Not sure where to put all this. Its just a lot of misc. stuff.
The pdf for the new Basic Rules does not have the The Life and Death Domains green box section in the previous version that was under Deities of the Forgotten Realms in Appendix B.
I noticed there is no more free Elemental Evil Players Companion document on DnDBeyond anymore. I know the content is still there by race and spell, but it was a nice folder in a sense for all the stuff that was free but not apart of the SRD or Basic Rules.
For the Basic Rules on DnDBeyond in the Fantasy Historical Pantheons subsection, the last line of "are both associated with the sun, for example." is cut off from the other in the description of the Norse Pantheon, from "Frey (of the Vanir) and Odur (of the Aesir)"
The absolute hugest thing for me that I miss from the previous version of the Basic Rules was that the pdf had a great set of bookmarks within the document that is no longer exists. I know it now has a table of contents page, but that does not exist across all pages to quickly go from one to the other.
This thread might be better posted to the Bug & Support forum.
I believe that the thread mostly isn't about the D&D Beyond website - the post is discussing the PDFs that can be downloaded from the Wizards of the Coast website.
You're right for the typo parts Doctor, but I didn't think that bit was big enough to be a topic on its own. If there is a thread for them I'd be happy to put it there instead. Its been like that for a while, despite some attempts from me.
You know that www.dndbeyond.com is not www.wizards.com as they are 2 different companies. Now me as a player that has downloaded the new Basic Rules PDF just to stay up to date does like it.
I know they are separate companies, but I couldn't find any feedback area for me to show them to correct errors like that, so this is basically my indirect attempt to have someone contact them to fix it. Same with all the other things I've listed which are still issues.
Thank you! It was a hard time finding a place to submit a ticket!
That said, a lot of the stuff I talked about was definitely on this website. Could those be fixed too, or given reasons why they were changed, such as the EEPC being taken off? Or the sentence error?

The EEPC has never been available as a separate document on DDB. It's data (races, sub-classes, etc.) are integrated into our "Basic Rules" - which we've compiled as all free data (SRD, Basic Rules, EEPC, Curse of Strahd Character Options).
I mean, I definitely remember seeing EEPC in the index(https://www.dndbeyond.com/compendium/rules), and I don't see its races in the Basic Rules section. I even remember the Deep Gnome lore sections were cut out specifically.
Could the sentence error from the Fantasy Historical Pantheons, The Norse Pantheon subsection be fixed at least?
EEPC is sort of in the app for D&D Beyond. It shows you the character options(i.e. Races, Spells, and the one feat.) The PDF is not and has not been on D&D Beyond's website
It's simply categorization, of showing what is free yet still apart from the basic rules and SRD. Such as the races, lore, and spells. Well, also in this case of showing Deep Gnome lore there that is not free on the website anymore. Obviously I can make due without it, but ease of access is one of the main reasons to use these services instead of physical copies or sites like Roll20. For example, show only basic rules to new players without showing flying aarakocra.
It would be nice one day to combine things in a customized package, like Xanathars and Tome of Foes for building characters in one content box, but that is another topic.
If you go to races it shows you what races are under what book. And if you go to the gnome you can see the subrace deep gnome. You can read everything under the races page. If not that then download the PDF(which is free from WoTC) and read it there on your phone/tablet. Or even download the app official D&D Beyond app and download the books there and you can view the races and rules offline that way.
I mean, I just said I know how to get the info without the website. Its the ease of access and categorization I want from it, which it doesn't have for EEPC. Its done that fairly well for all else though. A lot of these issues, like the sentence typos are fairly small stuff. They've been fairly on point fixing it before. Not sure why not now.

Oh, also forgot, the sentence error is in the PHB too.

Small error. The Basic Rules are divided into 4 parts, not 3, as said here. http://dnd.wizards.com/articles/features/basicrules

D&D Beyond StaffThe EEPC has never been available as a separate document on DDB. It's data (races, sub-classes, etc.) are integrated into our "Basic Rules" - which we've compiled as all free data (SRD, Basic Rules, EEPC, Curse of Strahd Character Options).
I am the Inquisitor Imperitus. I am judge, jury, and executioner. Draw your last breath now, as I send you to the Nine Hells.

I'm not talking about the PDF file itself, just its contents as a grouped set of content, much like the other rule books.
Go to the D&D Beyond app then. Why do you want to see only the EEPC content by itself? I don't get the problem that you are having.
It's simply categorization, of showing what is free yet still apart from the basic rules and SRD. Such as the races, lore, and spells. Well, also in this case of showing Deep Gnome lore there that is not free on the website anymore.
