I just created an Oath of the Crown Paladin. In the spells section of his character sheet, his oath spells are not listed as prepared in the spell list. The PHB says that these spells are always prepared, so I would expect them to always be prepared on the character sheet.
Each oath has a list of associated spells. You gain access to these spells at the levels specified in the oath description. Once you gain access to an oath spell, you always have it prepared.Oath spells don’t count against the number of spells you can prepare each day.
If you gain an oath spell that doesn’t appear on the paladin spell list, the spell is nonetheless a paladin spell for you.

And if I had to manually prepare them in the list, that wouldn't be too bad. But the sheet doesn't give me any extra prepared spell slots to do this. At fifth level it's only giving me my five (I think?) prepared slots, without taking into account that I also have four more oath spells always prepared.
That appears to be a bug in the Oath of the Crown specifically - the other Oaths are automatically preparing the oath spells and leaving the other slots for spell preparation.
Rebuilding the character seemed to clear up the issue. I think it's because I selected them manually before the fix was implemented. Although, now that I think about it, I probably could have just removed and re-added the class levels.
That may have been related to some caching or artifacts of the update. If you prepare, say, Command and then choose Oath of the Crown, that spell will be automatically prepared for you, but it will no longer count against your total prepared spell (as it would have prior to you choosing that Oath)
It doesn't work anymore. If you do random character creator, the oath spells show under prepared, but if you make a paladin manually, the oath spells don't show.
I have a player that is oath of the crown and some of the oath spells are showing up but not all. Compel duel and aura of vitality are not showing up like they should as always prepared. they are not even on the spell list.

Hi. Do either of you have links to your characters so I can review what's going on here? This sounds like an edge case, as I can't replicate with any of the Paladins I've created.
I'm having a similar problem with the always prepared oath spells for a 7th level paladin of vengeance taking slots for their spells. The character is unassigned in my campaign (player does not have access to computer currently). Is there a fix for this? Link to character follows.

I'm not seeing an issue with this character. Your amount of spells you have available to prepare should only be 3 based on the stats of this character and his level. You have three prepared in addition to the four spells you gain from your Oath.

Yeah, I just noticed that:

This should be fixed now. Thanks for the report!

Yep, it's fixed. Thanks!
One thing I'm still noticing is that the "Always Prepared" spells are counting toward my prepared spell limit.

I have 5 prepared spells (3 CHA + Level 4 Paladin divided by 2)
I've only selected 3 spells to prepare, and it won't let me select 2 more because the Always Prepared spells are counting toward that limit.

I was mistaken. It doesn't work with Homebrew oaths, and I completely forgot I added a Homebrew oath a couple months back.

Having this issue on this character too. The oath spells not even an option for them to select

Your character is level 2. You don't get Oath spells until level 3 when you choose your oath.

Ah thank you for the clarification. I was looking at the wrong amount of total spells.
My Oath Spells aren’t showing up for some reason for the Inquisitor oath https://www.dndbeyond.com/profile/Hiroshima_of_the_Spectres/characters/18026407
