one more thing, are there really two separate “Common Japanese” fields in that level? Or the first one is also a bug caused by shifted content from the previous word?
Ah…that makes sense. That’s too bad. Nothing you can do about that though. Looks like I’ll just have to copy my notes manually.
That said, Memrise claims that if they ever do close down the community course site, they’ll provide a way for us to download our data. Hopefully that means all of it, regardless of whatever limitations they’ve built intentionally or otherwise into the review interface.
Does it show up for you when you are reviewing the course?
Now that you mention it, no it doesn’t. Not in this course’s case anyway. Just tried it.
edit: after playing around with it, it seems this field needs to be <100 characters to show up in the review interface properly. which doesn’t make sense because I’ve had longer on other courses
Also, what does your csv look like when it’s opened in plain text editor (notepad)?
The same just with commas separating fields instead of blank spaces

That must be a bug. There aren’t two seperate fields on my end.
What about all those empty lines and the misplaced “part of speech” field from the first word? I’m still somewhat puzzled by that one. I tried to reproduce this by making a similar test course and downloading it from my account, but the long attribute still did not appear in the downloaded csv (it worked as expected on Memrise – I can see the content of the long field in the editor, but it is not shown during reviews of the course). Could it be, that you accidentally pasted into the spreadsheet after it was downloaded?
In the editor, or this doesn’t show up for you in the reviewer as well?
17 rows of commas and then the misplaced field
You might be right. I just re-downloaded the course to check and the csv i just got doesn’t have any randomly misplaced data in it. 
Just a blank field where the data should be, which is what usually happens.
In the editor it does not exist. But in the reviewer it shows up the same for me as it does for you.

Hello, I just used your extension to convert two memrise courses into Anki, but despite having uploaded all the audio files and my flashcards showing that they contain audio and having made sure all audio-related Anki settings are enabled, somehow for both of my decks, there is no audio played nor an option to play audio. No files are missing either. Any ideas on how to fix it?
Can you provide more detail on the steps you performed to import the courses and how you tested your audio?
Also, what card template do you use? Can you share its code for the front and the back of the card? Maybe the issue is that the audio field is simply not used anywhere in the layout.
Is the issue specific to mobile app, or does it occur on the desktop as well?
Thank you for the response.
I have actually sorted the issue since after delving a bit deeper. I think the issue was where I made fields based on the columns of the .csv, for some reason the audio didn’t work, even though everything seemed to be in the right place. I downloaded [Anki Templates.apkg] and changed my note types to that, and despite for example the ‘pronunciation’ field (based off the respective column in the .csv) now being in the ‘video’ field, it works fine. I must have misunderstood the instructions or something. Either way, all is resolved.
Thanks again.

That’s likely because you didn’t set the field mapping during import accordingly. But that’s not hard to fix after the fact anyway. To rename the field just open any note in the card browser (Browse button in the top center menu on desktop), then select any of the respective cards and press Fields... in the editor. You can change “Video” to “Pronunciation” here.
Then, if you don’t see it on the back of the card (since the template does not include it there by default), from the same place in the editor click Cards... and add the following code alongside the rest of the similar-looking extra fields on the back side of each Card Type you need it in:
{{#Pronunciation}}
<div class="mem-field no-alts">
<label>Pronunciation</label>
<h4>{{Pronunciation}}</h4>
</div>
{{/Pronunciation}}
In any case, glad you were able to resolve everything on your own.
First off, a huge thanks for making such an incredibly useful tool. I’ve been terrified Memrise might drop community courses any day and I’d have lost thousands of words (an hundreds of hours of effort).
One thing I’ve noticed when downloading is that if a field has too much data in it, then it simply won’t be in the resulting csv file.
In this example the field with an X will not be in the file, but everything else will be. This “missing data” is consistent with all fields that have a “larger” amount of characters.
It would be great if it could be fixed, but I doubt it’s a big issue for many people either way.
Is it the same issue reported by @pampam55550?
In short, this data is omitted by Memrise itself, and only visible from the editor, but not from any of the course pages, which is where the extension downloads it from. Can you check and see if in your case the large fields are being displayed when you are learning or reviewing the respective words?
You are correct! When i review the words large fields of data are omitted on memrise too.

Hello @Eltaurus, can you please help me download Memrise course #5606272 including the synonyms in the database? The CourseDump2022 extension only captured the following attributes: Chapter #, Newspaper, Arabic Roots, Present Stem / Root, Preposition, Level tags. I am missing the following attributes: Extra Info, Part of Speech, Word Family, and Synonym.
It looks like this course uses more attribute types than the extension is set to handle by default. To change it a small adjustment to a source code is needed, and it would be faster for you to just make the edit on your end. Can you open the menu.js file from the extension root folder with any text editor and change the value of the “max_extre_fields” from 5 to 10?
Then save the file, reload the extension on the extension manager page:
reload the page with the Memrise course and at the bottom of the extension menu click “Restore default” to load the modified values into the memory:
Switch any toggles in the menu that got reset and try downloading the course again.
@Eltaurus, thank you for your project and your response.

Did it work for you?
Hi - I just downloaded and installed your extension today, but when go to my memrise course pages and click on the extension the “download current course” menu item is grayed out and disabled. I scanned this thread and didn’t see any posts about this problem. Any idea what I might have done wrong? Thanks!
Can you send a link to the course you are trying to download?
I keep getting an error here that I can’t send a link. Hmmmm
It’s the Korean course.
Thanks for looking into this!
