Hi all,

After adding quite a few Basic cards to my anki deck for my upcoming exam, I realized that once I started going through them it shows the back twice. However, when I go to edit the card it shows the front and the back of it. How do I fix this? I’ve read a few other threads regarding this saying that my template is probably wrong however I do not know how to fix that. Attached below are screen shots of what it looks like on my end.

Your front template says `{{Back}}` (showing the back field) instead of `{{front}}` (which is the name of your front field). Change that and the problem should be resolved.
