Description
Bug Report: https://github.com/cjdduarte/Free_Weekend/issues
#### New Change:
+ limited to anki 2.1.35
Warning: this addon may conflict with other addons that use Anki's scheduler (load balancer, Load Balanced Scheduler, and so on).
If you want to use this addon integrated with Load balance, use this alternate version.
Information 1: The addon does not change past schedules, only new schedules.
Information 2: The addon does not change cards in learning.
About:
Select Sunday if you do not want to study on this day or any other day of the week and this addon will select another day in the rescheduling.
You will leave this day free for other tasks or rest.
An Anki Fuzz based range will be used to avoid impacting Anki's algorithm as described in the manual:
"After you select an ease button, Anki also applies a small amount of random “fuzz” to prevent cards that were introduced at the same time and given the same ratings from sticking together and always coming up for review on the same day. This fuzz does not appear on the interval buttons, so if you’re noticing a slight discrepancy between what you select and the intervals your cards actually get, this is probably the cause"
Fuzz example:
- Review less than 3 days: will not choose another day.
- Review in 3 days: Choose between days 2 and 4.
- Review in 7 days: Choose between days 5 and 9.
- Review in 90 days: Choose between days 86 and 94.
- Cards you forgot, and return within 2 days it does not choose another day.
Exceptions:
If the fuzz range is too small or does not exist (review less than 3 days) to satisfy the parameter condition, the day of the week may be selected for review of the card.
#### Configuration:
- Change the values in config module code for your need.
- The default installation value is to skip Sunday and the log message is disabled.
- You can enter more than one day of the week, separated by commas, but remember that this can overwhelm the other days.
It is now possible to enter specific days (holidays, and so on).
Anki 2.1
Anki 2.0
Open the free_weekend.py file in the add-ons folder and change the parameters
It is now possible specific groups of decks are not affected by this addon.
Enabling log, the addon will show on the screen which days are being ignored when replying to the card.
Or it will display a message that the fuzz range has not met the required minimum condition.
Values: 0=OFF, 1=Only exceptions, 2=Basic, 3=More details

Loved this add-on, wish it would be updated to work with current anki!
on
Loved this add on. A great way to take a day off per week without having 2x cards the next day. Updated my anki and now it doesn't work (as clearly stated by the author). Would be amazing if you could get this running with V3. Looking forward to using again someday.
on
Does not work at all!! I have anki 2.1.49 and this addon is just NOT it, i have read everything listed in the instructions and have done everything instructed. Idk why this addon is being promoted if it doesnt even work anymore
also side note im not even using the V3 scheduler, the creator of this addon every time blames it on V3. But im not even using that.
find another addon, one that works

Great add-on. However, I updated to 2.1.49, and I can't get the add-on to change the review. My config says Saturday and Sunday free, and I get the message saying:
"min=2022/01/14 max=2022/01/15 sel=2022/01/14 ignored=2022/01/15"
But, the card is still scheduled for 2022/01/15. How can I fix this problem?

Still works great for me on 2.1.48 with the v2 scheduler. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work with the v3 scheduler enabled so hopefully it gets updated for that eventually.

Haven't tested it on v3.
I'll do tests and if that's the case, I'll apply a fix.

This has been a great add-on. I attempted to use the integrated load balancer version, but it kept scheduling cards on the day of the week it was supposed to be ignoring, regardless of the fuzz interval. Does anyone know if it needs an update? Currently on 2.1.44.
on
I love the idea but can someone just help me make sure I'm using this add on correctly? Forgive me, i'm pretty new to Anki.
From what I understand, already-scheduled cards (say from last week) that happen to fall on the day I want off (Saturdays) cannot be affected by the add-on and those cards will still show up on Saturdays. Learning cards(cards in steps?) will also not be affected by the add-on either.
I'm just confused because I have Saturday (day 5) set as the day per week I want off, I have the log set to "3" (more details), and I still keep getting review cards on Saturdays? Like my Heat Map shows at the beginning of my week all my Saturdays are off and nothing is due, but as I do cards daily, the Saturdays fill up?
I checked my "due" cards for this Saturday and it seems they are cards from decks I started mid-late last week and continue to do this week... those are "learning" cards that are still in steps, right? No old cards from like 2 months ago/older are on the Saturdays because they're just review cards, so can I assume the add-on is working correctly?

I don't understand how to see if this app is working. I downloaded it 2 days ago and I can see it is still adding notecards to Sundays after the download. this is what I have in the config: {
"days_week": [
6
],
"log_tooltip": 3,
"specific_days": [
"9999/12/31"
]
}
I don't see a log anywhere that is telling me if this is working as described. any help?

@author - Question:
The Add-On is working in general, but its freeing the wrong day for me. I have the add-one for a couple of weeks now and I've put in (6) as the value for Sunday so that Sundays will be free but for some reason it keeps freeing Tuesdays instead of Sundays.
I've also looked into the Anki-calendar which always says the correct date and day so im a bit confused as to why the add-on does not free the Sunday. Any help would be very much appreciated. :)

Has worked really well ever since I started using it. Thank you. Am looking into the new add-on it inspired that works with mobile also. (https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1222550498)

I have loved using this add-on for pretty much this whole year. I have been looking at my schedule in the future and my sundays are now having hundreds of cards due. I updated anki to 2.1.35 recently so I'm wondering is this add-on has compatibility with this version of anki or if this is why it has stopped working properly?
on
Great add-on. I'd love it to have option to include cards in learning phase, especially after configurable interval as i have really long learning steps :(
on
dose it conflict with the add on "Put all due learning cards first"??
Comment from author
Reading the description of the addon, no.
It changes the algorithm in a part where it doesn't work.

