The text was in Hebrew if that helps

[akrulwich]

So was the title

[akrulwich]

Looks like the problem was a double quote in the title.‎ Hopefully could be supported in future,‎ thanks!

Thanks for this report! When I originally wrote this, Anki didn't support escaping quotation marks in searches, so it wasn't possible to make this work, but now it is so I will have a look at fixing this.

Thanks!

Any progress on the issue? I've got what looks like the same bug here :/

@k12ish Haven't gotten around to releasing a new version yet as I'm really busy with other projects right now, but you should be able to work around it just by removing any quotation marks from the title.

[k12ish]

My search was Explain why \(\ce{OH}\) is upfield?, which does not contain any quotation marks. I thought your code had a bug yesterday ( and I forgot to tell you the search term like an idiot )

It appears to be an upstream issue, so you're off the hook:

[sobjornstad]

@k12ish: I think you want \\(\\ce{OH}\\). The backslash has special meaning and thus needs to be escaped.

And to be clear, LPCG doesn't change anything with Anki's searching, so your problem is definitely not related to LPCG. This issue is caused by LPCG itself running a search internally with values provided by the user.
