Image Occlusion sudden bug

Anki Help
1

I’m a med student (MS1) and for some reason today thousands of my Image Occlusion stopped working (24 hrs before a week of finals, fml). The error reads:

“No cloze ⁨1⁩ found on card. Please either add a cloze deletion, or use the Empty Cards tool.”

I’ve reviewed previous posts, lots of suggestions to rename card type (no luck) and note type (no luck). I deleted and redownloaded Anki (no luck). I tried changing card types (eg: “Image Occlusion Enhanced” to “Image Occlusion Enhanced+” or others/similar from shared decks) but no luck. I can still see the question masks I created in Browse but can’t get the questions to work…

Update: got in touch w Image Occlusion creator, no obvious solution so I just reset to a backup from several days ago. Lost some work but everything else back to normal. Possible this was all due to change in note type (IO and IOE) while I was trying to fix an issue with the “toggle mask” function.

If you’re using Anki’s built-in I/O, the notetype should be “Image Occlusion”, not “Image Occlusion Enhanced”.

Have you tried restoring to an automatic backup made before the problem started?

Good call, that worked (same thing Glutanimate recommended). Thanks very much!
