Is it possible to link a homebrew to another homebrew? I have a homebrew subclass that has custom summons and when I try to link them in the subclass, I get [Tooltip Not Found]. I type in [ monster]Homebrew Sandskiff Drone - Harrier[/ monster] without the spaces and its not working

Those tooltip tags only work with official content, not homebrew.

If you're wondering why, consider that there are currently fourteen completely different published homebrew spells named "Animate Armor" on D&D Beyond. If you type in [ spells ]Animate Armor[ / spells ], which one should it generate a tooltip for? This is not an insurmountable problem from a technical perspective, but it's also not an easy or cheap one to solve.

How did you do that? [damage type]force[/damage type]?

The tooltip for damage types is [ rule] x damage [/ rule]

Thank you!

 Wait, so what does rule - /rule not work on then? cause if that generally works on damage, what else can it apply to?

 This post has a thorough list of what can be linked to with "rule" vs. "rules":

 Edited my comment to show how it was done.

You can go {anything}Rule Here;name of text to show here{anything}
This way you can display Damage Types as silly billy willy

Damage Types -> {rules}Damage Types{/rules} 2024

Testing Damage Types. You can't link to specific damage types anymore like:

Force -> {rule}Force Damage;Force{/rule}

Acid -> {rule}Acid Damage;Acid{/rule}

Lightning -> {rule}Lightning Damage;Lightning{/rule}

Radiant -> {rule}Radiant Damage;Radiant{/rule}

Psychic -> {rule}Psychic Damage;Psychic{/rule}

Poison -> {rule}Poison Damage;Poison{/rule}

Fire -> {rule}Fire Damage;Fire{/rule}

Thunder -> {rule}Thunder Damage;Thunder{/rule}

Necrotic -> {rule}Necrotic Damage;Necrotic{/rule}

Cold -> {rule}Cold Damage;Cold{/rule}

THE ABOVE is 2014 VERSION!

More 2024 Tests:
Immunity -> {rules}Immunity{/rules}
Resistance -> {rules}Resistance{/rules}
dark vision -> {sense}Darkvision;dark vision{/sense}

Replace all { -> [
Replace all } -> ]

 

 

 This is super helpful. Thank you!!!

I have a look through the code of the website, and eventually found this:
"window.CurseTips['waterdeep-tooltip']" - console logging this shows me it is a class most likely. With the property Options.Paths which is the following array:
[
"spells",
"magic-items",
"monsters",
"characters",
"conditions",
"senses",
"skills",
"actions",
"weapon-properties",
"adventuring-gear",
"armor",
"weapons",
"dicerolls",
"vehicles",
"rules",
"rules-glossary",
"lore-glossary"
]

These appear to be all of the possible tool tips...

Bag of Holding -> {magicitems}Bag of Holding{/magicitems}

Is there a workaround to link the new magic items instead of the legacy ones?
When hovering over Javelin of Lightning ([ magicitem]Javelin of Lightning[ /magicitem])  it shows me the legacy version.

Use [ magicItems ] instead of [ magicItem ].

 Thanks, that worked!

No problem!

Does this still work? I'm entering the following without spaces: 

[ spell]guidance[/ spell]

 It works here but not in the homebrew spell I'm trying to make...
