I'm not sure if this is much of a bug because the spells are showing properly in the spell list, but here goes.
I have a couple homebrew items that aren't showing the spell listed in the description of the item itself in the character builder. Now when I go to the details page, it shows them just fine and they are linked and everything. I have some screenshots to show you all what I mean. It's happened on at least two of the items I've built and the spells specifically being effected on these are cloudkill, fog cloud, cone of cold, and wind wall. There might be others that are doing this but this is just what I've noticed.
That's the weird thing, I did add these items to a test character when I built them a long time ago and everything appeared fine at the time. It was only when one of my players added it recently that we noticed these issues.
It's almost certainly an issue with the HTML. If you click the Source code button to have a peek at the underlying code for the Festerwood Fungal Stave, for instance:
In addition to all of the unnecessary <em> tags (which I would recommend be removed), there are a handful of entities that should be replaced with regular spaces. For the first two spells in particular, you can see that these non-breaking spaces are enclosed within the spell tags, rather than outside (like the rest), and are presumably what cause the display problems in the character sheet sidebar.
It's also worth mentioning that per the Homebrew Rules & Guidelines, which you agree to when publishing homebrew content, you should not be publishing copyrighted or third-party content; your homebrew collection is shared with your campaigns automatically, and you do not need to publish this content for your players to be able to use it.
