Install the Anki addon from AnkiWeb.

Description

A small Anki add-on that removes HTML non-breaking spaces ( ) and replaces them with normal spaces.

Demonstration showing removing nbsp from Anki card

Features

  • Cleans newly added notes automatically by hooking into Add Cards and replacing   with a regular space in every field after a note is added.
  • Adds a collection-wide purge command at Tools -> nbsp Remover -> Purge collection from   that runs Anki's background find/replace across all notes.
  • Supports optional startup purge to run the collection-wide cleanup automatically when Anki starts.
  • Supports a configurable keyboard shortcut for manual purge (default: Ctrl+Alt+P).
  • Supports optional tooltips that show confirmation/status after cleanup actions.

Menu Entries

After Anki starts, this add-on creates:

  • Tools -> nbsp Remover -> Purge collection from  
  • Tools -> nbsp Remover -> Options

It also registers the add-on config action so Options can be opened from Anki's add-on config entry point.

Notes

  • Replacement target is the exact text   (not regex).
  • Replacement value is a normal space ( ).
  • Purge runs in the background using Anki operations.
