Templates Import / Export - AnkiWeb needs an Anki 23 fix.

Actually the fix (a couple of lines) can be found in a pull request at the “Contact Author” GitHub site. The author has not responded.

(A broader pre-existing issue with this add-on is that it maps Note names and Card names to a directory tree, but sometimes these will not be legal file names in a given operating system. Especially, the character : is not legal in Windows filenames. But that’s beyond the scope of a simple fix for Anki23.)

I uploaded it to AnkiWeb.

@noty What is broken?

Runs fine in mine (23.12.1) and there isn’t a negative comment in the page or forum nor an issue in their Github

As NameLessGO says, this add-on does not seem to be broken, and the original author is also active.

If you are having any problems, it may be that some other Add-ons are interfering.
Try turning off all Add-ons except “Sidebar table” and see if the problem recurs.

Hmmm, I looked into this add-on, but it seems to work fine on my device and the latest Anki.

Is updating “Bury related notes” from V2 to V3 scheduler difficult?

The Qt5/6 issue is fixed by simply replacing the PyQt5 imports with PyQt6 imports, just like with “Copy notes”.

Updating from V2 to V3 is difficult, I still don’t understand how the scheduler works.

The list of what can and cannot be repaired is on this page (It may change later). There is also info about repaired and failed add-ons.

2. [ :o:What I will try to repair ]

  • Simple fix Add-ons for the latest Anki ( e.g. Anki2.1.55->Anki23+ )
  • Repair game Add-ons

3. [ :x:What I will not try to repair ]

  • Too difficult
    • Too old Add-ons (e.g. Anki2.0->Anki23)
    • V2 scheduler to V3 scheduler support
    • Issues that original developer can’t solve
    • Support for older Anki
  • Interfere with the author’s
    • Paid add-ons (e.g. Migaku, Anking, Patreon)
    • Add-on author is active, or under repair by author
  • Enhancements (Too much workload)
    • Adding new features
    • Develop new add-ons

And add-ons by popular authors can easily fail to be repaired because they are advanced. For example, I have tried several times to repair add-ons for Henrik Giesel and Arthur Milchior but failed. It may be possible in the future, but it may be easier to develop new add-ons than to repair them.

The link to the related add-on at https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/800604861 is to the same page.
