Description

Edit 2025-11-05: Added function to select Anki Connect version. If the default version 23.10.29 does not work fine please try another version.

This Add-on is for downgrading Anki Connect.
You can try this if your Anki Connect is broken after updating Anki Connect.
Once the original Anki Connect supports the old Anki, this Add-on is not needed.

Original : Anki Connect / Author : Alex Yatskov

Why Downgrader?

The author of Anki Connect is active, so I expect this issue will be resolved soon.
This Add-on will overwrite the original Anki Connect, so you will receive notifications when the original is updated.

How to use

Install the patch for the Old Anki Connect (default: 23.10.29.0)

Overwrite the original Anki Connect.(downgrade)
Original Anki Connect settings will be taken over(meta.json).
When the original Anki Connect is updated, this patch will be overwritten and removed. (You can update it at any time and return to the original and latest Anki Connect.)
You can downgrade again from the menu after updating.

After installation, please reboot Anki.

Note: This add-on may cause errors when installed on Anki25.06+. But the purpose of this add-on is to use AnkiConnect on old Anki, so it is not repaired. If you want me to add support for some reason please send me a request.
