I don’t why this isn’t a thing (or if it already is and I am just ignorant of it).
Sometimes I do want to share a deck with my friends for them to learn something, and with me using cloze notes as entire book chapters, the person must learn the cards in the order that is put c1, c2, c3 etc to avoid confusion.
However resetting cards as shown here could only do so much and just sends me the cards completely jumbled up by my own reviewing pattern.
I look at the browser and I do see that there is a column for sorting cloze numbers in ascending or descending order.
So I wonder why is not sorting New Cards (which are actually reset old card) by order of their Cloze Number not a thing, or am I missing something here
Try doing a Reposition on them after you Reset/Forget. That will put all sibling-clozes on the same New-queue number, and then the user will control in what order the cloze #s/card types for each note are introduced.
Anything you want. That is about where these cards start in the New-queue. The exact number only matters relative to other New cards you want to introduce (but there’s no reason not to start with something small).
Reposition will put the cards in the order you have them arranged in the Browse window right now, except that it will put all siblings on the same number.
I addressed this topic a couple of months ago. I wonder if there could be a straightforward feature that exports cloze cards in ascending order of their c-numbers, which they show up with inside their notes.
I was not aware of that. I am just trying to export the in a way that is usable by my friends so that they can get going with studying in the order they were made in. Apkg seemed to be the default format.
Yes, apkg is the most reasonable format for that. You can learn the basics of exporting in the manual. [Which, at your experience level, should really be the first place you look when you are trying to figure something out.]
Yeah, but the problem is sorting my cards in the order they were originally in the moment they were created.
There is no direct way, and it is especially bad for cloze cards inside notes, which surprises me since it is easy to sort cards according to ascending numbers of Cloze Cards in the browser, but not when you are exporting decks that have already been learned.
Surely you’re not trying to export them with scheduling information included? What is the problem that you’re seeing when that export file is imported? In what way are the cards within a cloze note not “in the order they were originally”?
I am not doing it with schedule information included. Yet somehow they are still all jumbled up completely as if they were taking in the order they are in my “reviewing” queue, (at least that’s what I think is happening), which is very weird.
So for example I am trying to export a deck of cloze cards from c1 to c100 to one of my friends and siblings to learn. I learned this deck by heart and all cards are review cards.
I want to export these cards as new cards and obviously in a chronological order from c1 to c100 (c1 shows up before c2, c2 before c3, c50 before c49 and so on.
I do so, but then the exported cards are completely jumbled (c30 before c5, c29 before c14 etc.). I suspect that scheduling information is still somehow preserved and that this is the underlying issue.
Is this when the user is looking at them in the Browse window? – that’s controlled by the sort columns.
Or when the cards are being introduced as New? – that’s controlled by the New card gather/sort order.
I don’t know what you want me to see in that screenshot. I don’t notice anything useful.
Then there’s no reason they won’t be displayed in order. You started out asking about issues your friends were having with your shared deck, but now it sounds like you’re trying to use this deck in your own collection. Are any of your fiends actually having issues with the deck?
I know you have an unusual number of Options presets. Are you looking at the display order settings for the correct one?
All my presets, though many, have the same display order settings. They are all clones.
I still don’t understand. If this is an actual workaround, I haven’t managed to get it to work for me or for my friends and family. I have tried opening the exported deck on a different profile, still to no avail.
It’s not a “workaround” – this is just how Anki works.
A note creates multiple cards, but by default puts them all on the same New-queue number. You’re saying that the cards a each note were all created at the same time – so there’s nothing in the way of them being displayed in the ordinary fashion. That means “order gathered” should show you the cards, note-by-note, in the same card type order they were created [assuming you have sibling burying off].
If that’s not working, you’re really going to have to give us something else to go on that could explain why. You’ve shown me your Browse table, but the order your cards appear there (based on your column sort) isn’t the order they will be introduced.

Indeed this is what is happening.

I really dont know what else to give. Perhaps it is a bug maybe
The point of this topic was that this is a non-existent thing in Anki (as far as I know) and that there should just be a simple way to keep already reviewed cloze cards exported as reset or “forgotten” new cards in order.
