Problem copying cards to a new deck

Problem copying cards to a new deck

Postby rlpfromak » Thu Dec 04, 2025 6:27 pm

I noticed a problem today for the first time creating a new deck and copying cards into it. The problem is that my Spaced Repetition settings (e.g. number due, percent completed) are not getting copied into the new deck. In the past, the new deck preserved these settings; today the copied deck is showing up with the default Ordered option.

My steps are: Mode>Multi-select>Select All>Copy Cards.

(I notice there is “Clear Statistics” button in the “Mode” window and it is turned off.)

I also recall in the past getting a message asking something like whether I wanted to override some settings when I copied the cards, but I don’t see that message any more.

Could I have changed some settings resulting in this change? Any other idea what is causing the problem?

I have to retract this question. All of my settings are getting copied to the new deck The new deck starts out in the default Random order but when I switched to Spaced Repetition all the old settings were preserved.

Hi rlpfromak,

I'm sorry for the super slow response.

Glad it's working for you OK! Yeah, the cards should maintain their statistics, but the spaced repetition setting is a "deck" setting, so that needs to get handled separately from the card copy.
