Hi there! It sounds like you’re experiencing an issue with your Easy Days feature shifting from Sunday to Monday after using the Postpone Cards add-on. Let me help you resolve this.

What’s happening

When you used the Postpone Cards add-on to delay your cards by one day, it seems to have affected how Anki tracks your weekly schedule. The “Easy Days” feature (which is part of the “Less Anki on Easy Days” functionality in FSRS helper) works by tracking specific days of the week, and the postponement appears to have shifted this tracking.

How to fix it

To get your Easy Days back on Sunday, you have a couple of options:

Option 1: Use the FSRS helper functions

You mentioned you have the FSRS helper add-on which has relevant functions:

  1. Open the FSRS helper add-on
  2. Look for the “Apply easy days for specific dates” option
  3. Select Sunday to re-establish it as your Easy Day

Option 2: Advance cards to realign the schedule

Since postponing moved everything forward a day, you can use the “Advance cards in all decks” function in FSRS helper to move everything back:

  1. Open FSRS helper
  2. Select “Advance cards in all decks”
  3. Set it to advance by 1 day (this will counteract the previous postponement)

Preventing this in the future

When using the Postpone Cards add-on, be aware that it can interfere with features that rely on specific weekday scheduling like Easy Days. If you need to postpone cards in the future:

  1. Make a note of your Easy Day settings before postponing
  2. After postponing, check if your Easy Day has shifted
  3. Use the FSRS helper’s “Apply easy days” function to realign if needed

Alternatively, you might consider using Anki’s built-in filtered decks for temporary adjustments rather than postponing all cards, as this might have fewer side effects on your schedule.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
