saved me from a lot of headache. Not many contents in the internet which explains this feature in a straightforward way. It's such a relief to finally solve a problem after going at it for hours. I can't thank you enough.
Thank you for introducing this plugin to me, Sergio! I watched this video months ago and was able to instantly incorporate the spaced repetition plugin into my workflow while studying for certifications. It helps me to fill in gaps and also serves as a way to continuously test my knowledge so I retain more information from the certification. Thanks again!
Thanks. I'm still using Anki but I'm going to change over because I'm always in Obsidian and it makes it so easy to do a few cards regularly rather than having to remember to do them. Keeping the Q&A in with the notes is also a win.
I like the folders and subfolders option instead of tags I don't ever really use tags, this way i just put a flashcards header at the bottom of my note and write some questions, and it will automatically be recognized as a deck
"Show file name instead of 'Edit Later" in flashcard review?" is missing as of current version of this plug in. Well what a great start to this plug in
I've learned about the space repetition technique not long ago and was wondering how to implement it in my PKM.. Mission Completed 😆 Keep up the great work, A+ Presentation, A+ Content, A+ Conciseness. 💪
could you teach us how to "use the flash card section and automate the whole process using templates"? (in Tutorial 8:00) I try use `# Flashcards` section in my vault but it doesn't work. And in my "space repetition" plugin, it can't jump to the context of the note. Anyway, thanks for the tutorial! Learn a lot~
You are the best! A cool idea regarding this could be to implement tracking in order to see what kind of cards and structure of the content that actually achieve long-term learning :). However, I am already way to deep with things I gotta melt and take in regarding obsidian, but i'll implement this plugin later for sure! :D
I can't figure out how to change the time after which the hard ones are shown to me again. Reviewing them the next day is already too far away for me, I want to review hard flashcards on the same day, maybe after a few hours. Is it possible?
I want the intervals like HARD (10 mins) GOOD (1 day) EASY (2 days). I don't understand the concept of base ease and everything under the algorithm section. Can you help me set up the interval as I want?
Hi Sergio, do you know if there is a way to mark a full note as a flashcard ? I basically just want the title of my note as the front, and all its content (regardless of blank lines in between) as the back. Blank lines seems to be hardly handled from obsidian-to-anki plugins. Thanks if you can advise me on this 🙏
Sergio, this is my first time here - I have been trying Anki for a quite a while but got frustrated with it. I am gonna check out Spaced Repetition plugin. I agree with your insight on writing prompts with the situation first and then the command needed as the answer - I figured it out after using the wrong format for a while. I would like to see how you actually create a notes when you learning something new like Python or Linux - You gave a brief description, but it is not enough to help me compare your system with mine. If there are other videos where you have talked about this, i would be grateful if you can let me know. Have a nice day and thanks for a video packed with a lot of nuggets of wisdom and experience - when I saw you use double semicolon, I realized how much of an efficiency seeker you are - I am gonna switch to it, too - why press Shift key so much :)
This is very useful, thanks! Questions, is there a way to import my Anki Decks? I have so much content on there it would be a pain to have to move the cards over manually
I chose this over the anki-obsidian integration, personally. I only make videos on what I do use! But thanks for the feedback and suggestion please keep them coming!
thanks for another fantastic video, sergio! this convinced me to switch over from the Obsidian-to-Anki plugin i was using. i was wondering, though: is there a specific reason you prefer the double semi-colon ;; over the double-colon ::? is it an efficiency thing or does it clash with something else going on in your vault (Dataview, etc)?
Great video. You convinced me to try the spaced rep plugin. Now, having used it a bit, I have a question I'm hoping you can answer for me...I see how to create a card that supports multiple lines of text on each side, but how do you easily add blank lines? I discovered I can insert elements, but that seems very awkward. Is there an easier way? Thanks.
to add a blank line (or create a line break within a flashcard), you can use two spaces at the end of a line followed by a line break. Example: _____________________ Front side of the card
Back side of the card _____________________ above, there is a blank line between the front and back sides of the card, creating a visual separation. if you need to insert a line break within a line of text, you can use a backslash followed by a line break. For example: _____________________ This is a sentence with a\ line break. _____________________ which will display as: _____________________ This is a sentence with a line break. _____________________
I use to be a fan to this plugin, but now I'm with obsidian to anki. The only one big problem I have encountered was the minimun lapse to repeat. I mean, if I'm studying, I can wait a whole day to repeat the sentence in which I failed. I don't know if is possible to change this in something like anki: "repeat in
I know exactly what you're saying (and your English is great!). That problem seems pretty big to me, and something you don't have to deal with the spaced repetition plugin. I used to have that exact issue when I was in college and when I looked for a way to change it back then and it wasn't possible.
