eldritch Invocations and a lot of third party material is only available for the 2014 classes even tho its should be cross compatible
There's been a number of threads on this topic already...
-Eldritch Invocations in the system treat the two classes separately. Whether it's by design or not (which is debated and not the point of this) you're only able to select 2024 Invocations in 2024 Warlock at this time.
-Third Party subclasses must be added by the third-party developers before Beyond is allowed to use it that way officially. It's widely assumed to be a legal issue in the licensing. A few third-party sources are already compatible with 2024 classes thanks to the developers of said sources making it so. In the meantime, your only option is to recreate the subclasses via homebrew (which is easier to do if you have the official code side-by-side with the replicated version).
The fact you cant recreate these invocation because you cannot make custom invocations is the issue here. Not only are they not allowing the use of the things you paid for with the new classes but they wont even allow you to remedy this by letting us create custom invocations. I dont care if there are threads about this already they need to stop being lazy and fix this site. It would take 1 week at the absolute max to add a custom invocation feature or simply create an option to link the new vs old class options. It's also stupid to say its a licensing issue when the spells from those third party sources work fine on the 2024 classes. So only some of the stuff isnt transferring. If they are claiming its do to anything but poor dnd beyond design they are blatantly lying. Its also interesting that even tho you claim to not be an employee you seem to be running a lot of defense for wizards even tho they have been shown to simply be lazy and making excuses on numerous occasions

-Custom invocations would fix certain things for some people. If it's that big of a deal to you, create a custom feat to replicate the function. In the meantime, explaining that the back end treats the two versions of the classes as separate entities isn't "running defense", it's trying to help you understand the root of the issue. (The real issue is that the site is held together with bubble gum and duct tape and WotC canned a lot of the original team when they acquired the site.)
-As I also pointed out above, there's debate on whether or not you're even supposed to be able to use the Invocations from Xanathar's and Tasha's with the new version of Warlock. From Tasha's, the only Invocations left out are Far Scribe, Undying Servitude, Pact of the Talisman, and those tied to Pact of the Talisman. From Xanathar's, only a couple made it through, but the book wasn't entirely ignored there either, since they kept Eldritch Smite and Gift of the Depths. So that makes the exclusion of the others seem intentional to a lot of people (myself included). Could be reprinted with updated text in future books, we can say pretty confidently that we're likely getting another book full of player options, since we don't have even all the updated Wizard subclasses.
-The licensing issue, as I clearly stated (not that you actually read anything, apparently), applies specifically to subclasses. It's 100% confirmed that the third-party developers are the ones who must submit the 2024-compatible subclasses. Spells are a separate thing and can be tagged with the updated classes. Feats aren't tied to class. Species aren't tied to class. Backgrounds aren't tied to class. This is why subclasses are the only impacted item on the list.
As for your "I dont care if there are threads about this already" bit, that's literally just established forum etiquette. Since forums have been a thing on the internet. Basically, quit cluttering the forums so that issues can be properly prioritized. (Especially since the forums are, first and foremost, a community spot. The devs don't pay attention here; there ARE a couple of individuals who are in touch with the dev team here, but the main contact seems to be quick fixes, especially with new releases. If you care this much, submit a ticket and get in line.

There's no debate over whether you're supposed to be able to use them on DnDBeyond, a member of staff has confirmed that they intend them to be usable but haven't been able to implement them yet.
It's just on the extremely long list of things that they will probably never fix, as they seem to have abandoned maintenance/development in favor of shovelling out more third party content (which itself is badly and incompletely implemented).
