Hi Torment! Which character sheet are you using? Each sheet has a different appearance and behavior. A screenshot would also be helpful to those familiar with the sheet.
the 5e SRD (i think it is called). Here is a screenshot of the red boxes. Any new item in the list get a red box (maybe there is a max number of items on the inventory list?). and then these phantom items pop up (like the last one in the sheet).

Well something definitely looks odd there. The checkboxes are orange, for example. What platform are you running Roll20 on, and are you using any extensions that might interfere with normal behavior? Running in a private browsing window can rule out most of these. Also, not sure what "Favored Foe" is doing in Equipment. It's a ranger class feature (as hinted at in the righthand side of the screenshot) How are you adding items to inventory?
Hello I am on my Mac, in Firefox Browser. No extensions running. I tried to run it in a private browsing window, the red boxes persist. I had just taken a ranger level, and had the favored foe option chosen. I wanted to add it as a tracked resource, however, the phantom items started popping up, so I thought maybe the resources were trying to add a line into my inventory. So then I made the favoured foe an item to see if it did anything. It didn't. I just add an item using the little + button at the bottom of the inventory list. So far, no real impact on game play, expcet some of my custom items have stopped communicating with the sheet (eg one item gives me +2 survival, and it stopped showing up in my skills, had to add that in manually).

The red boxes indicate something is wrong with the repeating row. I can't remember the exact criteria, but it's not something you should see much off if you're using the sheet normally. They generally pop up when a script has done an incomplete job of deleting a row, or done a bad job of adding one. Are you in a Pro game using API? It seems like something is deleting random attributes from rows. If it's not API or someone with access to the sheet playing around with Dev Tools, I'm not sure how it's happening. I've also never seen orange checkboxes - not sure where that's coming from.
well, my character died, so i guess the problem resolved itself *cries*. Not pro users or using APIs. Will have to be a mystery for the ages. thanks for responding!

@Oosh I had this recently come up while working on a new sheet where I had multiple nested getSectionId's for multiple repeating sections.  The event/routine seemed to work fine with two, but once I added a 3rd, the 2nd getSectionId loop generated the Redbox on that repeating section.  I just assumed it was a lack of js skill on my part, put each routine in its own event and the red boxes never came back after deleting them.
