Hello there :)   That is a very odd bug - are you sure that your new characters are actually player characters and that they are not in any other party?

One of my players managed to join the campaign, the other one cannot. The character shows up on the PC page of the campaign and there are no other parties to be a part of in the campaign.   The party picture will also not load. I also have problems with npc images not loading.

By leaving and rejoining the campaign (repeatedly) my players have been able to join the party. However, now they cannot upload a character picture (it will upload but will not show). Also, one of my players is visible in the PC's section of the campaign to me (the DM), is in the party, but will not show up on the campaign homepage, nor in the list of characters to add to a session.

Hey Smiling_ST it sounds iike you are regenerating the access link to the campaign maybe?

  • In terms of the image upload issue we will investigate
  • In terms of the user user not showing up. Any chance they set their character to hidden?

    Image issue seems to be fixed, thx.   The character is public and visible. I now have one that disappeared from the party again. I updated the party crest and the character was removed from the party. It also again does not show up in the list of characters to add to the party.

    Thank you, but I found a work-around. I made characters myself and then assigned them to the players. This seems to have worked.

    This happened to me as well- tried to add a new player, who *was* visible as a part of the campaign, to a pre-existing party, but their name wouldn't show up in the drop down list under party settings. I found someone on r/WorldAnvil who was experiencing the same thing a few months ago and the recommendation was to expel the character and re-invite them; the player had to create a new character, but it did work that time. Unclear why it works sometimes and not others.
