Hello!
I am wondering if there is a way to use the reschedule all cards for fsrs but for after a certain date to prevent the huge backlog?
There isn’t. Those cards are rescheduled into the past based on when the algorithm computes they need to have been studied.
There are ways to deal with a backlog – as we’ve discussed in your prior thread – so you don’t need to reschedule those cards just because they are overdue.
Do you mean that you want to reschedule those cards that are currently due after that date?
To do that, search prop:due>30 (cards due more than a month from today) in the Browser, select all cards with Ctrl + A, right-click and choose FSRS: Update memory state and reschedule.
If you want to reduce the backlog after rescheduling, you can also go to Tools → Add-ons → FSRS Helper → Config and change the value of reschedule_threshold from 0 to something like 0.5 before rescheduling cards. The higher the value, lesser the number of cards that get rescheduled (the cards are chosen for rescheduling based on how far from the optimal schedule they are currently due). Acceptable range is from 0 to 1.
I want to see like date would be optimal to reschedule the cards based on new fsrs parameters and then schedule the change for after that date so I can decrease the backlog size
The back log from doing the fsrs optimization is 1600 cards and I currently have it in a filtered deck but I am looking for ways to not have a huge backlog like this every time I reschedule, because that does not sound sustainable to me
To add to that, FSRS Helper also has “Reschedule cards reviewed in the last X days”, where X is configurable in add-on config
You shouldn’t have that size of backlog every time you reschedule. That will only happen when something exceptional changes – increased DR, major change in parameters, different version of FSRS, etc.
