Proper Template after Image Import?

I’m trying to import images into a deck but don’t know the correct template syntax to view the images. Can someone help? Thanks

The image field in the csv I used for import looks like this:

Here is what I see for both my template and in browse. Notice the broken image icon in the ‘Figura’ field:

you don’t need the absolute url: <img src='p(1).jpg'>

Thank you for response, but I’m just a beginner and when I did what (I think) you suggested, it didn’t work. That is, I reimported without the

<img src=’

and

'>

Is that what you meant? If I could see a working example it would be great, but I can’t find any.

Can you specify what I do need? How would it look? Also, is my template correct? Thanks again.

No. Make sure to check the box labeled “Allow HTML in fields” when importing.

I did check that box. I re-imported just to make sure. See the screenshots below.
Also, notice that Anki DOES know where the image is since when I right-click and chose ‘Open image’ it finds the correct image. That’s why I thought my problem was the template syntax. See my template syntax in my earlier post. Is {{Figura}} correct for the template syntax for an image like this?

Screen shots for import:

Screenshot for browser after import. Note that it finds the correct image when right-clicking on the broken image icon:

Select the Figuara field and press Ctrl+Shift+X and share the HTML code shown in that window.

You should not use the full path, you should just use the filename, and ensure the file is in the media folder.

I’m on a Mac so I used cmd instead of ctrl. Here is the path I get when I drag that file into Terminal:

/Users/tony/Library/Application\ Support/Anki2/Tony/collection.media/p.jpg

As you can see you have the absolute url there. Delete these cards and import again with the url I described in the first post. If you want I can record a video about this process

SOLVED. Thanks for all the help.

The following diagram shows the steps I went through, starting from Excel, then using LibreOffice to produce the UTF-8 .csv, then the import into Anki, along with the card Template front and back.


Hopefully this will help someone else avoid the problems I had. As I’ve posted elsewhere in the forum, I think Anki is great. But I think what limits its use is the lack of examples showing steps to get it working. But after trying to make such an example, I admit, it’s a lot of work to do so. On the other hand, I’m no expert.
