Alright, so how does someone do this for the new 2024 versions of spells?
From what I've seen, the new tooltips use the plural term, so instead of [spell], you use [spells] and so forth. I found this out by going into the Homebrew and editing a 2024 subclass

Minor correction: it seems 2024 Actions still use the singlular term [action] rather than plural. Just FYI

Soooooooo...... no way to access 2014 action tooltips yet, apparently??
EDIT: Apparently not. I've tried to summarize the changes myself in the below post.
2024 TOOLTIPS ---------- action - an action taken in combat, ex: dodge, search, ready, utilize, influence condition (*) items - a mundane item, ex: torch, backpack, trident magicitems - a magical item, CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE ex: Bag of Holding, Dust of Disappearance, Demon Armor monsters - a creature you can encounter, ex: CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE (plural term "monsters" references 2014 definitions) monimgs - the image for a specific monster (if it has one) sense (*) (the 2024 versions of senses apparently match their 2014 versions) skill (*) (the 2024 versions of skills apparently match their 2014 versions) spells - a magical spell, ex: Mage Hand, Magic Missile (NOTE: if the spell is not in the 2024 PHB, the spell from the original source displays, as with Abi-Dalzim's Horrid Wilting) wprop - a property or mastery property of a weapon, ex: finesse, heavy, nick, slow vehicles - a specific vehicle, ex: CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE (as vehicles are from Ghosts of Saltmarsh, there are no 2024 versions yet; "vehicles" does not invoke any tooltip) rules - a rule of D&D, ex: falling, heavily obscured, total cover lore - a bit of lore from the Lore Glossary of the 2024 DMG, ex: Tasha, Vlaakith

RodTheBard, I added a link to your post and gave you an acknowledgement in The Homebrewers’ “How-To” FAQ, I hope you don’t mind. Thanks again for posting this, I personally appreciate it.

What's the format for Advantage? None of them seem to work :(
You use "rule". So:
[Rule]Advantage[\rule]
(but with a forward slash instead of a backslash) gives you Advantage.

Oddly, it appears that the 'mundane item' potion of healing, despite existing in the 2024 free rules, still points to 2014 when you use [items].
Fantastic and detailed, thank you
This is exactly what I was looking for, huge thanks!
So I'll have to go through all my home brew and make the tool tips plural now??? Greeeat...
This should also work for the ones where plural isn't working currently

As per RodTheBards post above it uses [wprop]

You end with [/action], not with [action]. This website is a weird combination of html and bbcode.
