The problem here it’s that I get the same group of words to review, it doesn’t change at all, no matter how many times I answer them correctly. I’ve cleaned the cache and also used a different browser, nothing has changed.
Some updates.
A script caused review and learning sessions not to load. However,
- At the top of sessions, the course name doesn’t appear.
- Before, I could get the word correct, then click on check answer to confirm a definition. Now, if I do that after the word has been marked green/correct, it counts the word as though I missed it.
- Before, when a learning session ended, if you clicked “levels”, you’d be brought back to the level you were learning from. Now it takes you to the course home page. This isn’t helpful.
Allan_Christian5d can you provide more details? Which course? Where do you review from? Do you have any words to review on it (is the button blue and has a number or grey)?
Hi Sohols,
can you please give us more details? which course are you doing a speed review on?
I have had Speed Review problems on three of my courses, Modern Greek, Beginner to Intermediate Polish and Advanced Spanish. So it is not unique to one course. It is like last summer - I hope it does not take a week to fix like last time, although it might do me good to use Review more as it is slower but a more in-depth review.
Congratulations! The new update on the website broke Cooljingle’s user script “Memrise Wrong answer skips”.
If you do not know the word, the text box is empty and if you hit ENTER, it will show the next review word question from the queue, instead of the error/mem page of the current word.
This is the same if you give a wrong answer in the text box and you hit ENTER which shall show the (current) wrong answer, not the next question.
After the 2nd question (you may enter correcly or incorretly) the 1st error/mem page of the 1st question will be shown…
If I disable Cooljingle’s script (which thankfully supresses the crap of ~3-6 repetitions for incorrect answers): then it is back to working.
It looks like your website update uses a new queueing (order) mechanism?!? Hopefully Cooljingle can fix it soon.

SteveKaczynski Do you think those words you reviewed were due to review? It could be that just the ordering is wrong
A feature of last year’s breakdown was that the same words came up for review again and again. I am not sure this is the case this time.
Yeah, @daniel.zohar. Can you comment on my post above?
@Thomas.Heiss, I posted something for cooljingle. Hopefully he can fix everything without too much effort on his part. (since who knows WHAT this update was for)
Course: https://www.memrise.com/course/190697/curso-de-frances-com-audio/
Where: from the website
Words: I have 504 difficult words to review
Button: orange, the problem happens in the ‘difficult words section’
I’m also getting strange behaviour on web, whereby if I answer a word incorrectly in a (normal) review session, I’ll be prompted to select a Mem as if I’m seeing the word for the first time in a learning session. @Joshua, are you able to investigate?
Still odd behaviour in Speed Review, such as reviewing 46 words and the words to review go down by one word or three only.

I’ve had problems with speed review too, it started yesterday and today it’s just the same - when I do a session the number to review does not go down.

Hi guys,
Apologies for the problems.
We’re working on a fix to Speed Review and it should be rolled out early next week.
one feature is for sure gone: until yesterday morning, it was possible to give the correct answer and then to click “see answer”, for the case you wanted to edit the entry (as creator), or to ckeck some mems… starting yesterday, clicking see answer after giving the right answer goes as wrong answer… a pity, i used this method to add (better) audio files to my own courses

I remember after last year’s problems it took me 3-4 days to work through the piled-up items for review, in their thousands. It does seem to be an annual technical difficulty, like a regularly recurring fever.
it must be sort of an update, now difficult words behaves the same as watering/review
The Speed Review seemed to be working OK on a Kurdish course I have started, but this has only c.760 words. The ones I have had problems with were in their thousands, the smallest, Advanced Spanish, being c.1200.
I guess everyone has already filled in the details, my problem is the same in that all courses are affected.
I did my daily reviews as normal, then I went back to the language page and started on the Modules/Levels, but it took me a couple of these before I noticed I was being short changed. So I did a little experiment to see what was wrong, and there I noticed it for sure. Reviewing has changed, but I have no idea why, it is behaving exactly like it does when I do the reviews from the home page, or suggested daily reviews. I like to do my reviews then go an do each individual module afterwards, as in all of the sentences/questions, but instead I am getting 10 of them.
I had wondered if it was a mistake or some thing, so I ran window washer and even deleted browsing history, I would have restarted my computer, but seeing as I just switched it on and went straight to Memrise, I saw no point in that.
So, what is going off, why is it doing this. Again, it is straight from the language section, not daily or suggested reviews.
