Description

Quick Tag Picker (Add + Import)

Stop typing tags. Tick them.
A clickable tag tree inside Anki's Add window and Import window. Tick the tags, press Add or Import, and they are applied automatically. Built for med students and anyone with a deep tag hierarchy (year → unit → lesson).

Why it matters

No typos, no duplicate tags: every tag comes from your tree, so Cardio never becomes Cardiology by accident.
Faster card creation: no more typing long paths like EXTERNAT::3rd_year::Cardiology::01_Introduction.
Bulk tagging on import: one tick tags every note of a .txt / .csv import.
Same structure every time: your whole deck stays consistent and searchable.

Quick start (1 minute)

Install the add-on and restart Anki.
Open Add (or File → Import). The tag panel appears on the right.
Click Load tree from my tags… to build the tree from tags you already have (or build it by hand, see below).
Click the tags you want (a click ticks/unticks).
Add your card as usual. The ticked tags are applied.

Features

Tick-to-tag in the Add window. Selection can stay after each card (Keep selection after adding), ideal for adding many cards from the same lesson.
Import window: ticked tags are applied to all imported notes. Forgot to tick? Use Tag last import with ticked tags afterwards.
Search: type in the search box (shortcut Ctrl+Alt+T) to filter the tree instantly.
New node named after the imported file: one button creates a lesson/chapter tag from the file name.
Build the tree your way: type a name + Enter, then choose where it goes: child, sibling before, sibling after, or new parent of the selected node.
Paste many nodes: paste an indented list (with a preview) or use Paste from clipboard. Indentation = nesting; A::B = full path.
Right-click a node: add child, insert before/after, rename, delete.
Undo / Redo (up to 100 steps, Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y in the tree) for every tree edit.
Expand / Collapse / Clear buttons and a live counter of selected tags.

Pasting a list of lessons

01_Introduction
02_Clinical_exam
    02a_Inspection
    02b_Palpation

Select a parent node → Paste many nodes… → Add. Spaces become _, levels are joined with ::.

Settings

Tools → Add-ons → Quick Tag Picker → Config (restart Anki after editing):

show_in_add_window / show_in_import_window: where the panel appears.
keep_selection_after_add: keep ticked tags after each card.
panel_width (pixels) and panel_side ("left" or "right").
share_tree_with: use another add-on's tag tree (default: Course Map Import). Set to "" for a separate tree.
tags: your tree (leave empty and use Load tree from my tags…).

Requires: Anki 2.1.55 or newer.
Tested on: the latest Anki release at the time of publishing (October 2026). Older versions are not tested.
Tip: back up your collection before large imports.
