-The Haunted House lacks the Attic (location 19) on the map, despite sufficient space to draw it in either top left or top right corners...
- Chapter 6 location 4 describes a glowing coffer, but then never says anything more about it.... Is it one of the "many lidless coffers" and empty? Who knows, but you can be damn sure my PCs will investigate it rigorously!! Other coffers in the area contain all many of riches...
Google reveals no errata yet published for this module.
This isn't a bug and isnt something that can be fixed by DDB until there is an errata.
Yeah, the attic never had a map drawn in the original game because it's just a full T shape covering the whole house.
The 'blights' tooltip isn't tooltipped, just bolded.
There's no blight monster to tooltip just there. The table below shows that there are three different types of blights that can be found in the area. Making the word "blights" be a tooltip to one of those feels like it would be more misleading than useful.

That's not an issue for knowledgeable folk like me who are just annoyed and inconvenienced by this but for others, it's just a big, bold, lie, like the proverbial cake. Couldn't it at least link to a filtered monster list like: blights?

"Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation."
It's not a lie though, tooltips are for displaying a singular entry as a popup. There's no singular entry for blights so a tooltip for any one of them would be misleading as the encounter specifies there are three that can be encountered. Likewise, linking to a search for blights would be misleading as that yields four blights; three of which found in the encounter and a CR 7 one that decidedly is not.
I found an error in the Ghosts of Saltmarsh campaign book that should be an easy fix.
In Appendix A: Underwater Locations, Cove Reef. In the adventure "Tentacle Trap", Under "Saltmarsh Plot Hook":
Eda Oweland offers the characters a special favor (see “Special Features” in chapter 7 of the Dungeon Master’s Guide) to discover the source of the problem and end it.
This link is not helpful. It should be a link to "Special Favors" in the DMG, not "Special Features".
Found a few errors in the book I'm just gonna put them all in here sorry if there are any repeats I didn't see in the thread already. (also not super familiar with how to do all the fancy stuff so bear with me please)
In Chapter 1, under Saltmarsh region, under Geographic features, under the drowned forest, in the first paragraph, the word "Blight" is bolded however I believe it was meant to link to the monster manual (https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/mm/monsters-b#Blights specifically).
In Appendix A: Underwater locations, Wreck. In the adventure "Merrow Mayhem" the hyperlink for charms doesn't go to charms per se it goes to other rewards which is almost there, https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dmg/other-rewards#Charms would be the more correct link
In Appendix C: Oceanus' stat block has "Melee or Ranged Weapon Attack" bolded when it should be italicized
In Appendix C: Rip Tide Priest's stat block the words "Skills", "Senses", and "Languages" should be bolded but aren't
In Appendix C: Sanbalet's stat block does not have minor illusion linked to the spell

Arrrr, well spotted from up in th' crow's nest, both o' ye! These have been passed along to the team.
Hey folks, here with some feedback on the feedback! As always, thank you - it's appreciated.
This link is not helpful. It should be a link to "Special Favors" in the DMG, not "Special Features".
Thanks, I'll get this resolved.

There are numerous "Blights" some of which are in the Basic Rules and others are in the Monster Manual (and more in other sourcebooks). We took the decision that providing a link here to one of those would be more incorrect than having no link, as it would imply only those blights can be used.
In Appendix A: Underwater locations, Wreck. In the adventure "Merrow Mayhem" the hyperlink for charms doesn't go to charms
That's a miss on our part and the link should absolutely be to the correct point on the page! Now resolved.

Resolved.

Oof. Thanks - that's resolved!

Not sure if this is technically the right place but for Yalaga Maladwyn's stat page (https://www.dndbeyond.com/monsters/yalaga-maladwyn) "perception" in her Sunlight Sensitivity feature does not have a tool tip. Not a big problem but just isn't consistent with all the other Drow stat blocks.

Reference to #87:
The bug is still there, if you hover over the name 'Amphisbaena' in the stat block you can already see that it links to 'the hidden shrine...'
I couldn't find an official thread for this so I'm making my own to post issues I find in it.

I searched for 'ghosts' in titles which is why this thread didn't show up. I mean, it is in the name of the book...
"Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation."
― Oscar Wilde.
Indeed. I observed similar, which is why all of the more recent product releases have included the full name of the product in the title.

Special Favors is in Chapter 7 of the DMG, under "Other Rewards". Here is the correct link: https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dmg/other-rewards#SpecialFavors
Special Features (currently linked) is a section in the DMG about making magic items.
The physical book correctly mentions "Special Favors". This error is unique to D&D Beyond.
Hope this helps.

Thank you - glad to see that my one suggestion helped.
I appreciate you fixing your books, even books like GoS that are slowly becoming older.
