Anki add-on: SmarterTypeField - Flexible matching for {{type:}} field

⏬🔽⏬ Adds four options to the {{type:}} field in Anki: ignore_case makes the type field ignore case when checking the answer. ignore_accents allows the type field to disregard accents and diacritics when checking the answer. For example, 'café' and 'cafe', 'naïve' and 'naive' are treated as the same. ignore_punctuations makes the type field ignore punctuation marks when checking the answer. ignore_extra_words accepts the answer as correct if the typed text contains the correct answer as a substring. Particularly useful for cloze deletion cards where users may type the full sentence instead of just the hidden phrase. The options can be used together or separately. FAQ How does this work? This add-on checks what you type against the correct answer without worrying about uppercase/lowercase letters, accents, or punctuation. For example, "ÀNKI!" and "Anki" can be treated the same based on your settings. It adds a script to your card templates that use the {{type:}} field without changing any existing code. This makes the add-on work on AnkiDesktop , AnkiDroid , and AnkiMobile . I installed the add-on, but it's not working. What do I do? First, you need to restart Anki after installing the add-on. Check the 'Back Template' of your card to see if the {{type:}} field is present and the script tag is added. It looks like this: If the script tag is present and it still doesn't work as expected, please open a support ticket above, labelled 'Issues' ; If on AnkiWeb, click 'Contact Author' . How to uninstall? Go to Addons->SmarterTypeField->Click "delete addon". This will also automatically clean up the script tag from your cards.
