Players in my campaign are attempting to create new characters and in the past, they've been able to see all the options when I shared material with them. It would appear now, however, that a lot of content is missing. Sometimes the things seem very random, in fact. Is there a character creation bug or is something else happening?
As an example, my girlfriend is unable to access the forest gnome subrace or the artificer subclass but can access bloodhunter and svirfneblin.
Blood Hunter and svirfneblin, are both free content. Forest Gnomes are PHB content, and the Artificer is not a subclass, but a base class. In order to use the Artificer, any of the subclasses for it must have been purchased from either Eberron or Tasha’s Cauldron.
If you have purchased the PHB and Eberron from this website, then one of four things has likely happened.
You did not activate content sharing for the campaign. If you did, try turning it off and back on again.
They are not building their characters in the campaign in which you are sharing that content. If she’s builder her character outside of that campaign, she can’t use what you’re sharing in that campaign. Resend the join link and make sure she’s making the character specifically in that campaign.
It turned out to be number 2. I feel like this was not the case in the past, I could have sworn that she made characters outside of the campaign using my books and materials.
Thank you!

Or option (5) in previous campaigns you had an additional player who had a Master subscription, and thus you all had access to their PHB.
