I try to add regular inventory. No matter what category I try to put it in (equipment or backpack) the item will not be added. My husband has the same issue. Any ideas of why it’s happening? Thanks!
Same. Trying to add equipment on character sheet with Manage Equipment button allows you to “add item”, but the item doesn’t actually appear in the inventory afterwards.
Just to clarify: Everyone here is clicking Manage Inventory, searching for the item, clicking Add ⌄, and then selecting the container (or generic Equipment) to which you wish to add the item? Do also remember that it is impossible to add containers to other containers at this time — they appear as separate containers on their own. This includes items such as wagons, chests, etc.
Additionally: Do you have any extensions enabled that might be interfering? Beyond20, AboveVTT, ad-blockers, VPNs, etc... It is recommended that these be disabled, as they can interfere with normal character sheet functionality. Does the issue persist if you attempt this in a different browser, or in an Incognito browsing session?
I’m using safari and chrome on an iPad. I can open my character in the DDB app and adding equipment works fine. It seems to work on a laptop in chrome.
To further elaborate: I am using the desktop version of dndbeyond.com on iPadOS. When I select “Manage equipment” and try to click add on anything the selection comes up for adding to a container or my equipment. After selecting where to add it the “Manage Equipment” sidebar disappears and the item doesn’t appear.
If I select the location from the Inventory window (ie. Backpack or equipment) the inventory sidebar comes up and I can select add item search for what I want and click add. The item is added properly to the location I selected.
This issue seemed to manifest after the implementation of containers. There might be something going on with the way the “mobile” browsers handle this function.
This is also is true on the Mobile version of the website.
Had the problem on a safari browser on Ipad. Can´t see that I have any extensions or adblocker atm.. I pressed Manage Inventory, searched battleaxe and add item to both Backpack and Equipment and none worked. Played a long time with the Ipad and DndBeyond, but seemed like the problem appeared after the implementation of the containers (as balingar said)
That said it worked on Google Chrome on my mobile. So probably something with safari/Ipad?
EDIT: Also tried incognito mode and a different browser (google chrome) on my Ipad. Same issue!
I can confirm that—on Safari on iPad—if a character has any containers other than equipment, you can’t add additional equipment. I started with a test character with no containers. Added a bag of holding, no problem. Tried adding a wand of magic missiles. I click add, get the drop down to choose bag of holding or equipment, tap on equipment, and the dropdown disappears, but the item is not added. can’t be a browser extension, etc., as safari on iPad doesn’t support extensions. I don’t use a vpn. I tested in landscape, so it’s not a portrait/landscape issue (like some things are on mobilej
I had occasional success by selecting one of the container tabs at the top instead of “all”. However only occasionally works. I think it may be more recent of a problem with ability to add custom items to the containers.
same as others. I'm using my iPad...safari. I am clicking manage inventory and attempting to put it in either equipment or backpack. It is not working on my or my husband's character. I have no extensions. It is every character of ours. I was able to add a weapon using starting equipment, but not by the usual method of manage inventory.
I can also add inventory if I use the app, but I don't like the interfaces of the app. I prefer using safari (or web based interface).
I'm using a Desktop PC, using Firefox. To confirm, I've disabled anti-adware, other extensions and antivirus but I'm still unable to add items. None of my characters are able to add items but one is below.
Any idea when this bug will be fixed? Thanks so much!
I have no information on this, no. Only that the issue has been raised, to be seen by the appropriate team! And as usual, D&D Beyond does not provide ETAs.

Same issue here! :(
Can you post a link to the affected character sheets, as well as a step-by-step description of how you're adding the equipment? Thanks!
I am having the same issue…

Thank you for that extra information! I can reproduce the issue on my own mobile devices now. I'll be passing this all along to the team!

I’m using safari on iOS 14, but also tried Mozilla and Chrome. Same bug whether it’s phone or tablet.
