Description
A progress bar that shows your progress in terms of passed cards per review session.
SCREENSHOTS
Default settings:
Bottom location, rounded corners:
VIDEO TUTORIAL
The customization and use of the Progress Bar add-on is demonstrated in the following video (alongside other similar add-ons):
COMPATIBILITY
Initial tests have shown this add-on to both work on Anki 2.0.x and Anki 2.1.x. However, as the Anki 2.1.x line of releases is still in beta, I cannot provide any kind of official support for this platform. Please do not report issues with Anki 2.1 in the review section below. Instead, please report all issues you encounter on GitHub.
BEHAVIOR
The bar can't be seen from the list of decks. It opens in a deck's overview page, and, by default, the bar goal for a session is the total new, lapsed, and due cards in the deck at that point. Upon completion, the bar remains full as you're taken to the deck's overview state. If you leave the review state otherwise, the bar resets.
CONFIGURATION
By making small changes at the top of the add-on's source code, you can change the colors, make the corners more rounded, decide whether to see the percentage (e.g., "50%"), or alter the bar's orientation (horizontal or vertical), location (which of the window's four sides), and direction (which way it moves).
The configuration section will also allow you to customize how your card tally is calculated. By default, both new cards, cards in learning, and review cards are factored in. Each of these queues can be individually toggled off by setting its respective variable to 
GitHub.

Very good addon, 05/06/2021 guide explains how to install despite incompatibility
You can make it look like a boss bar by editing the python file
Just change colors : qbg = "#FF0000" # Background color of progress bar.
qfg = "#1E1E1E" # Foreground color of progress bar.
Then change maxWidth to 10 and change invertTF to True
Your boss battle can begin!

The installation didn't work at first using the code shown in the description (2091361802).
However going through the reviews, I fell on one that showed an alternative way, and it worked (the review in question was made on 05.06.2021). Check it out. Works great!

if you updated/reinstalled Anki and this addon doesn't work any more, please follow the steps written on the comment from 05/06/2021.

Go to https://github.com/glutanimate/anki-addons-misc and download the masterzip file "Download a copy of the full repository zip archive" the same file you get from that line highlighted in blue. Extract the files and keep them in downloaded files for an easy access point.
Go to the windows bar and search up %APPDATA%\Anki2 and copy the entire review_progress_bar folder over into addons 21( you find the progress bar in the src)
Then close and restart anki it should work.
Edited
You guys should try to understand that every new update breaks lots of addons.

I love this! I just installed it from github and went into the files to hopefully figure out what I needed to change in order to make it look how I want to. (I've never learned python.)
The comments in the code really are helpful. I can't believe you took the time to type all of that out dude. True dedication.

Absolutely fantastic add on and a great developer! If it's not working for you, make sure you have the latest stable version (I think that's 2.1.40 at the time of writing) and download the 'master' zip file from github, as suggested in other reviews. Follow the instructions and it works like a charm
on
All of your add-ons, including this one are absolute blessing. God bless you. You are savior. Breaks my heart to see the downvotes.

Works on 2.1.35 had to manually add zip from the github though.

I received word about a month ago that they fixed the issue... however, it has been approx. a month since I receive this message. I am not trying to be a jerk, but seriously, we need this. I will update to a thumbs up once the update is available.

Doesn't work on version 2.1.42 :(

It does not work in Version 2.1.38 (355e4cd5). We urgently need to update the tool.

Good stuff. Nice to see how far you are doing. Very encouraging when you are doing a lot of reps but most of them are "again"s so your progress does not increase.
Those that downvote for being "outdated". It works. Copy the one from the Github page. Or else don't use a computer. Like the working version is there you just have to get it. How ungrateful can you be?

Hey author, don't mind the impolite comments, you have done much for the Anki community. I hope you are well and you have time to return to contribute more in the future. For those who are looking for an alternative, the remaining time add-on is really great and also very informative.

People donated to your Patreon and you took the money and ran you piece of shit. This add-on has been broken for longer than I can keep track of.
on
Not supported for the 2.1.42 :|
on
It worked fine but almost 4 years have passed since the last update.
on
I am on version 2.1.35 and the add-on is working for me. I updated the source code from GitHub pull request #152 along with the meta.json file. I tried to detail how to fix the issue in GitHub issue #163, or look at the add-on rating from 1/16/2021 below.

Thank you for your continued work!

I need help, I get an error message when putting the code "The code is not valid or the plugin is not available for your version of anki". Thank you for your answer

want it to be updated

Great plugin. It seems to be working fine with Anki latest version using this updated file:
https://github.com/glutanimate/anki-addons-misc/blob/64c3c50d78f729a49aa90eca42f5f0c7062e1983/src/reviewer_progress_bar/reviewer_progress_bar.py
and updating the meta.json file to this:
{"name": "Progress Bar", "mod": 1504033211, "min_point_version": 0, "max_point_version": -38, "branch_index": 0, "disabled": false, "conflicts": []}
Obviously don't expect support from the author if you do this.

Downgraded to 2.1.26 for this add-on and it works flawlessly - would love for it to be updated some time soon.
Thanks!

It´s broken, please fix it

Please update

Add-on is great for motivation to get you through a deck. Hopefully, there will be an update soon for the current Anki-version.

Seems to be a good one. Looking forward to the update so that I can also use it, though.
on
Excellent way of self motivating during review blocks. Thank you.
on
please update
edit: Appreciate that an update is in the works, and apologies that you've felt disrespected. I've been running on 2.1.26 specifically for this add on since February. While I think folks have been patient for an update, I understand that being down-voted into oblivion sucks. This is one of my favorite add ons, so I'm looking forward to updating my rating when I can update Anki and continue to use this add on.

Comment from author before post was edited
Guys, leaving four downvotes in a row with "Please update" is not a very polite nor effective way to get add-on authors to do something. The update is in progress and will be available when it's ready. Until then you're more than welcome to use Anki 2.1.26 which is clearly marked as the last supported Anki version above. Generally speaking: If you like to use a lot of Anki add-ons, it's best to stay a few versions behind as new Anki updates constantly break add-ons.

I need an undapte pleaseeeeeeeee, It doesn't work with the latest version
on
Version doesnt work with 2.1.35
on
doesnt work for anki 2.1.3

eagerly awaiting add on update!

I think it´s a good add-on. I am waiting for the update.
on
This is my favorite add on by far. I recently was forced by anki to update my application to a newer version that is past the supported version for this add-on. Would love an update.
on
needs an update i think!
on
Needs to be updated. Cannot download. : (
on
Please .... Update this addon >>>>>>>>>
on
Hate to dislike this nice addon. But the only thing I didn't like, and which was a deal breaker is the fact that the bar resets everytime you leave. I have decks with more than 400, taking about 2 hours to complete, I can't possible do them in one go. And the fact that the bar resets, makes it feel like a lost progress.
Would be great if you also count the review count as well, so the total would be. New+lapsed+due+reviewed.

We know you are working hard on an update. I check in almost every day and am looking forward to it.
Thank you for your hard work on this add-on and many others. I'm sorry for the degenerates.

Not Working in Anki 2.1.30 (06a69c25). Don't know how to fix like someone here in the comments said. :(

Applying/downloading the version from liuzikai made this work. This is still a great add-on.

Excellent means of tracking progress! Love how configurable the progress bar is.

It was a great add-on (hence the "thumb up"), but unfortunately, it doesn't work with 2.1.30, the lastest version. There is an open GitHub issue here: https://github.com/glutanimate/anki-addons-misc/issues/146

Tks!

Thank you! Simple and effective!

In version 1.3, the bar does not show the right value/percentage for me.
It can be fixed by updating the code (replacing it) inside the "reviewer_progress_bar.py" add-on file with the one found here (currently version 2.0):
https://github.com/glutanimate/anki-addons-misc/blob/master/src/reviewer_progress_bar/reviewer_progress_bar.py
Additionally, if someone wants to show the percentage value, it is needed to edit two lines (the 2nd one below makes sure that the % text fits inside the progress bar):
showPercent = True # Show the progress text percentage or not.
maxWidth = "20px" # (e.g. "5px". default: "")

Awesome!

