What is the recommended workflow from already existing .org files?

[michaelsjackson]

Imagine I have already an org-file with some headers and content, now here and there I want to convert some partial information into Anki notes, what is the recommended, meaning most practical workflow?

I would somehow keep the original file, then exactly under its header I would add a new subheader, adding the Anki note there, meaning keeping all together. Is this the best method? What are others using, thanks in advance for the hints and tips, thanks for sharing your work my friend, trying it the first time today, in Ubuntu 18.04. Need to play around a bit more.

Example: In my longer .org file, I find a paragraph with interesting content to be ankified, so I would duplicate this paragraph, I guess, then adding a subheader to that new paragraph, then need to add some more required paremeters with available anki-editor functions, I hope there are enough for this situation, then pushing to Anki and hoping all will go well, especially any PROPERTY lines above images are not nicely shown in Anki, so those should be deleted first, I guess. I am also typically using org-download for images, have to check if there is an option preventing this PROPERTY line above the image.

Thanks my friend again, greetings to Shanghai.

@michaelsjackson I think what you need to do is

• have an ANKI_DECK and ANKI_NOTE_TYPE properties for the heading you want to make a card out of,
• have a Front and Back titled sub-headings under that, and then
• run anki-editor-push-notes
