Hello! I have two homebrew subclasses that each grant an additional sense at a certain level-- first one is darkvision of 60 ft., second is blindsight of 10ft.-- but neither sense is displayed on my testing character sheets. I've attached screenshots to show that I have the senses set up in the homebrew editor, and screenshots of the respective character sheets with missing senses. I thought it was odd that two separate homebrews would have the same issue, so either I'm doing something wrong or there's an issue with display of senses from homebrew subclasses. Any help would be appreciated!
I refer you to the Homebrew FAQ linked in my signature in blue.
But its important to note that homebrew can take some time to update on the character sheet (15-20 minutes) and it s important to make sure you save every step of the homebrew as you do it. Even if you hit save to add the trait within the feature, you also need to save at the main subclass page as well. Save at every step and all the time.
Yup, I always save and am always patient with my subclasses updating. These are two subclasses I've worked on for a few months and everything else has eventually updated, but never the Senses. Hence why I posted this, as it seems to be a specific issue with the Senses not updating and nothing else with the two subclasses.

Thank you for the tip on image embedding, I was messing around with it but couldn't figure it out! I tried using Set Base instead of Sense and still the same thing, the part where Darkvision and Blindsight should appear are just blank.

I'm having similar issues, and 6B's solution isn't working. I'm trying to add Truesight to a subclass, but it's been over an hour, and it's not appearing in the Senses box. I've used Set Base, waited, and created a new character/removed and re-added the subclass.
Any suggestions?

I tested it myself, and Set Base should work, you just need to [Save Changes] and give enough time for the changes to show up on the sheet.