Great app, shows your progress in each deck!
on
Literally a life-saver! This add-on combined with Speed Focus Mode has forced me to sit and get through my cards. The bar keeps me from going back to the deck home page and the speed focus mode keeps me from zoning out. Together I am being so efficient.

Buggy

Very helpful.

Progressed faster than the deck. Showed it was done when it was not.

Love this. I would love to not lose my progress when I take a break, go to home screen, and sync.
on
genius！
on
Visuel très pratique !
on
Great add on, and the developer is a swell fella!
on
Using a Macbook Air - after adding Progress Bar, my Anki crashed 4 times in ~10 hours, after never having crashed s/p months of use. Pretty bummed about it because the concept is strong. Will wait for bug fixes before trying again.
Comment from author
Sorry to hear that. Unfortunately it's very difficult to investigate issues like this without more information (like the exact error message, your system and Anki setup, and more). The thing is: Over close to 2 years of the add-on being out, this is the first report to that effect. So whatever problem you're facing is likely to be a combination of factors specific to your system, which I would need to know more about in order to attempt reproducing the fault. If you could shoot me a message at ankiglutanimate@gmail.com, or open up a support thread on the Anki forums (https://anki.tenderapp.com/discussions/add-ons → requires no registration), that would be a great first step to go down that troubleshooting journey. Thanks!

Good motiviation for completing daily study
on
It doesn't work in Mac OS. After uninstalling and restarting, works fine. Can it also show percentage completed?

Great but the "config" panel doesn't appear in anki 2.1. You have to manually find and open "reviewer_progress_bar.py"
on
Simple and helpful! Great job!
on
Doesn't work for 2.1x. Even when I disable the learning cards, my bar always ends up randomly somewhere.
on
This looks like a good idea for a mod, but it does not count cards correctly. Would love it if it worked.
on
Great !
on
This tool is very interesting but I have a problem with it: when I leave the deck I'm studying for a break and suppose that I have studied 50% of the cards then when I go back the percentage is back to 0%, instead of 50%. Is there a way to save the progress I made freezing the % in some way? Thanks! Anyway your work is amazing!
on
Gives a satisfying feeling during review, unlike the card counts at the bottom.
on
very nice
on
Give a sense of place and location.
on
Nice one. Edit these colors in order to make it fit Night Mode addon (line 45):
qtxt = "aliceblue" # Percentage color, if text visible.
qbg = "#333333" # Background color of progress bar.
qfg = "#17b30a" # Foreground color of progress bar.
qbr = 0 # Border radius (> 0 for rounded corners).
qtxt = "aliceblue" # Percentage color, if text visible.
qbg = "#333333" # Background color of progress bar.
qfg = "#17b30a" # Foreground color of progress bar.
qbr = 0 # Border radius (> 0 for rounded corners).
on
The bar acts strangely by default, but if I use "includeLrn = False", it becomes much better. Learning cards stop to be counted, but it makes the bar act much more "normal" (does not go backwards).
Overall good addon, I like it!

With the big deck, it's very useful
on
it jumps up and down and at the end its not 100% its somewhere in the middle
Comment from author
Try setting "includeLrn = False" in the settings, as recommended further up in the reviews. Most of the issues with the add-on are caused by cards in learning jumping back and forth between different card queues. Relevant bug report: https://github.com/glutanimate/anki-addons-misc/issues/33
on
Good but often goes backwards even when I press Good... Is there a problem ?
on
Very nice!
on
excelente
on
It works fine for me. Excellent add on.
on
If you have a small deck, it somehow works though it behaves a little unpredictable. If you have a very big deck, it just does not work at all.
on
Beautiful, but it doesn't work
The progress bar is beautiful, you can customise it, which is really cool. However, the progress bar simply doesn't work, when I finish my deck, the progress bar doesn't display 100%. Sometimes I click on "good" and the progress bar does nothing and sometimes it moves even backwards!
