If i create a homebrew item that requires attunement, how do I get the attunement to stick? I clicked the box in the item creator, and I tried a whole bunch of different attunement descriptions (which are evidently required) but whenever I test it out in a character sheet it doesn't need attunement. the instructions for how to create the attunement requirement are kind of unclear. can anyone help me?
Sometimes it can take 20 minutes or so for changes in homebrew to "propagate" to character sheets. You may also need to remove and re-add the item to the character? Also try adding to a different character if it's still not working.

Attunement descriptions are not required, you can skip those. There are several caches involved, one for the magic items, another for the character sheets, your browser too… it sometimes takes patience. After you save your changes to the item it could take a li’l bit for things to catch up, give it at least 20 minutes just in case. After that, either change your character’s inventory or level and then putting it back. That forces the sheet to look for updates.
