Hello, I just installed the plugin and the basic example doesn't work.

START
Basic
This is a test.
Back: Test successful!
Tags: Testing
END

I got the error Did not recognise note type Basic in file.
On the other hand, it successfully creates decks and with the regexes it works.

I had the same problem, the reason was that there was no Note Type with the name Basic in Anki.

Fix

  • Change Anki to English
  • Go to Tools -> Manage Note Types
  • Add, select the first element Add: Basic
  • If you prefer a different UI language in Anki you can now switch back, the Note Type will remain.

Steps in Obsidian

  • To make it work properly for me, I cleaned up a bit in Obsidian
  • Go to the Obsidian_to_Anki settings
  • Scroll Down to the Actions
    • Clear File Hash Cache
    • Clear Media Cache
    • Regenerate Note Type Table
