Having said that...It's still not working and the character sheet update hasn't been released yet. :-(
The character builder update is in the upcoming/short term roadmap, which means coding work on it hasn’t started. “Short term” is usually still quite a ways off.
So, you're saying, if we keep mentioning an issue that has taken an inordinate amount of time to repair, then we would get locked out for voicing our concerns? Kinda like censorship? Just checking if that is D&D's official policy when I contact WOTC to ask them that? I though WOTC was about inclusion not censorship. That is horrible to hear that they would censor people for reminding them of issues.
Having said that, there has been no "bumps" as you say. All of my posts are in reply to other ones (mostly your criticisms) , so, I have every right to reply when a post is made. That isn't a "bump". And, when you reply to this post (of which you have my implicit permission) I will reply to that as well. Not a "bump", a "reply" (that will keep pushing it to the top I am sure). Big difference.
Also, keeping it in their crosshairs reminds them it needs attention. People DO forget or overlook things at time. EVERYONE can't be as perfect as others on this board.

They already said the issue is planned to be fixed with a particular update (it just hasn't happened yet), posts that contribute nothing except to move the thread to the front of the forum are against the rules.
DDB is not owned or operated by WotC. And it isn't censorship, it is site policy, if you have something to add, by all means post it, but everyone repeating themselves doesn't add anything.
I didn't say or mean to imply that every post is a bump, just the "is still issue" posts. Obviously replies are not bumps (though we are getting off topic which is a different problem).
Maybe we should all find and upvote any requests for character sheet updates or bug fixes here: https://ddb.ac/feature-requests
It is not owned or operated by WOTC, but they ARE affiliated with them and have licensing agreements in order for the them to use the content, logos, descriptions, and other information. They most certainly have a business agreement, and with WOTC being the trademark holder, they are a lot higher up on the ladder that DDB.
Also, for the record, I am not replying just to move the thread to the top of the column, that is an erroneous assumption on your part. I am replying to the thread to have my say which IS allowed, since that is what a forum is all about. If you read the thread above, when people post something that YOU don't like, YOU are the one that is replying and telling them to stop (which bumps it up to the top of the column). So, if you maybe just left things be, then MAYBE, just maaaaaybe, there won't be so many posts that bump this up. Because, I can assure you, I, for one, would NOT have been replying if it weren't for your input in trying to control the thread. Give it a shot, see what happens, because I can ASSURE you, if you reply, I will reply in kind. If you don't, then I let it go and it doesn't keep getting bumped. It's all up to you to be honest.
I appreciate that this was acknowledged in April, and then there was a status update in September, yet I'm still surprised that there is no "band-aid" for this. I mean, I understand that the "final version" of the character sheet will have all the Ranger's favored enemies listed in one spot and that it will look great and will be very convenient, but right now half of them don't show up at all. So I would think it would be easy enough to set the Ranger's various sets of favored enemies, which they obtain as they level up, as separate features. Yeah, they wouldn't be grouped, and there would be other features in between the groups on the character sheet, but at least they'd exist. I wish they'd do that.

That is actually the problem. The character sheet has a shortcut coded into so features with the same name are replaced by the newest iteration. This was likely to make extra attack (and similar) display only the new count, but it caused this bug.
Since this bug is caused by something within the core of the character sheet, it will take a lot of man hours to change it and fix any bugs that it causes. They are currently using those man hours on new projects and have scheduled to work on this issue later.
Only if their coders dont know what they are doing. This issue looks like they are only reading the latest (position 0) of the array instead of iterating through the whole array. Sould be a 15-30 min fix.
I am also having the same, reported issue. I am a subscriber, not just a casual user. I also have experience in IT. This type of bug should not take long to fix. Each time a favored enemy is gained, it should be identified by a separate line under Favored Enemy, similar to how additional Favored Terrains are listed. With the bug being reported over 10 months ago, and users still asking for it to be fixed, can D&D Beyond please fix it? Thanks for your time.
Yeah, it's an old bug. Basically certain features that have the same name at multiple levels just replace each other. Modifiers (if there are any) from the lower level feat still work, it is strictly a display bug. It effects ASIs of all classes, expertise, and bard magical secrets to name a few more.
The devs are aware of it, but to fix the cause requires not insignificant work on the character sheet's code (apparently).
So I made a level 20 Fey Wanderer for a UA test game, the options selected at levels 1 and 6 don't show on the sheet, only the level 14 option does. I rarely ever use rangers (I'm a wizard, monk, paladin kinda guy) so I'm unsure if this is a Fey Wanderer this or a ranger thing?

Yeah this is an old known bug with a bug report thread with over 100 comments floating around somewhere. This bug actually effects a lot of features that you gain at multiple levels: magical secrets, expertise, and even ASIs.

That's because the issue has not been fixed yet.
I just said that status update bumps aren't helpful.
I know, that's why I posted it. As a joke. LOL.

I disagree. The squeaky wheel gets the grease.
In this case the "grease" will be a mod locking it for repeated bumps.

10 months later, and this still appears to be a bug on the character sheet
edit: just saw the reply from September

I have a lvl 10 ranger I have noticed that my first option of Favoured enemy is not showing on my character sheet only the second option is.

I did not know that, thank you.
this still an issue.
Natural Explorer feat lists all acquired terrains correctly though.
Shouldn't Favored Enemy have a similar logic?
btw. Ability Score Improvement does the same thing. only lists the last scores chosen.

My level 11 ranger is also having this issue:
