I just bought the digital version of the Player's Handbook in order to unlock content like Forest Gnome as a race. However, despite having paid for the digital PHB, I still cannot choose Forest Gnome, a race that definitely appears in the print version of the PHB. What gives?
I bought the PHB (English version only) -- it shows up as Player's Handbook (Category Bundle) on my receipt. So I assume that's not just the compendium?
Tried quitting my browser and going back in. Have also rebooted the machine and logged out and then back into the DND Beyond site. Same behavior.
I can get to the PHB content itself (e.g., navigate there from Sources), so it does seem like it is available on that level. However, I still don't see Forest Gnome as an available race I can select for character creation.
Hello Eurymache! It appears that you have purchased the Compendium Content version ($19.99) of the Player's Handbook, which unlocks the digital book for you to access on our website and in our mobile app.
The character sheet content is only available with the full book ($29.99), which unlocks all of the tool-set content.
The good news though is that your purchase will already contribute to the other cost. What you have paid already is deducted from the cost of the full book, so you'll only need to pay the difference to complete the title and access all of the tool content on D&D Beyond.

Maybe try reloading your browser? If you just bought it maybe it hasn't loaded/synced with your account just yet.
Also make sure you bought the whole book, not just the compendium (it's rare, but happens sometimes).
