HELP - D&D 5th Edition by Roll20 Barbarian Unarmored Defense problem

Edit -- I was planning to post this in the pinned D&D 5th Edition by Roll20 thread that's been running for 5 years but it apparently was closed (to my surprise) since no one had posted for over 2 months. One of my players runs a barbarian with the Unarmored Defense class option.  This causes the AC calculation to be 10 + Dex bonus (2) + Con bonus (3) = 15. (Number in parentheses are the actual bonuses for this character.)  However, recently he got a Barrier Tattoo (Rare) that grants you an Armor Class of 15 + your Dexterity modifier (maximum of +2) = 16 Per the 5e rules you cannot stack these two calculations. When I activate the Barrier Tattoo in the item list on the character sheet, it calculates the AC as 31 because it is starting at the 15 as calculated using the Unarmored Defense class option and then adding the result of the Barrier Tattoo (Rare) calculation to this resulting in an AC of 31 (which really makes the player happy but...) I've removed the Unarmored Defense class option from his sheet but that doesn't remove the Unarmored Defense class option AC calculation. Short of rebuilding his sheet for this 13th level barbarian, is there a way can I fix this?

Hi Stik,  Which character sheet are you using? 
I was editing my post when you replied. I'm using D&D 5th Edition by Roll20.

Stik said: I was editing my post when you replied. I'm using D&D 5th Edition by Roll20. Unfortunately there is no sheet by that name. They keep changing the name on us. So to be completely clear: are you using the D&D 5e (Classic) sheet by Roll20 or the D&D Fifth Edition (5E & 5.5E) by Roll20? Edit: n/m based on your edit I see it is the Classic sheet.  Edit the item. Replace "Wondrous Item" with "Light Armor" (without quotes). 
BTW, any idea why the pinned D&D 5th Edition by Roll20 thread was closed?  I only started a new thread because I found it closed.

D&D 5e (Classic) sheet by Roll20 Sorry for the confusion, I copied the name  D&D  5e sheet by Roll20 from the now closed pinned thread of the same name. Will there be a new pinned thread under the D&D 5e (Classic) sheet by Roll20 name for future questions about this sheet?
Didn't mean to start a back and forth. My player's Barbarian Unarmored Defense "glitch" is what I mean to focus on.  As with your previous help, any ideas will be very appreciated.

I answered it upthread, must have gotten missed in the cross-posting.  Edit the item. Replace "Wondrous Item" with "Light Armor" (without quotes).  The problem is that Wondrous Item is not an armor class calculation, it is a bonus. Light Armor trigger the proper calculations. Edit: correction, use Medium Armor. Sorry. Forgot that this tattoo caps at Medium Armor levels of Dexterity.
Thanks, Gauss.  This fixed my issue. You da man!!
