Unfortunately, years later this is still an issue. I am a bard with Magic Initiate (Sorcerer) and have chosen Chromatic Orb as one of my spells. However, it only shows up in my Level 1 spells and doesn't show the option of casting it at a higher level. Not only that, when I cast it, it doesn't fill in one of my Level 1 spell slots, so it makes it look like a cantrip. I've tried changing the spell to something else and adding it back, and I've even logged out of my account and back in. Nothing seems to help. What can I do?
NOTE: I have purchased the PHB long ago in D&D Beyond, so that shouldn't be an issue.

"Choose a class: bard, cleric, druid, sorcerer, warlock, or wizard. You learn two cantrips of your choice from that class’s spell list. In addition, choose one 1st-level spell to learn from that same list. Using this feat, you can cast the spell once at its lowest level, and you must finish a long rest before you can cast it in this way again. Your spellcasting ability for these spells depends on the class you chose: Charisma for bard, sorcerer, or warlock; Wisdom for cleric or druid; or Intelligence for wizard."
I have scrolled through the spells for lvl 1 wizard but i cant find the spell Chromatic Orb, is it a bug or something going wrong on my end?
Do you have access to the Players Handbook, whether by ownership or sharing in a campaign that you're building the character in?
Chromatic Orb isn't in the free basic rules.

Thank you for pointing that out to me. I've had the character a while, so I didn't recall that highlighted portion.
