Stacking Macros keeps changing

So, I have been using the technique by Cody from Taking 20 to make a stacked macro for dice. When I type it all out at first and tested it, it all seemed to be working. The boxes were in the chat, and clickable. However, I opened it up to change the template to the 5e template, suddenly the macros changed. For instance: I put a d20 command as [d20](!
#d20) like normal. I save it, and click on it, and the macro still works with the box there. However, when I go back to edit it, suddenly the macro changed into [d20](!#d20). I activate the stacked macro itself, and the dice roll automatically with no sign of any clickable box. Am I doing something wrong with the macros?

Did you save it as a macro in the Roll20 macro menu, or as a macro on a sheet in the ability section? If the former, you need to redo the HTML replacements. They revert every time you open the macro. (Note: This is not an issue if you put the macro in the ability section of a sheet.)

I normally put it in the macro menu. what HTML replacements should I use, or which do you recommend?

Full details can be found here , however you will just need to take your 'broken' macro and change all instances of !# back to !
# :) Once you've saved it as a global macro it will continue to work unless you open it up again, because of this it is advised to keep a copy either externally with the html intact or as a character ability which does not parse the html.
