Hi.
I’ve been using Ankihub for AnKing v12 for about two months. I’ve caught a few duplicates over this time, and I’m unsure about what to do about this because of the syncing aspect of ankihub. Basically, my question is is there any way to prevent a duplicate card from being deleted once a duplicate is caught?
For example, if there’s two duplicates with the same information on the card, and I only unsuspend one of them, what happens if that card is the one chosen to be deleted once the duplicate status is caught? I don’t want to lose my progress on cards and I don’t want to worry about the card that I’ve picked being removed after syncing.
Hope all of this makes sense, and I hope I’m not making a duplicate post but I couldn’t find a forum post with this exact question.
Thanks
If there was duplicate card A and B.
You chose to keep duplicate card A.
We as maintainers choose to keep duplicate card B.
Duplicate card A inevitably gets deleted since we decided to keep card B on ankihub (this occurs like once a year-ish i.e. not regularly)
Then you will keep both card A and B. All that will happen is card B will be able to be viewed on AnkiHub and can make suggestions to (since we kept it).
While card A wont be available to be viewed on AnkiHub (i.e. you cant suggest changes to it because it has now been deleted)
TLDR: nothing happens locally to your cards, you will be able to keep doing both of them, all that will happen is you wont be able to view it on ankihub anymore. Thats basically it!
I see. So basically any card with local card info isn’t deleted on syncing?
Yes exactly, everything stays, you get to decide whether to delete it or not!
