I'm making a custom spell for a homebrew feat for one of my players and I would like the dc for the spell save to be 10+CON, but all I can find for the spell save is choosing the ability. Is there a way to manually update the spell save DC that I'm not seeing?
No. However, when you attach the spell to the feat you can designate Con as the spellcasting ability and it will calculate the save DC as 8+Con mod + PB. That’s the whole point of a “Spellcasting Ability,” it designated the spell save DC.

It's 8. Which means that at first level, it's effectively 10+the Con modifier; it just goes up faster than that as you level.
What? What’s 8? The DC? Is their Constitution 6 to have a -2 modifier? I don’t think I understand you. Could you please elaborate?

Sorry; save dc base is 8, not 10, so the official calculation gets OP close to what they wanted.
Spell save DCs are just calculated as 8+Abil mod+PB. That’s just the way the game is designed, so that’s the way the website is run.
