Simply makes {{type:}}
answers case insensitive.
Simply install the addon on your AnkiDesktop. The changes made by the addon will apply to both AnkiDesktop and AnkiDroid.
Simply add this line to the Back Template of your Anki Cards.
<script src="https://derdemystifier.github.io/AnkiIgnoreCase/ignoreCase.min.js"></script>
If you install the addon. This will apply even when you don't have Internet access. But it won't if you chose manual install; Since the script tag above fetches the script, you will need Internet access. If that's not always available, then:
- Copy the content of the file
ignoreCase.min.js
.- Paste it in the Back Template of your Anki card like so:
<script> (()=>{"use strict";!function() ....etc..... </script>↑ OR ↓
- Save the content of the file
ignoreCase.min.js
in thecollection.media
folder as_ignoreCase.min.js
.- Paste this HTML tag in the Back Template of your Anki card like so:
<script role='ignoreCase' src="_ignoreCase.min.js"></script>
The Back Template is the other side of the flashcard, it's the code that's rendered when you show the answer.
- Click
Tools
in the Anki Toolbar.- Select the Card that has the
{{type:}}
fields.- Click
Cards
button on the right.- TA DAAAAAA!
As you would think, simply compares your input with the answer without matching case. So ANKI ↔ Anki. Technically speaking, it injects a script tag to your card templates that have a {{type:}} field. It doesn't touch any existing code in the template. The script enables the addon to work both on AnkiDesktop and AnkiDroid.
Go to Addons->ignoreCase->Config and change "enabled" with false, then restart Anki. That's it! You can then delete the addon if you wish by hitting the uninstall button. If you had opted for manual install, then you need to manually uninstalling by retracing the steps. Basically, delete the
<script>
tag from your card(s).
I've tested on Anki Version 2.1.48 and Version 2.1.63. I would assume it to be working in later versions as well. If not, please open a support ticket above, labelled Issues.
