Autogenerated cards put the card translation into the explanation field

[deleuzei]

As you can see in the screenshot, on Google Translate the box under the translated word features words in both languages.

Autogenerating fetchs the entire box, resulting in both translations appearing in the explanatory field.

YourLanguageExplanation field should be purged of all references to the foreign language, else it is liable that the word you are supposed to translate will appear there.

@deleuzei hi again!
It seems you created an autogenerated TSV and then generated cards with a type set to vocabulary, that's why you see the entire box without the 'spoilers' hidden.
Instead, you should set type for autogenerated TSV to autogenerate, and set file to your autogenerated TSV-file.
The card will be generated with 'spoilers' hidden until you flip the card, like in this example.. Autogenerated TSV has html tags inserted for identification of different fields, and to hide the parts like synonyms it has to be generated with a specific CSS template.

The config should look something like this (there is no option for header since autogenerated TSVs are assumed to have a header.

    {
        "type": "autogenerate",
        "file": "en_fr_autogenerated.tsv",
        "card_color": "#33AA33",
        "show_tags": true,
        "card_properties": {
            "tags": [
                "french",
                "vocabulary",
                "autogenerated"
            ]
        },
        "pronunciation_in_reverse": false,
        "lang": {
            "original": "en",
            "translation": "fr"
        },
        "one_translation": false,
        "audio": true
    }

You're completely right, I've missed the part that you're still supposed to use the autogenerate type, even though you're importing from a .tsv.
@Otter-man There's one problem with using that method though. If using autogenerate type, the JSON audio field doesn't recognize a media_dir subfield. Consequently the audio is downloaded to ./.media. Is there a way around this, beside building in one place and moving the artifacts elsewhere? Have I missed something else in the readme?

[Otter-man]

@deleuzei nope, configs for autogenerate don't support saving media to a non-default folder yet, so the only way currently is to move/delete the default .media folder manually.
