AnkiConnect is compatible with the latest stable (2.1.x) releases of Anki; older versions (2.0.x and below) are no longer supported. See the AnkiConnect homepage for more information.

I updated to the newest version of Anki that was released today and I'm not sure if there is an issue but I've added many addons before and can't get this to work. I put in the code and click ok and it does nothing. Sorry for the hassle, I just thought maybe the update caused an issue:).
on 1682781569
Quick tips, if you are using WSL2 and your anki is on the windows host - the magic trick is setting port forwarding on windows: Run powershell as admin and then run `netsh interface portproxy add v4tov4 listenport=8765 listenaddress=0.0.0.0 connectport=8765 connectaddress=127.0.0.1` Then in wsl2, you can test with `curl windows_ipv4_ip` .... took me several hours and going through all kinds of unsuccessful solution everywhere and finally find this one out. Great adds-on, I can finally create decks effectively!!!!!

This is a great extension for developers! Thanks a lot for developing this extension :)
on 1678748046
AnkiConnect is, in my opinion, the single most useful add-on available for Anki. It opens up a bunch of Anki internals, and lets other applications use them. The myriad uses of this extension are truly astounding. Personally, I have used it for automatic card creation through browser extensions, external statistical analysis, integration with a front-end, and generation (and linking) cards to my notes in org-mode.

It's an amazing work that this guy did, Obsidian/Logseq provide much better functionality for editing & building a database of knowledge, but they still lack good Spaced Repetition funcitonality. To be able to combine both with this plugin is amazing, thanks a lot!
on 1653182188
Love it. Really helps to create flashcards for words as I learn them.

New version suddenly decided to stop working with 2.1.49, although I've been using 2.1.49 with AnkiConnect for a few months now with no problems whatsoever.

Edit: works now. Thanks for the timely fix.
on 1652648708
Great, thanks for fixing whatever the issue with version 2.1.49 or above was so quickly. Seems to be working perfectly for me once again!

Used to work fine in 2.1.49 ... until it updated itself to say it only worked up to 2.1.44.

This plugin is extremely handy! I managed to write a simple command-line utility that generates bulk text-to-speech for many different note fields just in one evening! If I wrote a full-fledged Anki GUI plugin, it would take ages as I'm not fluent in Python & Qt.

Thank you very much for the effort you put to develop and maintain it!

At this moment, using the AnkiConnect addon, the Back Template of the card is not created well. But you can edit it and copy it from here: https://github.com/dobladov/youtube2Anki

I prefer to work on my listening, so I removed this two lines from the Front Template:
{{text}}
<br>

And put in the Black Template:
{{FrontSide}}

Makes anki run slowly for me, but this is yomichans fault. I have a large deck and it might be related to yomichans duplicate check

For Mac User

Anki 2.1.6 2.1.7 changed it's app domain name,

so if you want to change the app nap for anki

1. Start the Terminal application.
2. Execute the following commands in the terminal window:

defaults write net.ankiweb.dtop NSAppSleepDisabled -bool true
defaults write org.qt-project.Qt.QtWebEngineCore NSAppSleepDisabled -bool true
3. Restart Anki.

Great add-on. One drawback that I don't know if it's the fault of Anki or the add-on:
I can't figure out how to make fields keep new line characters when sending them to Anki. Adding both \n and \r\n to the field doesn't result in Anki breaking the text up into lines.

And I'm so happy that there's a firefox extension. I've always been using chrome since I assumed the more niche extensions would never make their way to firefox. But this is the only "killer" extension I need, and I didn't even check if it was on firefox lol.

Cheers for the good work.
