Exam Notifier Not Showing

Adanze168 commented 1 year ago

Problem description

I got the exam notifier add-on for Anki (Windows 11) and the latest version. There isn't an option to set an exam date under deck options, nor the notification tab when studying. It's like nothing happened when I installed the add-on. There are the good, easy, hard, and again buttons when I study like the add-on described, but that was always there before I got the add-on.

Checklist

Please replace the space inside the brackets with an x if the following items apply:

[x] I've restarted Anki to see if it helps
[x] I've verified that I use the latest version of the add-on by redownloading it from AnkiWeb
[x] I've verified that I use the latest version of Anki by checking at https://apps.ankiweb.net#download
[x] I've tried to disable other add-ons to see if there are any interactions present
[x] My issue disappears when I hold shift while starting Anki.
[x] I've checked if anyone else reported this problem before by looking through the issue reports. I also checked to see if there is a section about known issues in the add-on description, documentation, or README.

Can you please delete the addon and try redownloading? https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/236593452

Try it on Anki 2.1.64 or 2.1.65. I did on 2.1.65 Qt6 and it is working

Adding here in case it's helpful; I can confirm the same issue; shows up just fine on 2.1.64 but upon downloading 2.1.66 is no longer visible in the deck options screen. The addon does, however, seem to still be functioning (as I still get the notifications if a card is overdue, I simply can't access the options on the appropriate screen).

I similarly deleted the addon and redownloaded from the above link. Problem persists.

Still love the addon, and all the work. Just noting here in the event that it's useful info for troubleshooting. :-)

Actually, I saw this one comment on the website for the addon and it just said to pull down shift when clicking the options under the gear from a deck, and the format will show.

Good call, that is a helpful workaround. Thanks. :-)

good to know! Thank you everyone for sharing. We'll test it on the new 23.10 version and ensure it works
