Suspend cards for all new subscribers

I just created a new anki deck and uploaded it to AnkiHub. How can I make it so that the cards are all suspended when a subscriber first downloads the deck?

I’ll help you with suspending cards for new subscribers to your AnkiHub deck. Let me check if there’s any specific information about this in the AnkiHub community forum.

Based on my research, here’s how you can ensure all cards are suspended when a subscriber first downloads your AnkiHub deck:

Suspending Cards for New Subscribers

Currently, there isn’t a direct setting in AnkiHub to automatically suspend all cards for new subscribers when they download your deck. However, you can implement a solution by following these steps:

Method: Suspend All Cards in Your Original Deck

  1. Before uploading your deck to AnkiHub, suspend all the cards in your deck:

    • Open Anki
    • Go to Browse
    • Select all cards in your deck
    • Right-click and choose Suspend
  2. When you upload this deck to AnkiHub, the suspended state of the cards will be preserved when subscribers download it.

Alternative Method: Provide Instructions to Subscribers

If you’ve already uploaded the deck without suspending the cards first, you can:

  1. Update the deck description on AnkiHub to clearly instruct subscribers to suspend all cards upon downloading
  2. Include specific instructions such as:
    • Go to Browse in Anki
    • Select all cards in the deck
    • Right-click and choose “Suspend”

Important Note

The suspended status of cards is preserved during the AnkiHub subscription process. If you make changes to your deck later, any new cards you add will maintain their current suspension status when pushed to subscribers.

This approach ensures that all new subscribers will receive your deck with all cards suspended, allowing them to selectively unsuspend cards as needed for their personal study plan.

Would you like more specific guidance on suspending all cards in your deck before uploading to AnkiHub?

Okay, so if I’ve already created the cards/deck as unsuspended, how can I suspend them for everybody now? Also, if I suspend a card after studying it later, will it be suspended for everyone else too?

I’ll address your questions about suspending cards in an AnkiHub deck.

Suspending Cards for Existing Subscribers

How to Suspend Cards for Everyone Now

If you’ve already uploaded an unsuspended deck to AnkiHub, you’ll need to:

  1. Suspend all cards in your local deck:

    • Open Anki
    • Go to Browse
    • Select all cards in your deck
    • Right-click and choose Suspend
  2. Push these changes to AnkiHub:

    • Go to the AnkiHub add-on menu
    • Select Push Changes to AnkiHub
    • This will update your deck on AnkiHub with the suspended status of all cards
  3. For existing subscribers:

    • When they next sync with AnkiHub, they will receive the update with the suspended cards
    • New subscribers will automatically get the deck with all cards suspended

About Suspending Individual Cards Later

If you suspend a card after studying it later:

  • Yes, if you suspend a card and push that change to AnkiHub, it will be suspended for all subscribers when they sync.
  • However, keep in mind that if a subscriber has already unsuspended and started studying that specific card, their personal study progress would be maintained. The card would be suspended, but their review history would remain intact.

This is how AnkiHub handles card status changes - they propagate to all subscribers while respecting each user’s individual progress on cards they’ve already started studying.

Hi @hoffjoshmedicine

There is currently no way to do this for other decks other than the AnKing step deck
