Hello all, maybe I missed a setting somewhere but anytime I try to put custom notes on items they get deleted after a page refresh. In example Potion of Climbing or health potions, it's just gone on a page refresh. I have already lost a fair amount of work and this is a bit maddening.

Whenever you notice stuff like that happening it means the server’s internal cache has somehow lagged out of synch with your browser cache. Usually if one waits hints eventually catch up, or you can force things to try to catch up more quickly by logging out and back in.

It works and shows up in the equipment sheet with the custom note text but the moment someone or I refresh the page it's just gone. Every single time without fail, there is no waiting for it to catch up and if I relog or move away from the page it's just all gone. Also did I save it? Where is this save button.
I never mentioned “saving” anything. There is no save button for custom notes added to things on a character sheet.
I did not say that waiting for things to catch up would bring your notes back, nor that relogging would bring your lost notes back, either. The notes you lost are gone forever now. What I said was that relogging would force things to catch up with each other and prevent it from happening anymore. So log out and back in, wait about 15 minutes for things to catch up, and then try adding new notes. The new ones should not get deleted this time.
If that doesn’t fix the problem for you, are you perhaps running any ad/popup blockers, browser extensions, or a VPN that may be interfering with DDB?
I've had notes that stayed on my sheet for multiple sessions disappear out of nowhere, which I don't think could be cache. Example 1: character A has is reading a Manual of Quickness of Action. I'm using the notes field to track her progress. I make a note, it stays. Next session a week letter, I update the note, it stays. Two weeks later, at the next session, I go to update the note again but it's gone, and I don't have any idea how far along she was since I trusted the note to continue to stay. Example 2: character B is a life cleric, with all the issues that entails. I've given up and used the comment field in all my healing spells to remind myself that character B gets healed when he casts the spell on someone else. Several months after I made that note, I realize the note is gone from all his healing spells. Not just ones that haven't been prepared lately, but ones that are always prepared because of his subclass.
Really?!? I haven’t noticed anything like that happen to a not that’s been there for a while. What all browsers does everybody here use? I am on Safari an either an iPhone 11, or an iPad 5.
I'm on Firefox 82 on a Mac. Not sure if the browser version was the same when I first saw the issues appear (at least 2 weeks ago for character A, and I think last week for character B).
I am on google chrome myself and would really like this issue fixed so I can properly use d&d beyond and DM. Also when I was talking about the save thing earlier it was in response to another comment asking me if I saved it.
