Below are some troubleshooting tips you can try if you are unable to create new flashcards:
-* Individual icons will appear grayed out if a flashcard cannot be created for the current definition (e.g. it already exists in the deck).
-* If all of the buttons appear grayed out, then you should double-check your deck and model configuration settings.
-* If no icons appear at all, make sure that Anki is running in the background and that [AnkiConnect](https://foosoft.net/projects/anki-connect) has been installed.
