Okay admins.... I'm sure you've heard this before. Please oh please would you please please please with sugar on top customize auto-correct so that it recognizes names, places, and terminology unique to D&D? Might I even suggest a dictionary?That would be most appreciated. Because if I have to edit Purple Warm Inn to Purple Wyrm Inn, or draw to drow, and all other embarrassing rewrites—Anyway, I digress.
I could be wrong here, but generally speaking any kind of spelling your phone/browser says is wrong is because you haven't added it to your phone/browsers dictionary itself. None of this is due to the website. It's all on your side of things. Since you're talking about autocorrect I'm guessing you're using a phone, so the more you type drow or wyrm the more your phone will recognize it and begin using it when you type it. Alternatively you can go in your phones settings then to languages and keyboards and typically there is a user dictionary / personal dictionary where you can add your own words.
there's no autocorrect function within the D&D Beyond site - any spelling suggestions or autocorrect are likely to be a feature of your browser or an application on your laptop.
You should be able to add keywords to it though, so it learns.
In that case, I wasn't aware there were laptops that would autocorrect your typing. Either way, it's because you haven't added that word to your browsers personal dictionary. Just right click the word, and add to dictionary. Or ultimately right click and turn check spelling off.
