So i found a problem with the Worlock Invocations.In the PHB. on page 110. Book of the Ancient Secrets. D&D Beyond dose not allow you to put ritual spells that you have learned into your spell list from other classes. Book of the Ancient Secrets on the other hand brakes that rule. When you choose this Invocation there should really be a way to add the first Two ritual spells from all classes and all level ritual spells that you learn into your spell book. The Pact of the Tome feature on page 108 of the PHB. already allows for Cantrips of any class. So the manic for this already works. A copy of the Invocation is copped down below.
Thank you for your time.

Book of the Ancient Secrets
Prerequisite: Pact of the Tome feature
You can now inscribe magical rituals in your Book of Shadows. Choose two 1st-level spells that have the ritual tag from any class’s spell list (the two needn’t be from the same list). The spells appear in the book and don’t count against the number of spells you know. With your Book of Shadows in hand, you can cast the chosen spells as rituals. You can’t cast the spells except as rituals, unless you’ve learned them by some other means. You can also cast a warlock spell you know as a ritual if it has the ritual tag.
On your adventures, you can add other ritual spells to your Book of Shadows. When you find such a spell, you can add it to the book if the spell’s level is equal to or less than half your warlock level (rounded up) and if you can spare the time to transcribe the spell. For each level of the spell, the transcription process takes 2 hours and costs 50 gp for the rare inks needed to inscribe it.
This is a known problem, and has already been aknowledged by the developers. I haven't seen confirmation yet, but common belief in the warlock forums is that the fix will come along with the revamped character sheets...
In the meantime a solution used by many (myself included) is creating a homebrew magic item that gives you access to those ritual spells you want. Not an ideal solution, but it does help until an actual fix comes in.
I dare not take credit for that idea because I also read it here in the forums, but still, happy to help.
I should note, though, that this "solution" will show those spells "inside" the item description, which means they'll be easily accessible if you use the web-based character sheet (desktop or mobile), but they still won't show up on your spell list when you export your CS to PDF.
So we join the rest of this community as we sit still and chew our fingers off anxiously waiting for those revamped character sheets...
Yeah.. Ritual caster feat has same problem. Had to recreate it. Really hope the revamp is coming soon. These features are like basic stuff.

Actually, this has been fixed since the character sheet revamp came out, though you'll have to head over to "Edit Character", and the select the rituals inside the "Eldritch Invocations" section.
yeah been fixed already, both the feat and the invocation can now add things to it. you have to go to edit character and then look into the invocation and feat themselves. you'll see an added section which can add more rituals.

This was actually my issue as well. I can't play my character using D&D Beyond without this feature.
I have had to resort to using the filled in sheets provided and then just manually adding in the ritual spells my character has learned.
It defeats the purpose of this app (and also the amount of money I have spent). Please fix!

ohhh... good idea! thanks! I will do that for now!
