Homebrew Magic Items don't seem to be working properly. I already know they can take up to 20 mins to update and I verified all characters involved had homebrew content turned on. Some of the items are mora than a week old and have been on the sheets for at least a week. Issue is showing on my side and the player's so it is not a refresh issue. Specific examples...
Issue 1-Made an item with +1 bonus spell attack and it is not updating the spell attack when equipped. This item is not set up to need attunement so not an attunement issue. I set it up using "Bonus - Spell Attacks" with a fixed value of 1. This also did not work on a second item I made. I tried changing the item to use "Bonus - Magic" with a fixed value of 1 which is what the staff of power uses (except a fixed value of 2) but still no effect. Character is level 2 Warlock with a CHR pf +3 and a Proficiency Bonus of +2 and the magic attack stat stays at +5. There are no other items giving a magic attack bonus so it is not a stacking issue. Tested it on another character with the same result.
Made multiple items with bonus feats. Feats never show up for the character. If anyone else is having this issue you can fix it manually under manage feats. This was tested on multiple characters.
Not all feats are showing as an option when creating a magic item but the missing ones are from Tasha's so that may just not be added yet.
I am having the same issue, I tried adding the item to a different character, and that character gets the new version, but the original character's version doesn't get updated.
Removing and adding back does not fix this. Making a brand new item with a different name doesn't work either. I also tried copying a working item and tweaking it, that also doesn't work. Good to know about the feats though.
I have since found that removing the item, waiting a while (I deleted it then waited till the next day), the re-adding it seemed to work
An easier thing to do is simply increase/decrease the character’s level and then put it back again. That forces the cache for that character sheet to update and look for the updated info. Then just be patient the same way.
I am still encountering this issue even after following all of the previous advice regarding clearing the cache, leveling up and down, removing the item and adding it back. Nothing seems to work.

After you add anything to, change anything on, or remove anything from any homebrew you MUST re-save the entire thing using the main [SAVE CHANGES] button under Basic Information or the system won’t pick up your changes. After that it can sometimes take up to 20 minutes for those changes to push through to the character builder/sheet.
