Total Cards Issue

Hello!

ank2

For some reason, the total cards stat in my deck isn’t matching with the total amount of cards in Browse. I have toggled suspend/unsuspend on all cards. I have the newer 2025 settings that Anking posted on YT with FSRS.

Sometimes I find cards being randomly suspended, so I am curious on what could be causing random suspension of cards (or when new updates come out, the new cards just come in suspended?).

Thank you for your time!

I’ll help you understand the discrepancy between your total cards stat and what you see in Browse, as well as address the random suspension issue. Let me search for relevant information first.

Hi! I can help explain the discrepancy between your total cards stat and what you’re seeing in Browse.

Card Count Discrepancy Explained

This mismatch is actually a common issue that has a few potential explanations:

  1. Notes vs Cards: In Anki, there’s a difference between notes and cards. One note (like a cloze deletion note) can generate multiple cards. When viewing in Browse, make sure you’re set to “Cards” view, not “Notes” view, which might explain some of the difference.

  2. Suspended Cards: New updates from AnkiHub often come with new cards in a suspended state. This is intentional so that users can review them and decide when to unsuspend them for study.

  3. Browse View Settings: In your Browse window, check that you’re not accidentally filtering out some cards with search terms or filters.

Why Cards Get Randomly Suspended

There are a few reasons why cards might appear randomly suspended:

  1. AnkiHub Updates: When new content is added to the AnKing MCAT deck through AnkiHub, new cards typically come in suspended by default. This is a feature, not a bug - it prevents your daily review count from suddenly increasing without your knowledge.

  2. Sibling Cards: If you have “bury siblings” enabled in your deck options, related cards might be temporarily hidden during a study session.

  3. Browse View: Sometimes when looking at cards in Browse view, make sure you have it set to “Cards” instead of “Notes” to see the suspension status correctly.

Troubleshooting Steps

To fix the mismatch:

  1. In Browse view, make sure you’re viewing “Cards” not “Notes” (check the dropdown near the top of the window)
  2. Try using the search term is:suspended in Browse to see all suspended cards
  3. You can select all suspended cards and unsuspend them if you want them all available

For New Updates

It’s normal for new cards from AnkiHub updates to come in suspended. This gives you control over when to incorporate them into your study schedule.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions about managing your AnkiHub deck.

Hello,

Let’s address this issue first:

Can you share a screenshot of your entire screen when you’re in the Stats menu?
At the top of that screen, there’s an option to select which deck you’re viewing stats for—make sure you’re viewing the AnKing Step Deck, not your entire collection (if you have more decks). Have you tried selecting the AnKing Step Deck and then clicking Statistics?

Now let’s talk about this one:

You can actually control this behavior!

Go to AnkiHub on Anki’s main menu, then click Deck Management:


Select the AnKing Step Deck, and you’ll see this options:

You can adjust them to match your preferences for how new cards are handled.

Let me know if this helps! :blush:
