Custom Compendium

Still +1

It is what would make Roll20 stand out from any competing platform. Please, pretty pretty please do this and figure this out. There is ALWAYS a way. Limited number of custom spells, classes, races, etc. for each DM. Table top is for everyone.

Wow 8 plus years and still nothing give it to us already.

Compendiums can be shared with players. What hinders those players copying everything from the compendium provided (and share it with their players / friends etc.)? This gets problematic if you use official content from books / other copyrighted sources...

This gets problematic if you use official content from books / other copyrighted sources... You can already share official compendiums with other players and you can already manually input official content into your custom games without owning that content on Roll20. Having the ability to create custom compendiums wouldn't let you do anything you can't already do in that regard, it'd just make it more convenient. Without custom compendiums you always need to manually input everything for homebrew systems and content.

+1 This feature would be amazing.

I've been considering switching to a different VTT because roll20 doesn't have this feature, or a work around I could use. I do a lot of homebrew for my games, so any features that streamline using that homebrew are the most important features for a VTT for me.

I definitely want to be able to create my own items that can be added to a compendium. I am running a very long home-made campaign in Roll20 and my campaign has quite a few home brew items. I am struggling to create them and really want something that could be dragged onto the character sheet with clickable abilities and effects.

Actually, it's lack of a custom compendium is what makes it stand out from any competing platform, but not in a good way, because the other 2 major VTTs already offer this, and have for some years. It's also one of the main reasons I run most of my games on a different VTT - because I want and need the custom compendium for those games. So...I'm about to stop my Pro sub, because I have no reason to stay with R20 on a paid sub when all the things it gives me, I can get on the other VTT.

+1.    Come on Roll20 make this happen.

+1. I'm running third party content (that I would happily purchase on Roll20 if you carried it), and playing a homebrew spellcaster with homebrew spells is awful in Roll20.

You will be greatly missed from Roll20 community if you stop PRO and contribute elsewhere. Happy holidays to you and yours. 

+1, for the love of all that is good and fun, please give the people a custom compendium!

I think I put my first +1 in here more than 5 years ago. In that time a few roll20 reps have come in here and said that the problem is the character sheet. Will the new character sheet finally make a custom compendium possible?

+1 with the amount of homebrew content my friends and I have created through the years, it would be awesome to have an easy way to use it rather than manually entering every single time.  Seems like this thread has been around for a solid decade with a crazy amount of support so not sure why it hasn't been done yet.

+1 just do it already, this idea is getting like 10 years old soon!

I'm still waiting...

Pro subscriber since 2014.  +1  for this request.  Make my life as a DM easier, please. 

I posted on this a long time ago. I have a 230 page home-brew guide for my D&D5e campaign setting. Not everything needs to be entered in a custom compendium. We basically just want a collection of templates where we can enter our info so it can be dragable and accessible through the Charactermancer. I've tried everything to figure out easier ways to make my stuff easier to use on Roll20, including a full PDF of the guide book. It is a real pain entering everything fresh on a character each time. I am more interested in this than ever getting the updated D&D books. I don't need them. I need a custom compendium ,but I definitely don't need to make it public in any way.
