Kaniwani Major Update: 1.3.4!

[Antigone]

Thank you for getting back to me, and thank you for explaining more about KW.

I apologize for not explaining very well. I think the best way I can explain what I mean and not waste any of your time is to quote a conversation I had on the thread “how do/did you learn Japanese”. It is a little lengthy, so I apologize for that as well.

@Antigone

Did you start using Kaniwani from the start? I didn’t, and I’m seriously regretting it now that I’m talking with language partners. I want to start but I’m overwhelmed with how much ground I have to cover…

@SleepyOne

One option with the KW configuration is to only do reviews there for words that you’ve burned here on WK. That way you get a fairly slow, steady trickle of material over there and you’re not overwhelmed with 15 levels worth of words.

@Naphthalene

The standard setting is what @ .SleepyOne said, plus the current level. That is, KW takes the active items from your current level = those you have done the lessons for, plus the one you burned from previous levels. If you don’t have burned items yet (or few of them), it won’t be overwhelming at all.

I started KW maybe two weeks ago, and it’s actually nice.

@Antigone

Oh! So I can do both recent items and burned items by default? I went into the setting to change to only burned items.

@Naphthalene

Well, that’s what I am doing.
You can also manually unlock some level or item.
I feel it’s nice to use it for the current level, so that progress on both sides are mirrored. At the same time, getting burned items means I will eventually get everything, but slow and steady rather than all at once.

@Antigone

This is a bit of a late response, but I’m interested in getting that mirrored progress on Kaniwani. I currently have my reviews to burned items only, but I also want to be working on my level 16 reviews and can’t unlock any 16 items with burned only enabled…

Do I just have to go down to apprentice and pick and choose what items to unlock?

@Naphthalene

I’m not sure. The setting was like that when I started. I didn’t touch anything.
I guess you could put it to “default”? Not sure.

@Antigone

Shoot. I don’t seem to have a default option. Thank you for responding! I’ll see if I can figure it out.

@Naphthalene

They are pretty reactive in the KW thread on the forum. You will probably have more luck if you ask there.

I may have misunderstood or overlooked something. I hope you can shed light on the situation. Thank you for your time.
