I've been putting in my spell list for my Bard. But I'm running into a problem where I have 2 third level spells available but because I have Mac-Fuirmidh Cittern it's not allowing me to put in a second spell because it is counting Fly as my second third level spell. Is there a way around this anyone knows of.
The spells from your magic item should not count against your spells known, nor should you need to add them manually, you just add the magic item. If that’s not the issue, please post a link to your character.
Hello! As a level 5 Bard you get to know up to 3 cantrips, and up to 8 spells.
I am seeing on your sheet that you know 8 spells (Comprehend Languages, Cure Wounds, Faerie Fire, Tasha's Hideous Laughter, Cloud of Daggers, Shatter, Silence, and Leomund's Tiny Hut), so you know the correct number of spells for a 5th level Bard.
A common confusion with spells is that you have Spells Known and Spell Slots, which are separate things. Spells Known represent the options you have, while your Spell Slots represent the amount of arcane power you have to cast those spells.
As a 5th level Bard while you know 8 spells, you have four 1st-level, three 2nd-level, and two 3rd-level "slots" that you can use to cast them. The "slots" don't give you more spells to cast, they allow you to cast the spells you know that many times, at that power level.

I didn't add them. They were added automatically when I added the Cittern. Somehow it seems to be counting towards my spell count. https://www.dndbeyond.com/profile/Amishman/characters/24421023

I hope that helps!
Oh alright. I see now where I made my error. Thanks for the help.
