Did you purchase the DMG from this website? That content is contained within that book so you either need to purchase the book from this website, purchase the magic items section of that book from this website, or be in a campaign with someone who purchased it, and the campaign has to have content sharing enabled.
The sync helped. At least I see some weapons of warning now. Since the DMG actually reads, "Weapon of Warning: Weapon (any)" I would think all weapons would be available or there would be at least be a generic entry (I wanted a battleaxe) but all I see available are the ones below. No big deal though. Thanks for your help, IamSposta.
Crossbow, Light of Warning Dagger of Warning Dart of Warning Longbow of Warning Longsword of Warning Quarterstaff of Warning Rapier of Warning Shortbow of Warning Shortsword of Warning Sling of Warning
Battleaxe of Warning definitely exists, as do "of warning" versions of all of the other weapons.
It looks like you may have the "proficient" box checked when adding magic items, with a character that isn't proficient with battleaxe?
Thanks, Stormknight. That was exactly it. I was accidentally testing with the wrong character - an elf bladesinger - who obviously would not be proficient with battleaxe!
I couldn't get any results either. I did a campaign with my friends and the DM used the random treasure generator, and I got weapon of warning. I searched for it in the add to inventory, but NOTHING came up. There were NO RESULTS!! Its okay though, I just pretended I sold it and traded it for a broom of flying.

Hang on. A Broom of Flying is in the Basic Rules, but the Weapons of Warning are from the Dungeon Master's Guide. If you don't own the DMG or have it shared with you via a campaign, then you won't be able to add it to your character.

Do you have access to that content? It’s not free, so if you don’t have access to the DMG, or at least that magic item (the weapon of warning) from the DMG, then you won’t be able to use it on your characters. Did you purchase the DMG, or at least that magic item? If not, do you have access to it through Content Sharing? If not, that’s why you cannot add it to your character.

How do i add a weapon of warning to a character? I am searching for it under inventory management and it's not showing up
You don’t search “weapon of warning” you search “[weapon] of Warning” like Dagger of Warning, Scimitar of Warning, Club of Warning, or Sling of Warning.

On the character sheet you can’t search for a “weapon of warning,” you have to search for a “[weapon] of warning” like rapier of warning or dagger of warning.

An earlier post had the answer:
Try searching on just "warning".
