As the title says, ever since the 2024 rules hit, i cannot access 2014 rules when i'm making characters. I have legacy and 2014 rules checked in the first page, but when i go to select subclasses for the barbarian for instance, the only subclasses i have acces to are berserker, wild magic, ancestral guardian, battlerager, beast, and storm herald. Where did totem and giant go? Where did the rest of the options go? I have all the player books and i could access them previously, but now they've just vanished.
This character is also in a campaign, does this have something to do with the DM's rules for the campaign?
Sounds like this might be a content-sharing thing. Content sharing is campaign specific. When you say you had access to the other subclasses before was that for characters in a different campaign? Or did your current DM's subscription possibly run out, ending the content-sharing?
Most likely cause is you've selected a 2024 Barbarian in character creation rather than the 2014 version. On the class selection screen they've basically doubled everything up with the 2024 versions at the top (which can only use the 2024 compatible subclasses, Totem was replaced with Path of the Wild Heart) and the 2014 versions (which can use the subclasses you're probably looking for) at the bottom so try scrolling a bit further down and seeing if you
I personally own all the books, and even attempting to make a barbarian character now outside of a campaign with legacy/2014 selected, it still doesnt give me any of the 2014 subclass options. So even outside of campaign character creation im having this issue, and i dont even own any of the 2024 rulebooks
Even if you don't own the 2024 books you'll still get access to the 2024 classes and one subclass each because of the free rules so you'd still have the problem I mentioned above of having chosen the wrong version of the class. If that's not it then go to your account and make sure your access rights are all synced (if they are already you won't see any option to do this) and if it still doesn't work I'm afraid it'll be trying DDB's very slow customer service

The thing I think you're missing is that there's no switch for "2014 rules". The 2024 builder options from the free rules are always there. The "2014 core" and "legacy" toggles make the older stuff available. You still have to choose it. If you choose the first barbarian class listed, that's the 24 barb, and it can only use the 24 versions of subclasses that got updated, even if you don't own them.
If you want 14 subclasses that were revised, you must pick the legacy barbarian class.
I don't have any of the Warlock subclass options for Patrons available aside from Fiends... There is no options for the Great Old Ones or even the Archfey. Whats going on here?
Are you trying to create a 2014 Warlock or the 2024 version? Which ever version it is you'll need to own the books with the GOO and Archfey patron for that version (the 2014 PHB or 2024 PHB respectively) or have them shared with you. If you're trying to use content shared you'll need to create the character in the campaign where it is shared, if you don't all you'll have access to is the free content which is the Fiend

I already answered you in another thread where you asked this same thing so I'll copy it here.
For the Patron Subclass under Warlock, the only Patron available is the Fiend. Where are the options for the "Great Old Ones" or the "Archfey" Patrons which are missing currently!
Only Fiend is free. To see the others you need to have purchased the PHB or be making/editing the character inside a campaign where the book is being shared with you. You also need to ensure you are using the correct version of Warlock (when adding class, the Warlock under Core Rules is the 2024 version while the Warlock under 2014 Core Rules is the 2014 version).

This is a signature. It was a simple signature. But it has been upgraded.

as stated above, make sure you are selecting the 2014 barbarian if you want ot use the 2014 subclasses
