Strange Underlining

[nicholas13]

For some reason in one card in the MCAT deck everything is underlined blue, even though I made no changes to the card and all of my other cards look normal. Anyone know how to fix this?

Edit:

Just to add to this, I just noticed there’s the same type of issue with another card. It has everything in pink (which is like the styling for bolding if I’m getting it correct), even though only part of the card is bolded.

Hi Nicholas13,

I can see you’re experiencing an issue with blue underlining on one of your MCAT deck cards. This appears to be a formatting issue that might have been accidentally applied to the card’s HTML.

To fix this blue underlining problem, you can try the following steps:

1. Open Anki and go to the Browse window
2. Find the specific card (search for some unique text from the card)
3. Select the card and look at the editing area at the bottom
4. Click into the field with the underlined text
5. Select all the text that’s being underlined (Ctrl+A or Cmd+A)
6. Click the eraser icon in the formatting toolbar (this clears all formatting)
7. Alternatively, you can right-click and look for an option to remove the formatting or hyperlink

If the above doesn’t work, you can try editing the HTML directly:

1. With the card selected in the browser, click in the field
2. Press Ctrl+Shift+X (or Cmd+Shift+X on Mac) to open the HTML editor
3. Look for HTML tags like <u>, <a>, or style attributes with text-decoration: underline or color: blue
4. Remove these formatting elements while keeping the text content

If you continue having issues, you might want to try restoring that specific card from AnkiHub since you mentioned you didn’t make any changes to it.

Let me know if these steps help resolve the issue!

Hello,

I would be happy to help.

I show the card as displaying normally on my end. You might try resetting the card, and/or double-checking if you have the field protected:

You can select ‘reset local changes’ from here and see if that does the trick.

Give that a shot, let me know how you fare, and we’ll go from there and hopefully we can get you squared away.

Hi Brian,

Thanks for the suggestion!! It worked resetting local changes. Something must have just been messed up in there.
