Hello. I am testing content sharing for my new group of players and now I see some bugs that I encounter when I wanted to create an example character. I only share PHB through the campaign (but I have more books on DNDBeyond).
When I first want to create a character, it seems that I do not have access to the PHB (Forest Gnome is missing, for example) whereas I can see the entire PHB under sources.
When I go to classes and go back to races... suddenly more races are available, like tabaxi and such (I have not enabled any other source books). I cannot access the Tabaxi page, but I can select in the character creation screen.
Is this a bug??? I really want to keep it simple with just the PHB-races and classes.
As soon as content sharing is enabled all books owned by anyone in the campaign are automatically shared with everyone in the campaign. That list of books you checked off or on only restricts access to the compendium content, not the character options. You cannot see the Tabaxi page because you toggled that compendium content off, but as you can see, the option is still selectable. As for the gnome, sometimes it takes a page refresh for a character sheet to register that content sharing has been enabled, which is what happened when you switched tabs forward and backward.
For races, you can tell your players to use the 'filter race source(s)' dropdown at the top, but there's no such filter in the classes page. If you're doing PHB only, your best bet is to just give them a list of the available subclasses, unfortunately.
