Question about roll queries and modifiers

Hi there ! I tried to find the answer for this, I'm pretty new with all this, but I was able to get a good beginner grasp on how Roll20 works with his html. But I'm in a pinch right now. One of my player would like to be able to enter a free-text query, which I'll do using ?{Number|} and then [[?{Number}d4!+@{attributes}]] But it should be inside another query that'll list every skills his character have, so I don't really get how to make it functionnal. It works when I do it alone tho Here's what it looks like right now : /em launch ?{Skill| Data Link, Data Link on ?{Who ?|   Player1, Player1 ! |   Player2, Player2 ! |   Player3, Player3 ! } | Virus Exploit, an Explosion of ?{Virus|  } Virus for [[?{Virus}d4!+@{Magic}]] !  } It seems to ask for how many, but then, whenever I try to make the calcul process, it cant. I'm fully aware that the problems lie here :    [[?{Virus}d4!+@{Magic}]] But even if I try to write it like that : [[?{Virus}d4!+@{Magic}]] it doesn't work.. Sorry if it's dumb, but it's been bugging me for a day and I can't seem to find the answer on my own. Thanks for your time !

If this: [[?{Virus}d4!+@{Magic}]] is nested within a query you'll only need to escape the } of the Virus query: [[?{Virus}d4!+@{Magic}]] The problem you'll have is that if the result of the original ?{Virus} query is text you won't get the option to then define a number for the roll so you'll either need to have the query be a number based result or two queries (FYI: I defaulted the Virus Dice to 1): Virus Exploit, an Explosion of ?{Virus|  } Virus for [[?{Virus Dice|1}d4!+@{Magic}]] !  Side note: when you are wanting a query with a blank input box (free-text) you don't need to do ?{Query|}, simply running ?{Query} will give the same result with less html when nested ;)

It's kind of hard when you know nothing haha. Thanks again for answering :)

Happy to help, this stuff can get pretty complex, pretty quickly! Enjoy :)
