Anki showing empty cards

Hi. Anki is showing me empty cards in the reviewer window – they come up as blank with a field to type in. It’s happening with the Picture Word type of note where the spelling field is blank. When I run empty cards, it reports no empty cards to delete. This is happening on both desktop and AnkiDroid. Not sure if the same is happening with other types of note as I mostly have Picture Words in this deck.

Background: I updated to the latest, 2.1.46 version today, but ultimately decided to switch back to an older one. This started with the new version – I reviewed yesterday on the old one (desktop) with no issues. Any help appreciated. I’ve been suspending, but there are a lot of them.

That template should be

{{type:Word}}
{{/Test Spelling? (y = yes, blank = no)}}

not

{{/Test Spelling? (y = yes, blank = no)}}
{{type:Word}}

After changing it, Empty Cards should work correctly.
