I have been playing with building subclasses for about a week, and I am attempting to build a Druid Subclass. I want the druid subclass to have circle spells like the circles of land and spores, but i always get this message when I try to add spells: "This homebrew Subclass has data mapped to it that is licensed content or private homebrew. This typically occurs when licensed or private homebrew spells are linked to the Subclass." I have gotten this before when playing with a Bard Subclass, but in that case I was just able to add the spell as an expanded spell list option. Now I want the spells (which are all druid spells aready) to be always prepared, so my previous work-around doesn't work in this case.
Is there a way to give a homebrew subclass spells, like the druid circle spells, in ddb?
Currently having this problem as well, along with i had to give it a 3rd level subclass feature. Thats what this this form said is needed. https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/homebrew-house-rules/23242-creating-subclasses-guide. Only problem is, there is no 3rd level subclass feature for druids. for this issue, i suppose you could make a homebrew feat to do the heavy lifting as well, and just keep that part as homebrew. publishing the subclass with the disclaimer that you need the feat to fully function.
Players aren't allowed to add any spells to Expanded Spell Lists that aren't in the Basic Rules. If the spells you want to add are from the PHB or any other source, you're not allowed to publish the subclass and you never will be. It's unfortunate, since it doesn't respect the actual rules Wizards uses for ESLs and places crippling restrictions on homebrew subclasses for any bade class for which an ESL is standard.
It's important to remember that Wizards of the Coast isn't limited by the OGL/SRD/Basic Rules and as such can put non-SRD spells on the content they release.
However, for homebrew content, the SRD/Basic Rules limitations apply. You can only publish homebrew content containing options from content licensed under the Open Gaming License, as found in the Systems Reference Document, aka Basic Rules.

I would appreciate any guidance!
