I created a home brew weapon tonight and I tried to place it on my players sheet and it does not appear in the list of weapons on the add inventory screen. I posted and it was approved by the bot for community upload. Here is the link to the weapon:
First, make sure the homebrew in question is in your homebrew collection. Only homebrew specifically in your collection will be available to add to a character sheet.
Then, on the Home tab of the character builder, or on the Character Settings sidebar of the character sheet, the toggle next to “Homebrewed Content” needs to be on (red, to the right).
If the Homebrew in question is a subclass, is your character at the correct level to select a subclass? Only Clerics, Sorcerers, and Warlocks select their subclasses at 1st level, the rest all select their subclasses at 2nd (Druids & Wizards) or 3rd level (everything else).
If the Homebrew in question is a weapon or armor set, and your character is not proficient with the item, make sure that the "Proficient" box is not checked under the search parameters.

I looked at your FAQ list. It didn't cover my specific problem. Thanks for replying.
Does it not appear in your list of weapons, or hers? Has she clicked enable homebrew and tried to add it herself?
How does this not apply?

I apologize, I missed that one. That's what it was. Homebrew wasn't turned on.
No need to apologize, happy to help.
