Now that the new 2024 edition is out and in the builder I can no longer opt for or even see the character options from Tasha's and Xanathars?
Those can still be applied to the 2014 classes as they always could. You can't apply the optional features to the 2024 classes. Many of the features from Tasha's are now baked into the classes themselves, and they were all reworked.
This is false. The Oath of the Watchers is available on a 2024 Paladin. You need to make sure your books are synced and if you don't own them, you probably have access to someone's campaign that has them. You'd need to create the character in that Campaign, in that case.
So, I have that option selected, but I still don't have any options when choosing the tab for the optional features.
There are no optional features on 2024 classes, those were all for 2014 classes. Many of the optional features were worked into the 2024 classes, anything not included were intentionally left out.

The 2024 classes don't have access to the Tasha's features. If designers wanted them to apply to the new classes, they could've (and sometimes did) add them to the base class. It makes no sense to give them optional features you need another book to access.
If you want to be making a 2014 class, make sure legacy is on and scroll down in class selection.

All the stuff from books outside the core three is controlled by the "extended rules" toggle.