@@FromSergio I don't understand what he's talking about. Would you mind to explain it to me a little bit better. I'm understanding that you can't change the space repetition minimum time to the Anki way or
Thanks for the very informative video Sergio. I am new to this plugin and found that after complete a flashcard, my note file has these sort of data inputted . Is there a way to remove this? And if I was to remove it would it delete my flashcard data? Appreciate any help or advice!
Could you please advise if there is a plugin for Obsidian that allows you to synchronize notes in Obsidian and cards in Anki ? I would like to be able to create notes in Obsidian, set folders and tags for them, and then see them as Anki cards. In this case, the title should be the original side of the card, and the content of the note should be the back side of the card.
I used this for a while, but it seems to be broken. The buttons would say a card would be due for review again in five months, and yet I'd see the card again just a few days later.
I'm using this plugin on obsidian mobile and based on my study field i have to review notes instead of flashcards. Is there any way to make the plugin put all of the notes in a folder to be reviewed regularly? Instead of manually adding the specific hastag in the begining of every note?
Does someone use the flashcard plugin also on the Iphone? When I got to flashcards on my obsidian vaul in obsidian the window ist just one third from the screen at a nice workflow is impossible. Does someone knew a answer? Thanks!
is there a flashcard plugin out there that doesn't have those stupid intervals? I would really like to review cards but the intervals is slowing me down. I would really want something that is up to me on how I review it. The intervals is just slowing me down to be honest.
If it could either support callouts natively or would allow for regex like the obsidian_to_anki plugin I would start using it imetiatly. But until then I‘ll have to keep using to_anki :(
the anki connect make the integration betweend obsidian and anki beautiful with the obsidian to anki plugin you seem like you are using your laptop a lot so it seems it's the same but what i like in anki and really amazed me is that i am a mobile heavy user, so i uses anki mobile alot and with obsidian to anki plugin there is a possibility to add the obsidian link and context and what really shocked me is that the link is dynamic so when you are in the desktop it opens the note in obsidian on the desktop but the strange thing for me that in the mobile it opens the same note in the obsidian app i already installed on my mobile and synced it with free app called drivesync
Thansk for sharing. I'm the opposite and I'm mostly on desktop and by mostly I mean nearly 100% of the time so this one works perfectly for me, but good to know :)
OK, so this way of learning even has a name. I always noticed that just reading the same thing several times and from different sources was my preferred method of learning. But I thought it was because I am lazy and I prefer repetition over effort. Now I can say I’m just a spaced learner
Without your clear videos, I would get a lot less use out of Obsidian. Now if I wonder "how do I do XYZ?" there's a way to do it, and I search for your videos for the explanation and walkthrough.
For people who are new to obsidian. Kindly note that there is a better app called logseq which is very simple to use and also has flashcards which is more simple to use than obsidian. Backlinking , outliner is superb in logseq. Its free and it also uses the same markdown files like obsidian. I started using obsidian 2 months before and found very complex to use like - dataviews dataviewjs etc etc. Logseq query language is so simple to use than obsidian. Kindly try once logseq if you like you can use it. I stopped using obsidian and using only logseq now, its so beautiful app. you can only realize once you use it.
Tried logseq before moving to Obsidain. Everything you said is utterly incorrect. Obsidian is WAY superior to logseq in all regards. They are not even in the same league.
@@skillzset1066 @Skillz Set 🤣What to say when a person didnt know the full use of logseq. I also was overhyped by Obsidian seing lots of youtube videos and was thinking so superior until i found logseq. I learned the true power of logseq after completing this paid course which is mastery of logseq- logseqmastery by - "Dario da Silva". Its expensive but worth doing this course. In obsidian the Dataviews , Dataviewjs is so complex to write . In logseq it can be done in a simple query. I wasted my lots of time in Obsidian overhype.. Block reference is so easy in logseq with just simple drag and drop. Further filters inside a block is super easy with buttons provided in search option, where as in obsidian it is complicated using carat ^ symbol. Block embedd is also so easy in logseq. Page properties and block properties is also very simple to write in logseq , so user friendly. There is no need to install so many plugins in logseq. Outliner is natively built in logseq compared to obsidian where there big headache in outline and we need to install a plugin for it. Anyways, Enjoy your time in Obsidian 🤣 I did learned Obsidian thoroughly from paid courses of - Santi younger, Keep productive & Skill share etc. So much time waste. Thanks to God i finally found logseq which is so underrated and people dont know its full power. When i say people ignore my comment. Up to you guys , i only said the advantages of it. Even though it is markdown files moving to a different app later will cause issues as the block reference and page reference wont be transfered to a new app later.

That was exactly what I did, it's also a joy to use :)
@@FromSergio This video gave me the kick I needed to crack on with it!
For the people that wants to use Anki instead of this plugin, there is Anki integration for Obsidian - "Flashcards" community plugin.
Yup that's what I did before switching over to this, personal preference mostly, both are solid choices!
