Hi everyone, I'd like to share a homebrewed monster I made but it says it cannot be shared because it "has text that includes External Links." However, I have not inputted any external links at all. It only has spell links through the [spell] tag and skill links through [skill] tag. Any idea whats up?
Looking at the source code, it looks like in addition to the [spell] tooltips, the spells are linking to the spell page on D&D Beyond as well - which is causing the error message. It is odd that its not showing up in the actual text box, but as IamSposta stated, clicking on the </> button shows those class links. I would recommend cutting that entire section (with ctrl+x), then pasting it as plain text (ctrl+shift+v) - this will ensure that any HTML artifacts are removed.
This did! Thank you very much. I did originally copy/paste the spell list from the original Faerie Dragon page, but when I looked in the source code myself I didn't see any linking left over so I'm not sure what was up with that. Either way, cutting and pasting as plain text worked like a charm. Thanks again!

At the top of the description field, hit the button with the following symbol:
</>
That will let you see the code. If you copy/pasted anything, there may still be some residual linkage left that you cannot see.

Thanks! I did copy/paste some stuff, but I looked in the source code and didn't see any links at all.

D&D Beyond StaffCan you post a link to your homebrew monster? It doesn't need to be set to public in order for myself or another moderator to take a look.
Sure! I've checked the source code in all the sections and don't see any links btw. https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/1108724-faerie-dragon-familiar-variant

I'm having the same issue, can you take a look at mine? https://www.dndbeyond.com/homebrew/creations/monsters/3644185-liquid-beast/edit
