We're conducting a homebrew campaign, and we came up with custom backgrounds for everyone. I created them under my account and they were able to apply them to their characters, but certain things are not showing up on their sheets like tool proficiencies or equipment. Is that something that needs to be added separately or is that a bug?
To add, I've ensured that homebrew content is active on their characters.
the character sheet shows proficiency with Jeweler's Tools and Painter's Supplies, which is what was selected from the homebrew background. They are at the bottom-left of the character sheet, under the heading "TOOLS"
Equipment wasn't added as it wasn't configured within the background - this is likely because it's fairly obscure how that form works.
E.g. Here is what you currently have for "a set of common clothes"
Hello,
We're conducting a homebrew campaign, and we came up with custom backgrounds for everyone. I created them under my account and they were able to apply them to their characters, but certain things are not showing up on their sheets like tool proficiencies or equipment. Is that something that needs to be added separately or is that a bug?
To add, I've ensured that homebrew content is active on their characters.
Here's a link to one of them: https://www.dndbeyond.com/profile/BearCri/characters/22080003
They're suppose to also be showing Jeweler Tool Proficiency and have a handful of custom items.
Hello! Can you please provide a link to the homebrew background being used for this character?
Certainly!

D&D Beyond FoundersHi there,
the character sheet shows proficiency with Jeweler's Tools and Painter's Supplies, which is what was selected from the homebrew background. They are at the bottom-left of the character sheet, under the heading "TOOLS"
Equipment wasn't added as it wasn't configured within the background - this is likely because it's fairly obscure how that form works.
E.g. Here is what you currently have for "a set of common clothes"
here is how it should be configured:

If you need help with homebrew, please post on the homebrew forums, where multiple staff and moderators can read your post and help you!
"We got this, no problem! I'll take the twenty on the left - you guys handle the one on the right!"🔊
Awesome! Thank you so much!
I'll get those items fixed!
I was looking in the wrong place for the proficiency, thinking you would see it under "Features & Traits"
Thanks again!
