"Info" button in review doesn't always point at the right lesson

Example here:

If I press the “info” button, I get linked to (IIRC), this lesson.

But… that’s not the thing I got wrong. The thing I got wrong is actually contained in this lesson.

I’m not sure how easy this is to fix, or if it’s been reported before, but the current behavior does not help explain my mistake at all.

Wow, thanks! I didn’t think that would be an easy fix.

Unfortunately I’m not sure this was fixed. Yesterday (on app version dated Aug 27), the following happened:

(1) I got the question wrong like this:

(2) I clicked the info button and was taken here:

But, I applied everything in that lesson correctly. The mistake I made was with the て conjugation for a Godan verb ending in る. So, arguably I should have been taken to the page explaining how those conjugations work. Alternately, I should be taken to a page explaining that 怒る is a Godan verb (which doesn’t even exist in Bunpro grammar AFAIK). Or both of those things.

Which kind of brings me to a larger issue. When I get a question wrong, one of two things happened:

  1. I actually failed the grammar pattern being tested.
  2. I failed to recognize that a verb ending in る was a Godan verb, or that an adjective ending in い was actually a な adjective.

In the case of 2, I get a little bit puzzled about whether or not this is a Bunpro problem or a me probelm. I got on Bunpro under the assumption it would allow me to focus only on grammar. But, without a perfect knowledge of verb and adjective categories… I can’t actually do that. I might start another post about this, because I’m curious what others think. A halfway solution might be to reveal to users (optionally) the categorization of the verb/adjective being conjugated, to allow them to focus only on the grammar patterns.

Sorry!
The bug that has been fixed was the info button sometimes leading to wrong grammar pages (for example reviewing ‘da’ but info opening 'ている’). I thought this was the case here.

The info button actually works as intended in this case, it opens lesson for reviewed grammar/vocab, not for the mistaken grammar unfortunatelly. :bowing_man:

Might be good idea for the suggestions topic.

Yeah I figured. That’s why I originally said above “wow I did not think this would be an easy fix!” Completely understand that pinpointing my mistake would not be straightforward. Thanks for the response.
