Oh, and something else... and I dunno if this is just me, but when I am restudying a bunch of failed kanji in the Study page, and I add a story to one (I've made it a habit to add the story only when it failed for this new account I made for the test site), upon showing the next failed kanji after that, the same story has been added to this new kanji! If I'm right and that's a bug, that seems a rather major one.

(Here used to be a link to a picture showing what it looks like)

I like the option at the review status-page; "View: simple or full". And thats the first thing I noticed, would be nice if you could choose your personal default setting, so that the button can already be marked on "full" for example, as soon as you enter the review status (and maybe the same for "Filter: ALL, RTK1, RTK3").
Keep it up!

Seconded Or if that's not possible, I'd rather have it on full by default than on simple.

Not sure if this has already been mentioned somewhere, but are there any plans to add a handwritten form of the kanji along with the print form?

When reviewing I always write the kanji on paper and this would help my penmanship.

Hi MrPhil - This is pretty easy to set up using Greasemonkey - a Firefox add-on.  Changing fonts isn't built into the site natively (although such a feature would be wonderful).

The greasemonkey script is here.

You pick your font from here (accessible from your profile page).

I like YOzFontEF90 as a handwritten font. Check out this thread for more.

I believe フアブリス is planning on porting the font picker over to the new site, too (although the greasemonkey script may break until someone has a chance to update it for the new site).

Yeah sorry got a little burned out (almost litterally, damned heat X_X), changing my schedules. I have two points that must be fixed before moving to production: the progress page, and the study page bug reported by Whatsifsowhatsit (it doesn't copy the story, but show story of frame number x, with the rest of framenumber x+1, due to the url).

Then I continue with the list I posted previsouly, about half of that list is done (rows per page options, remembering table sort in session etc).

Is this normal behavior in the review section:
- yesterday I cleared all kanji (was about to restart rtk and test the new site)
- I added the first 100 kanji
- did a review -> got split up into two piles of 50 (50 for 1 review  & 50 for 2reviews) (I guess clicking 'easy' puts it in the '2 reviews' immediately)

ok:
- so today I added another 50
- They got split over those 2 first boxes
- but some that I reviewed today immediately got into the three reviews box (3passes , box 4)

That's what I encountered. For the rest, I love it the new style and so on.

Minor note: I think I logged in the with my existing account into the test website. Because I'll lose all my progress on the test site - as you told us - I'll also start over on the normal website.

I'm sorry. I'm in a motivation dip at the moment. I realize how silly it is to have a working test site there with some valuable improvements and to stop a couple days of work ahead of updating the live site.... on the other hand I don't want to force myself to work on the site if I don't feel like it. Also have a challenging project at work with impossible deadlines which saps my energy... at least I'm learning Yahoo's YUI which is cool. So... short of having a motivation pill, I just hope it will pass quickly and can't promise anything.

Thank you for the help

Thank you for the database change to speed things up a bit.

With a bow:

Thank's for the current update!
Your time and effort is highly appreciated

@Rael89: Yup, happens to me too. A higher resolution would probably help but

After every answer it scrolls back to the top, so unless I want to keep scrolling after every card, I have to make the browser fullscreen in order to go through the reviews.

On the upside, the fullscreen reviews (see first post) are rather nice and they fix this problem.

@Rael89  Will look at it tomorrow. You can use the (currently hidden) fullscreen option: start a review session, then add "/fullscreen" in the url so it looks like this :

   http://kanji.koohii.com/review/fullscreen?type=...

Or use the keyboard shortcuts: Y, N, E(asy), F or SPACE to flip card.

@lerris   Currently the flashcard "caching" is maximum 10 cards. This makes a drastic difference in terms of requests to the server, at the same time you can never loose more than 10 reviews if your laptop battery runs out or something

It's important to note that Opera users won't see the alert box if they try to leave the page without clicking "End" (but the max "caching" still applies).

You should always click "End" review now. In practice I think that's what most users do.
If you're in a really long review and want to end it early, you must click "end" to avoid loosing the last flashcard answers, even if you're not interested in the review summary.
