meant in the same area of equipment as silvered, etc
Stuff like silvered can be added to existing weapons so they are added directly on the character sheet. Weapon Properties like light cannot. Adding/removing weapon properties is what the homebrewer is for. It will be more convenient when they finally let us homebrew non-magical items.
Without having to sift through all of the requests and comments, I've heard little evidence that DDB has any plans for adding a campaign manager to the software suite. While you have the ability to write notes for both the DM and the players in each separate campaign, it's definitely not robust enough to seriously manage everything that most DMs want or need. I'm trying to avoid having to use any more sites or additional software than I already do, which is a bunch. I watch Adam every week on Thursdays and I don't believe this has come up in the last few months.
campaign management is coming, its in the pipeline as we speak, but its not coming out soon. so i'd say its in their mid term planning stage. basically they are redoing the entirety of the campaign management page. so keep it together, its eventually coming our way. though they have given us no clue as to what that entails, they simply said "campaign management overhaul is pending" thats all they said about it. but consider this... they are working on campaign management right now as dice, encounter builder, initiative tracker and monster leveler are all part of their campaign management overhaul. so yeah, its already int he pipeline. when is the campaign management page gonna change, probably at the end of all that.
all that said, small changes are something easy to do, so if you gonna ask something, don't ask something too big. like before we had only text boxes with no formatting and all. we asked them to at least change them to rich text box and they did in a matter of days. so yeah, in a way we got what we wanted, formatting was a must have so ilike the idea of being at least able to format the thing. as is, i don't think we can ask them for more then that though.

Can you pleeease introduce a way to search for content to buy? I had this problem numerous times where I wanted to play a subclass and could not figure out which book I had to purchase. I could be so very easy! You could even link the content in the rule section! I don't get it! Why doesn't this already exist since the very first hour? Do you want to sell your content or do you want to hide it away?
p.s.: can someone tell me where I can get the rogue scout subclass? edit: it's in xanathars guide to everything, I just clicked through all the source books and it was the very last on the page
I wonder if ‘light’ could be added to weapon customizations? It impacts the ability to use weapons offhand and so would help if specialty weapons could be customized in that way

A good rule of thumb is to check Xanathar’s right after the PHB. Most subclasses are in those two books. After that you will find the rest in Campaign Settings like Sword Coast or Theros.

You do raise an interesting point, however. I wonder if DnDBeyond would sell more a la carte subclasses if there was a way to browse store content by class? Sure people can google it, but there is something to be said about making it easy for the customer.
I usually buy whole sourcebooks, but I had to google what source book the circle of spores druid was in to find it. I have no desire to have the rest of the Ravnica book, but I was happy to be able to get that class. I might even be prone to get more a la carte content like that if it was presented to me in a different way.
Would it be possible for there to be an ammo tracker? Like the ki or lay on hand point trackers where as you use ammo you could subtract how much you use.

I think they mean to have it auto tick down when an attack is made. But that won’t account for special/magic/custom ammunition.

Yeah. Like when you equip your ammo a tracker on the attack page where when you use a weapon that requires ammo you could tick it down and it would remove it from your inventory and when you got to 0 it would unequip your weapon. Then you could hit something that would add half back because you can only get half of your ammo back when you search the battle area
Then you could hit something that would add half back because you can only get half of your ammo back when you search the battle area
I house rule that they can get it all back if I haven’t specifically narrated that the ammo broke. So I personally would not appreciate that function. It would be fine as long as there were a toggle for it though, that way you could have it turned on and my players could have it turned off and we can all get what we want! 🤗
I would love it if there were just a wee bit of granularity to managing that posts I see from people I subscribe to. I would love to be able to subscribe to some folks without seeing their “forum games” posts. I want the news, not the crosswords if you catch my drift.

i don't even count ammo, i only count special ammo ! i mean, wizards do not need to buy every component they need everytimes they go to town... why would rangers be forced to do so ? component pouch are always filled in as they get into town even if they don't lose any gold for it. its counted in the way of life expense. so its easy to add those ammo for weapons into that as well.
anyway its not like players cannot buy 2000 arrows and put them in bag of holdings... i mean thats what Vex'halia did in critical role and at the end of the 5 year long campaign, she had shot about 1500 arrows and had still about 500 left in the bag.

It would be nice if the "reaction" tab on char sheet included "use readied action" - my new players have been really confused about this, no matter how much i try to explain, because they rely on the action tabs to see what they can do each time.

Good idea. In the meantime you can add it yourself as a custom action on each of their character sheets as a reminder.
Could we get something put in place for when a character used polymorph or wild shape , so we can use the digital dice to roll for those attacks while in a beast form? For example: If as a druid I use my wild shape to turn into a sabre-tooth tiger, I would pick wild shape on the sheet, a drop down menu pops out to pick the beast, and my sheet would turn to the beast stats, I then can do all of the beast rolls from there until I exit wild shape. Same could be in a status effect of a character is polymorphed.
You can attach those animals to the character sheet under Extras and they are working on a way to let us roll directly there without needing to transform half of the character sheet.

Yeah, I usually throw an encounter with enemies who use bows at them early if for no other reason than to stock them up on about 100 arrows.

How bout the ability to "favorite" your characters, and have a sorting option that puts your faves at the top.
