Macros Breaking the Dice Roller

I'm setting up a character sheet for one of my players, and trying to set up macros for her initiative and sidearm attack. The problem is anytime I try to use a macro that includes an attribute my dice roller bugs out. If I have the 3d dice on, then the die just rolls and sits their. It doesn't disappear  and the result doesn't show up in chat. If I turn 3d dice off, then try to use it, then nothing happens. After trying to use one of these macros, all of my dice rolls (even non macro) share the aforementioned problems. This continues until I log out and back in. /r 1d20+@{Base Attack} +@{Strength}  /r 1d20+@{Initiative}  These are the macros that keep bugging things out. Any other macros that don't reference attributes work just fine before I try to use these two, but bug out after. Anyone know what's happening, or how to fix it?

What are the *exact* values for the attributes? Are any of them "+#"? If so, remove the + sign in the attribute. - Gauss
That was it! Thanks.

What was happening: Assume @{test} has a value of +4 /r 1d20+@{test}  /r 1d20++4 The dice roller does not like doubled up signs ( ++ or -- ).  - Gauss
I found this too.  For positive modifiers you not add the + in the attribute.   If the attribute is negative, it will work if you add a - in the attribute.
