[BUG]scheduler ignores the 'Maximum interval' setting of the deck's options

[MNastri]

I have a deck with cards that I want to appear every six months, so I set the maximum interval of the deck to 180 days. These cards are just interesting quotes/ideas that I like to see from time to time and I generally just press good on those cards. The cards stopped showing after I started using the scheduler. I checked what's happened and the scheduler just changed their interval from 6 months to 5, 6 years etc...

thank you in advance

You need to set 'Maximum interval' in the scheduler:

[MNastri]

OK. That works, thank you, but shouldn't the addon be able to check and get the decks' configuration automatically?

[L-M-Sherlock]

This add-on is based on the custom scheduling of Anki, which doesn't allow FSRS access to the decks' configuration.

[L-M-Sherlock]

If Anki custom scheduling could give API to get the decks' configuration, I will improve FSRS to get it automatically.
