Anki add-on: show new siblings in order / no same day spacing(randomization) for new siblings

This add-on won't work with the new v3 scheduler for technical reasons: The new scheduler is written in Rust whereas this add-on relied on overwriting Python functions and add-ons can't modify Rust code. . A new add-on would probably work by creating filtered decks. The upside is that such filtered decks can be synced to mobile. For details see https://forums.ankiweb.net/t/support-for-filtered-deck-with-specific-review-order/12885 and https://forums.ankiweb.net/t/ordering-cards-in-filtered-deck/16809 . READ THIS DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY . This description on this page only applies to the add-on for Anki version for 2.1. Say you have note1 (with the new cards 1,2,3) and note2 (with the new cards A,B). Anki will show you the cards in this order: 1,A,2,B,3 even if you have disabled "Bury related new cards until the next day". There is no option that allows you to show the cards in the order 1,2,3,A,B. This add-on allows you to disable this same-day spacing from the menu "Study". This add-on is intended to work only in very few situations. This add-on does not help to always study in a fixed order: 1. This add-on only works on new cards. In Anki cards can be in the state "new", "learning", and "review", see this section from the manual . When you rate a card Anki doesn't apply exactly the interval it shows about the buttons. Instead it slightly randomizes the intervals, see this section from the manual . So this add-on only makes sure that the first time a new card is shown they are right after each other in their proper order. The next time you see the cards they will probably not be in the same order and probably not be right after each other. Technically this add-on also affects some due reviews on the same day but this is negligible. 2. This add-on respects your settings for sibling burying. If in the deck options you have enabled "bury related new cards until the next day" this add-on has no effect. You can change this in the add-on settings. If you only want to study in a fixed order it's more complicated: There are some threads about this in the official forum at help.ankiweb.net ( anki.tenderapp.com ) and the Anki subreddit ( reddit.com/r/anki ). Basically it's not possible: Anki has no built-in option to remove the randomization/"fuzz" and add-ons can't work on mobile. An add-on would only help if you never used mobile (or if the add-on locally later adjusts reviews done on mobile). In the last 10 years no such add-on has been published. There's one unpublished (and untested) add-on that claims to help if you never use mobile, see here . I wouldn't use this add-on. # Limitations add-ons can't affect reviews on your smartphone. As mentioned before this add-on is only intended for new cards and by default respects your deck settings. If you don't understand the terms deck settings or the distinction between "new", "learning" and "review" cards check the manual or e.g. watch a video named Guide to Anki Intervals and Learning Steps . # bugs Please do not use reviews for bug reports or support requests. I don't get notified of your reviews, and properly troubleshooting an issue through them is nearly impossible (formatting is limited and I can't reply multiple times). If you find a bug let me know on github . other authors - lovac42 - Thomas Kahn (most German translations) technical background, compatibility - This add-on overwrites the built-in function "_burySiblings". It is not compatible to other add-ons that also overwrite/modify this function. As far as I see at the moment the only other add-on that changes this function is Bury related notes . - if future versions of Anki change the "_burySiblings" function you will run into problems. # Versions - 2020-01-01 better compatibility to other add-ons (minor fix) - 2019-12-23 option to enable permanently, German translations, ... - 2019-04-01 don't add menu a second time (minor fix) - 2019-03-29 initial release
