But you can do it easily in Excel. Then the program is able to run and give you a file with everything in order that you convert to Excel in oder to use it.
This and all the solutions posted in this thread only take into account the main meanings of a word (the ones that show in big during learning and on the side during testing), but so far there is no way to import the alternate meanings as well.
Importing everything without alternate meanings is just pointless. It took a lot of work to add those for every word, so if I’m gonna backup my course, I wanna do it completely, with alternate meanings included.
I’m not an expert, since I only experimented with it once or twice, but Memrise-to-Anki will let you download any column in the database, including alternatives.
As for whether or not you could export it again from Anki, I have no idea!
First of all: thank you very much for your effort. I tried the online tool a few times, but unfortunately it doesn’t seem to work for my rather large course (this one: https://www.memrise.com/course/39780/top-6000-japanisch/). Do you think anything can be done about this?
Thanks! Yeah that is a huge course, there’s no issue with the script itself, it can get the whole list but it just takes time on the poor little Rasbperry Pi…
Wow! Thank you so much for your effort! I tried it quite a few times and waited patiently but in the end I always just got a blank tab.
Thank you very much once again, that is a big help!

I think the greatest thing you have done is, that it indeed doesn’t need any technical knowledge, that scripts usually require. Thank you!
It only copies the primary columns I understand. Any chance of improving it, exporting all columns, or alternatives, or/and the audio files (or at least the audio file names; if there were another script for exporting the files, a list with the names is helpful in matching and renaming). E.g. if we use an URL like this: https://www.memrise.com/course//edit/# would.
Thank you! I’m not the author of the script, but I suspect that it would not be possible to download sound files, as it would require you to log in. At the moment, the script does not require you to log in, but I have submitted a feature request to the author, which you can track here: https://github.com/nad2000/memrise-scraper/issues/2
Concerning exporting all columns, could you send me an example of a course that does have more than two columns? I might not be able to work on it right now as I have exams coming up, but I will do what I can.
Actually, most courses have more than 2 columns, but only the creator and contributors can see them when going to the edit mode. Those extra columns I meant. I do not have any course with three columns.
BTW: if the script runs on the web-server, then yes, logging in is a different deal. However, if the script runs in the browser, the browser has already the login cookie if the user is logged on, and the problem should be solved by itself. But who knows, their is somewhere a catch - I am not a script writer.
Not my idea, but something I got from someone else on an other thread that I can’t find now (I had copied the code into a Google doc). This has worked very well for me to export my words in a way that I can copy it straight into Quizlet:
Open Developer Console
To open the developer console window on Chrome, use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl Shift J (on Windows) or Command Option J (on Mac). Alternatively, you can use theChrome menu in the browser window, select the option “More Tools,” and then select “Developer Tools.”
Paste below script and hit enter
After all urls have been fetched, copy final word list into spreadsheet.
Hey, if you’re still looking for a solution, perhaps my exporter will work for you. It should export all of the columns, but you’ll need to download it and right now it’s for Windows only.
I believe it looks fine there. In order to open it in Excel, try the steps in the link above (and don’t forget to change the separator from , to ; on one of the screens during the process.
