Problem with creating cards

Anki Card Design

Hello! How can I create a card that features a front side with a question and a back side with the answer, along with several additional fields? The answer should be displayed directly, while the other fields should be collapsible and revealed upon clicking.

Before you start making these kinds of changes, make sure you understand what notes, note types, and card types/templates are.

I’ll give you the basics, but if you want help editing your specific note type, you can respond here with more specifics – a screenshot of your fields, the text of your front and back templates [post them in a code/preformatted text block (see the formatting bar)].

  1. Make sure your devices are all in sync before you start.

  2. Making these changes will affect all of the notes that use this note type. If there are some that you want to stay how they are, there are a couple extra steps.

  3. Create the fields on your note type – Notes > Manage Note Types > Fields – click Add to create the fields that will hold the additional information. Give them meaningful names.

  4. Add the fields to your card template – Notes > Manage Note Types > Cards – add Field Replacements for these new fields to the back template. To have them be click-to-reveal, use Hint Fields.

These are the fields I want to include.
The first one (Vorderseite = front side)) should be the question and the 2. (RĂĽckseite = back side) answer.

4-9 should include text or images, but they shouldn’t show up if I don’t click it; it should look like this:

Great, it looks like you’ve already taken care of #3 – you have the fields. I can’t help you with an Amboss card template (which are notoriously complicated – you might want to go to their support if that’s what you’re modifying), or with adding JavaScript buttons like that template uses. But #4 above will work to give you a simpler version of that.

For instance, wherever you want field 4 to show up, you’ll put this in the back template of your card –