Could you provide an example for the log_tooltip config? I can't understand what it is supposed to do.
Comment from author
It just shows a message in Anki's footer.

would love this if I could figure it out. I do have a load balencer installed and tried to use the GitHub version. I put it in a folder with the other anki add one but nothing happened? might not have been the right folder. Is there any way you could upload instructions with pictures?
Comment from author
The add-on works silently, but if you want to know if it is working, enable logging to value 3 on the add-on configuration page.
See at the end of the addon explanation that there are 3 possible values: 0=OFF, 1=Only exceptions, 2=Basic, 3=More details"
Or call me on github.

Great add-on, something that I've been looking for for a long time! Just a little question: You mentioned that the add-on will not work on AnkiDroid (because mobile devices don't have add-on support). However, as I'm using Anki both on desktop and on my mobile, what does this mean for scheduling conflicts? Will syncs reverse the add-on's rescheduling?
Comment from author
There will be no conflict.
When responding on ankidroid, he will be able to schedule for the days of the weekend.
The addon works when replying to the card. It does not change cards already scheduled.

I really want to use the Free Weekend w/ Load Balancer integrated, but can't get the add-on to load into my Anki 2.1... Anybody have any ideas? When I click install from file, it only searches for .ankiaddon files and the download from github only has .py files. Help.
Comment from author
You must copy all the files from github into a folder and put it inside the addons folder.
on
1/20 - Realized why this is not working: it does not work with learning cards (aka cards with steps), but that is the description. I spend more time than most people working on cards with steps because I have an extra layer of steps (my steps: 15 1440 5760), so those are the ones that need to be pushed away from my day off. This would be really helpful if it could be adjusted as such.
1/22 - To be fair, this add-on has more customizability than load-balancer alone and works well. I'll give it the thumbs up for that, but please put together an add-on that includes step cards.

It is explained in the description of the add-on that it does not adjust the cards in learning to respect the configured steps, only in revision mode.
Negative evaluation is not fair when the complement does what it intends to do and is explained.
But thanks for the comment. I will evaluate an option and not respect the steps.
Please open an issue on github.

I want to start using the alternate version https://github.com/cjdduarte/Free_Weekend_Load_Balancer, but am confused, I made folder for it in my anki add ons folder and added the files, and it appears in the add on menu, so no issue there.
I have Load Balanced Scheduler installed ( https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/208879074 ), do I need to disable it?
Does this work with the V2 Scheduler?
Thanks!

Comment from author
Yes, this version of github implements the "Load Balanced Schedule" in the code. You must disable it to avoid conflict.
It works in "v2 Scheduler".

Not sure if I'm the only one, but I finally finished figuring this out after getting frustrated that it was not working for me. The load balancer free weekend version of this DOES NOT need the original load balancer to work! You only need the modified free_weekend. They do not have to interact with each other as I had previously thought. Thank you so much for this add-on!
Edit: Also, don't forget your zeroes when adding single digit months/days in the specific dates section! e.g. "2020/01/31"
Hope these tips help!

Thank you, trying it out right now. Does it also apply on Ankidroid?
Comment from author
Unfortunately not. No addon works on Ankidroid.
on
Does not work. In the past week there have been no fewer than 41 cards added to the day I needed off, based on the review heatmap projections for that day, where these 41 cards have been added to that specific day after adding this add-on. This is really disappointing.
Comment from author
do you use load balance addon or similar? Could you provide the configuration of the steps you are using for new cards?
Remembering that only works on PC version. if you use it on your phone, it won't work.
Also remembering that new cards that have several steps do not work as explained by the addon.
Please open a ticket at: https://github.com/cjdduarte/Free_Weekend/issues so you can evaluate.

Hi, the add-on does not reprogram cards already scheduled, it works the moment you respond to the cards.
Example: If you installed the addon today and there are already 20 cards scheduled for next Sunday, these cards will continue on this day. But the new cards that you start to study from today will not be scheduled for this day.

Been wanting to have a day off for a while and now I can :)
You can still get cards on your elected day off if it's new or you fail a card, but it sounds like the add-on can't override the internal Anki workings here.
Shame it can't just bump the card a day forward in this instance, but it's not the end of the world.

I would love to use this add-on, but can't get it to work. What does it mean, that the add-on only applies to new schedules and that cards in learning aren't affected? Would i have to restart all of my cards? What do i need to do, to keep all the learning progress I've made and still use the add-on?
@author Thanks for the quick response!

It works silently. if you want to see it working, enable the logs. it does not change what is already scheduled before the addon installation. But when you respond to this card in the future, it will allocate correctly. Learning cards do not use the fuzz so I can not reallocate them. This is internal to Anki.
You do not need to restart the cards. Just continue studying normally. He will be scheduling the cards that you normally study, just do not change what has already been previously scheduled before installing the addon.

I don't know how setting the add-on. I would like you to make a video explaining the setting. Anki Version 2.0.52
I am grateful for your reply.

You should edit the file free_weekend.py in the add-ons folder and change the parameters as instructed above.
I've improved the above description and in the source code itself to make it easier to change.
Hope this helps.
