Reading: Can I protect my own edits when subscribing to the AnKing Step Deck?

Your edits are probably being overwritten because those fields are not protected in AnkiHub when the parent AnKing deck updates.

AnkiHub can preserve your personal edits during updates by using protected fields.

1. Check which fields are already protected

For the AnKing Step-style decks, AnkiHub automatically protects fields like:

• Lecture Notes
• Missed Questions
• Pathoma
• Boards and Beyond
• First Aid
• Additional Resources
• Physeo

These should not be overwritten by updates.

It does not automatically protect, for example:

• Text
• Extra
• Sketchy
• Pixorize

If you’re adding your images/notes into these unprotected fields, they can be changed by updates.

2. Protect the fields you’re editing

You can change what’s protected for your subscription:

1. Open the AnkiHub add-on in Anki.
2. Go to your AnKing deck’s subscription settings.
3. Find Protected fields.
4. Enable protection for the fields where you add:
   • your images,
   • lecture notes,
   • explanations, etc.
5. Sync with AnkiHub again.

There’s a step‑by‑step tutorial here (linked from the official FAQ):

Protecting Fields and Tags

What is “Protecting” A Field? Protecting a field allows you to add anything you want to a field without it being overwritten by AnkiHub Protecting Fields with Special Tags You can protect fields of individual notes using special tags. For example: AnkiHub_Protect::Front protects the Front field of the note that has this tag. (Use underscore if there are spaces in the field name). AnkiHub_Protect::All protects all fields of the note. These tags are only used in the add-on, not on the Website. T…
