I just updated Anki to 2.1.44 on my Linux machine (running Pop!_OS 20.10) from the .deb package on the Anki website. Now, I’m having weird issues with some cards. They all used to work great. I restarted Anki, did as many checks as I could, and I don’t think it’s my error, but easily could be.
Anyway, I have JS on a lot of cards to help study vocab and stuff. But it suddenly stopped working when I updated, except if I somehow “force” the card to reload. What I mean is, I’ll see a card without the JS running, then if I hit Edit then immediately close the Edit window, it will start working.
I will include 3 images. The first is what I see when the card opens, and the second is when I hit Edit then Esc (changing nothing). The third is the back side of the card, which should have the JS as well. And like I said, all this was working totally fine before the update.
Let me know what I should look into to help fix this.
To clarify, earlier desktop releases also dynamically updated the page; this likely broke because the way the page is updated changed. Unfortunately this is the risk of Javascript: Styling & HTML - Anki Manual
