Setup

For the plugin to work you need to adapt the note type you want to use for English clozes.

First, include this CSS by:

  • Go to the card browser and select one card of the note type you want to use

  • Click on Cards... > Styling

  • Add this:

    .front-only {
      display: show;
    }
    .answer .front-only {
      display: none;
    }
    

Then, you need to have the back template marked with class answer. To do so, click in Back template and surround the content with:

   <div class="answer">
     ... your template...
   </div>
