Studying suspended cards via filtered deck

🙋 Support
1

hey everyone If I want to study a specific set of suspended cards—for example, cards related to a particular topic—I open the browser, click on the relevant tag, and filter to show only suspended cards. Then, I create a filtered deck and check the “reschedule cards based on my answers” option.

Is this the correct approach? Will these cards be reintegrated into my normal review cycle afterward?

Studying Suspended Cards via Filtered Deck

Yes, your approach is correct! When you want to study a specific set of suspended cards:

  1. Open the browser
  2. Select the relevant tag
  3. Filter to show only suspended cards
  4. Create a filtered deck from these cards
  5. Enable the “reschedule cards based on my answers” option

Will cards be reintegrated into your normal review cycle?

Yes, with the “reschedule cards based on my answers” option checked, these cards will be:

  1. Unsuspended automatically when added to the filtered deck
  2. Scheduled based on your performance in the filtered deck
  3. Returned to their original deck with their new scheduling information
  4. Fully integrated into your normal review cycle

This is a great approach when you want to selectively study suspended material on a specific topic and bring those cards back into your regular review schedule.

Additional tips:

  • Make sure you’re in “cards” view (not “notes” view) in the browser to properly see suspended status
  • You can use search operators like is:suspended tag:yourtag to find suspended cards with specific tags
  • The filtered deck will only include cards that match your search criteria

If you need to study suspended cards regularly for different topics, you can save time by rebuilding filtered decks with your preferred settings.

Alternative Approaches for Studying Suspended Cards

Yes, there are alternative approaches for studying suspended cards:

1. Custom Study Session

Instead of manually creating a filtered deck, you can use the Custom Study feature:

  1. Click on a deck in your deck list
  2. Click “Custom Study” at the bottom
  3. Select “Study by card state or tag”
  4. Choose the number of cards you want to study
  5. Click “Choose Tags” to select specific tags
  6. Use the filter option to include suspended cards
  7. Make sure to check “Reschedule cards based on my answers” if you want them integrated into your review schedule

2. Temporarily Unsuspend and Study in Original Deck

Another approach:

  1. In the browser, select the suspended cards you want to study
  2. Right-click and choose “Toggle Suspend” to unsuspend them
  3. Study them in their original deck
  4. If you want to suspend them again after studying, you can select them and toggle suspend again

3. Create Saved Searches for Quick Access

If you frequently study certain sets of suspended cards:

  1. Set up your search criteria in the browser (e.g., is:suspended tag:yourtag)
  2. Click “Save Current Search” in the browser
  3. Give it a name like “Topic X - Suspended”
  4. Next time, you can quickly access these cards from the saved searches dropdown

Each approach has advantages depending on your workflow. The filtered deck method you’re currently using is typically the most flexible when you want to both study and reschedule cards in one step.

Hello,

I would be happy to help. :slight_smile:

In order to study cards they will have to be unsuspended. Filtered decks, and decks in general, will not, as a rule, allow you to study cards that are suspended.

Please let me know if that answers your question, and if there’s anything else I can help with. :slight_smile:

if i unsuspend those cards and then place that search ‘‘term in filtered deck’’ is that a good approach to study a topic . the problem is i wanna study staphylococcus spp but i have also other spp cards i dont wanna suspend those too just to study staphylococcus i. if i do custom study those will also include reviws card would they not .

let me make it more clear : If I unsuspend those cards and then use a filtered deck with a specific search term, is that a good approach to study a particular topic? The issue is that I want to study Staphylococcus spp., but I also have cards related to other species that I don’t want to suspend just to focus on Staphylococcus. If I use the “Custom Study” option instead, wouldn’t that also include review cards, not just new or unsuspended ones?

Filtered decks can be a useful tool, yeah. Like any tool, it’s as good as the thing you’re using it for. :slight_smile:

If you want to study a particular topic, filtered decks is one such way to go about that. The advantage of filtered decks is precisely that; it allows you to filter.

Filtered decks, as a rule, will not include any cards that are new, or suspended. They can only include review cards, FWIW.
