Is there a script for this?

@Thomas.Heiss @cooljingle

Hi,

are you talking about learning or reviewing?
And what course?

There have been special “all typing” settings for Memrise 1-7 courses (e.g words > 15 characters) but magically with the last ~2-3 updates the additional setting options have disappeared but the user script - luckily - still works for my PT BR 1-7 courses.

Well, after your opened thread am more than afraid now that there is another code update when I review my PT courses when I get back to it…HAHAHA!

AFAIK Cooljingle has not “(too) deeply hooked” into the individual learning steps to modify them, that you can customize how often you want to force typing over audio over multiple choice over tapping.
That may be a nice thing for a user to tell the system, how he wants to customize everything in more detail and language and course-wise.

But…on the left side (of the learning or reviewing panel) there is a menu point “all typing” settings.

If you want to shut OFF all other options (e.g tapping, multiple-choice), you can click on “Include Learning”.
But this is the case then for ALL learning steps!!! (too much for me)

Usually I just use typing when I review items, and stick to the Memrise defaults in learning mode on the web portal.


Q: Do you see half-planted learning items (three steps) or full-planted items (six steps)?

There was another web portal update a few weeks ago for the offical Memrise 1-7 courses which aligns the web portal the same functionality as the mobile app.


Maybe the best would be to customize the steps and how you want to learn by yourself, what do you think @cooljingle?

The same happens how the direction is tested in learning mode.
Recognition is easier…recalling is more difficult.
But it is VERY nice to learn from both sides in parallel.

But at least 1-2 RECALL tests on the 4th-6th step are pretty good to hammer the word into my head (nevertheless this sometimes fails no matter how intelligent the system is).

For more complicated sentences tapping is IMHO nice, if you have no clue about the language (total beginner) or the translation and if you tried it already three times with typing.

If you repeat e.g the 4th or 6h learning step, often typing is requested by the Memrise default (well, I am not exactly counting the steps!).

This is fine, as long as I am not too stupid to remember/recall the phrase/sentence and Memrise or Lingvist has to repeat the same thing over and over again (which I can not answer sucessfully no matter how often the system punishes me) with typing :wink:

@cooljingle The very best system might IMHO be an additional button which you can press, if you want to dynamically switch e.g from tapping to typing or typing to tapping (like DuoLingo crown update “keyboard” button on their web portal or the Memrise IOS app I had firstly heard about - Memrise Android app does not support that on my KOPlayer emulator!).

Maybe a feature like “add this repeat review item (after 3+ retries) the next time as type XXX” to the queue and to overwrite any Memrise defaults (I do not ALWAYS want to be forced into typing 2-3 or more times).


As I hardly understood what your real problem is from your intro comment and where your issue pops up, please feel free to give us a little bit more details how you run into it or what you are missing.

Are you missing a 7th learning full typing step before the learning session ends?
I think Cooljingle could accomplish this easily by copying the item and inserting with a custom spacing (e.g 3-6 questions apart or to the end).

Best regards / Viele Grüße

Just to clarify, Thomas is referring to the All Typing userscript here: https://github.com/cooljingle/memrise-all-typing

@Thomas.Heiss adding new screens is no longer easy after the updates, I used to have scripts that did it but they no longer work.

Hi, thank you for reply :smile:

I cannot find the option “all typing settings” but only two options on the left side, the keyboard short cut and mute audio…

Yes , I’m learning on the web portal.

Then you have not installed the “all typing” user script (the raw .JS file) from Cooljingle in your Tampermonkey browser addon!

yeah , it’s fixed, thank you :heart_eyes:
