Would it be possible to add a page where you can view code brackets for creating homebrew content? As in making the codes used to link listed spells, like Identify, to their description public for DMs? The spell Identify should instead look like this: Identify
I did make a post in the "Tips and Tactics" thread that I plan to update as I figure these out myself, but it would be easier if everyone had access to these to make it easier for our (the DM's) players.
You know what would be nice? An ignore/blacklist for the forums. There is currently no way to deal with harassment other than reporting it, and that doesn't prevent the harasser from continuing, just removes their posts.
In the Character Builder I would like to be able to restrict to specific source books so you could specify only the PHB and Mythic Odysseys of Theros or Wayfinder's Guide to Eberron, etc.(e.g. PHB+1)

It would be nice to be able to hide the 'equipment' section on a character sheet, so when you send the link to other party members they don't know how much you have
Can we get an option to add or copy character sheets already made into ongoing campaigns rather then make it from scratch?
That is already possible. If the DM sends you the invite link you can choose an existing character to join the campaign with. If you are the DM, just copy that same link and paste it in your address bar and you can join with one of your own characters just like your players.
I will say that there are a couple of things I wish we had as Master Tier, or maybe even Hero Tier, the ability to compartmentalize our own actual characters with the NPCs we create as DMs. In other words, just a better way to organize the plethora of characters that I have created that isn't using Google Drive or some other outside websites. I don't recall if that is something someone has already brought up, so if it has, dismiss this post lol.

Your NPCs should, at least, be under your Creations if not your Collection.

A feature to add and apply Supernatural Gifts and Boons would be useful. Adding them manually as custom feats is well and good for the time being, but it would be nice to be able to access and use the existing content from the DMG, XGtE, and EGtW.
Also, a feature for adding/editing new Fighting Style content would be useful.
Additionally, the Unearthed Arcana should be added as an option to playtest the various versions of different class options, flavors, features, and spells would be very useful so they do don't have to be manually entered by each individual DM as custom content.

The current UA are added as a option, if you turn on the Playtest button when you begin making your character. All of them aren't included because Wizards publishes them, and doesn't want them available for free

They are already working on supernatural gifts and boons.
They already have all of the current UA material except for Class Feature Variants as playable on DDB. On the “home” tab of the character creator, the toggle next to “playtest content” has to be on (red).
I havent played many characters with familiars or animal companions but is there away to add them to your character sheet during creation? If you use the digital creation tool that is.
Trying to get your physical content on Beyond is like going to Microsoft and saying "I have a physical Playstation disk, give me a digital Xbox version!"
Also, a feature for adding/editing new Fighting Style content would be useful.
And for the last question, fighting styles, maneouvers, invocations, infusions, and various other tid bits have been asked for and are on the team's radar.

If you mouse over a user's name, there should be a popup menu, which includes 'Ignore User.'

Ah ok thanks! I was trying the avatar instead. Well, one thing stands from my request: a simpler interface?
Maybe listing 'thanks' as a additional row underneath posts?
