Macros are invalid, but only when used by some players.

Hey, everyone. I'm having an issue where I create a macro such as this; /me casts Smite /roll @{LVL}D5 /desc Holy Damage [-30MP] When I test it, it works fine, but when most other players use it, it doesn't work and shows up as an invalid command. Is this a permissions issue wherein players are not allowed to use certain commands, or is something else going on here? If that is the case am I able to make it so the players have the same command permission as me? Or failing that is there a way to format the text for each command? So instead of the /desc command, it makes it bold or underlined or something.
It's the /desc , and no, there's no (simple) way around it.

Players can't use the desc command.

While players don't have access to /desc (or /as and /emas for future reference), since you're a mentor you could create an API script which formats the output using /direct (a command only available from within the API, used to send raw HTML). If you don't know how to write JavaScript yourself or if you need help with the library functions provided by Roll20, you can ask in the API forum.
Okay, thank you guys :)
