README

Clickable Tags v3.0

Modernized fork of Clickable Tags for current Anki (25.x).

Status

  • Maintained in source control as a custom add-on.
  • Publish-ready packaging via local scripts and CI.

Compatibility

  • Tested target: Anki 25.09.x
  • Expected compatibility: modern 25.x desktop builds

Features

  • Render tags as clickable pills in reviewer/previewer via {{clickable:Tags}}
  • Single-click: search by tag
  • Double-click: search by tag scoped to current deck (default)
  • Configurable scope behavior and display options

Installation

Option 1: install from release package (.ankiaddon)

  1. Download the latest .ankiaddon from this repository's GitHub Releases.
  2. In Anki, go to Tools -> Add-ons -> Install from file....
  3. Select the .ankiaddon file and restart Anki.

Option 2: development install (link a local checkout)

  1. Clone this repo to any local path.
  2. Link the repo folder into your Anki addons21 directory as review_clickable_tags.
  3. Restart Anki.

Typical addons21 paths:

  • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Anki2/addons21/
  • Linux: ~/.local/share/Anki2/addons21/
  • Windows: %APPDATA%\\Anki2\\addons21\\

Create the link on macOS/Linux:

ln -sfn /path/to/review_clickable_tags \
  /path/to/Anki2/addons21/review_clickable_tags

Create the link in PowerShell (Windows):

New-Item -ItemType SymbolicLink `
  -Path "$env:APPDATA\\Anki2\\addons21\\review_clickable_tags" `
  -Target "C:\\path\\to\\review_clickable_tags"

Manual package install (.ankiaddon)

  1. Build package:
./scripts/package.sh
  1. Double-click the generated file in dist/ to install.

Template usage

Add this to the card template where tags should appear:

{{clickable:Tags}}

Behavior defaults:

  • Single-click tag: search all decks by tag
  • Double-click tag: search tag inside current deck

Data-safety model

  • This add-on does not auto-edit note types, notes, or collection data.
  • It only renders/intercepts {{clickable:Tags}} at runtime in reviewer/previewer.

Optional bulk setup (outside this add-on)

If you want to roll this out across all note types:

  1. Back up note type templates first.
  2. Use AnkiConnect to update templates to include {{clickable:Tags}} on front/back.
  3. Sync AnkiWeb.
  4. Repeat sync on other devices.

Keep this as a one-time external migration step, not add-on startup logic.

Configuration

This add-on ships:

  • config.json defaults
  • config.md docs for Anki's config editor
