Either I'm a fool or the Mixed Ancestory feature is not appearing in character creator. Even if I have critical role and non core content enabled.
This feature is not supported by the character builder, instead you should use the homebrew tools to make a character of mixed ancestry using the rules presented
Is there a possibility for this feature to be supported in the future or will attention given to such a system since One D&D is being worked on? I only ask becuase it would be nice for such a feature to available to those that own this content, rather than each individual going through the process of hombrewing every racial feature for just themselves and content shared. I understand that you can publish homebrew content on DnDBeyond, but I am sceptical and concerned it will get flagged for being to similar to another race, thus not being able to be published.
Thanks for the previous reply, and for the next if you do respond.
You don't have to publish homebrew. Unpublished homebrew can still be used on your character and shared with everyone you are in a campaign with.
Yes, but their point was that it’s incredibly inefficient for every player who wants to use this feature to be individually creating their own unpublished homebrew for what amounts to the exact same published thing.
The main point of the homebrew system is for creating your own character options outside of the published options—or, in some cases, for re-creating a published option if the player does not own the relevant content on this site. And that’s the real kicker: Forcing every player individually “homebrew” an already-published thing even if they do own that content on the site, is not only extremely inefficient; it’s also a darn good reason not to buy content on the site.
When I buy character options from the site, it’s not because I couldn’t set them up myself in private homebrew. It’s that the homebrew system is clunky and if possible I’d prefer to not have to expend that effort. However, I now know that it’s not beyond the pale for there to exist character options that I can’t use without setting them up myself even if I pay for the relevant book—and that torpedos the main reason I usually buy books here instead of any other format.

I have bought the book and it's saying that I own it one the browser but saying that I don't own it on the app. Is that why none of the stuff is working for tal'dori reborn in dndbeyound
The Aid spell is added to the blood life domain spells for some reason. The 2024 version of Aid. So, they are now 11 domain spells for the subclass. The 11th not being of the same edition as the rest.
I did not see this in the thread, But I am attempting to make a Circle of the Blighted druid with the new 2024 info, but the character builder is only showing the core subclasses and the 2 from both XGtE and TCoE.
I have looked and made sure that partnered content is checked, and Critical role is checked, My data is in sync.
Any Ides, or is this going to be lost in the transition?

Partnered content is not integrated with official 2024 content yet. They are working on it, but there is no ETA, so it can potentially take a really long time. If you want to use partnered content, it will only be with official 2014 content.
I have owned this content for a long time and I can see all of the options when I look them up via the magic items/spells lists, etc. But there are absolutely no options to use anything from this sourcebook in the actual character sheets; I cannot equip Magician's Judge to anybody and have to make homebrew copies for them to appear. I have all content turned on for the character, and I can see the content outside of the character sheet, but nothing from this sourcebook appears. It is 2025, the "sync entitlements" thing isn't a thing anymore; that link goes nowhere useful. Please advise.

This. Also, missing are unlabeled versions of some of the city maps--notably Syngorn & Emon.
Exactly this, thank you!
So I want to buy just the subclasses & feats from this book, but when I go to the sourcebook's page, I only get the option to buy the whole book.
And before you point towards the enable Partnered Content filter, I checked & it wasn't there.
(Update: this was prior to A La Carte feature being removed)

Did you purchase the book yourself? If so, is it listed on that same page under Current Product Licenses?
If it’s shared with you instead, is this character assigned to the campaign that’s sharing it?
Do you have “Critical Role” enabled for that character?
