I play a rogue with a homebrew spellcasting subclass. I used DDB's built-in homebrew designer. I'm able to see all the other elements of my homebrew perfectly fine, but I can't figure out how to add spells. When I click "manage spells", I see a message that says "You do not have spellcasting or pact magic spells to manage. The spells that appear for your character were gained through other class features, racial traits, feats, or items." I also can't seem to find anything on the Classes page of my character sheet when I'm editing it. What can I do about this?
…When I click "manage spells", I see a message that says "You do not have spellcasting or pact magic spells to manage. The spells that appear for your character were gained through other class features, racial traits, feats, or items."
For the spells:
Any spells added through the “Spells” section of a class feature are considered whole separate from any spells gained through the Spellcasting feature. And therefore cannot be managed.
Any spells add as part of the “Additional Spell List” section of a class feature are meant to be added onto the main spell list for the subclass.
To establish a main spell list that can be managed, then under Basic Information for the whole subclass itself you must either select a class, like Wizard, in the the main “Additional Spell List” section there (I know it’s confusing, just go with it), or you must list a series of specific spells in the “Additional Specific Spells” section.
I also can't seem to find anything on the Classes page of my character sheet when I'm editing it. What can I do about this?
Class Page:
When you write “the class page, do you mean the Class tab of the character builder, or do you mean the Class Features section of the Features & Traits area of the character sheet itself? The character sheet displays information entered into the Snippet fields for things in the homebrewer. The Class tab of the builder displays what was entered into the Description field.

Okay. I don’t know how you organized your subclass, but lemme help with what I can.
