Issue with Macros in a Player's Character sheet

Hi guys, I'm having some issues with the macros on a&nbsp;player's character sheet. Whenever a skill, attack, save, spell, or literally any macro on the character sheet, it returns a syntax error that looks like this: <a href="https://imgur.com/a/LLnXLvC" rel="nofollow">https://imgur.com/a/LLnXLvC</a> Only one character sheet has this problem, all other sheets work just as intended. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? Thanks, Darren
Oh, and we've also tried making a brand new sheet with Charactermancer and there were no edits to the macros of any kind. The problem persists.

It might require someone to come into your game and tinker around to find the problem. Out of curiosity, what is the character's name? Does it contain any odd punctuation? Try renaming to something simple like "Bob" and see if the problem persists.
Note the 'turn order item' part of the error message... this has something to do with the error, I'm guessing. For example, a token unassigned to a character sheet returns this message for me: (Hey, that worked great, thanks for the tip keithcurtis!) Darren S, could you provide a copy of the macro itself? That would help a lot.

Hi, thanks for replying. Thanks to the suggestion of&nbsp;KeithCurtis, I've found the issue. Changing the name to "Bob Smith" did actually resolve the problem, so thanks! I'm curious as to why the name is an issue though. This character's name on the sheet is simply "Tracker". Does this conflict with the syntax somehow? Thanks again for all the help.

I think "Tracker" is a reserved keyword for the Turn Tracker. See the last paragraph of the Adding Turns section of the wiki: <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Turn_Tracker#Adding_Turns" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Turn_Tracker#Adding_Turns</a> You can see the macro syntax for automatically adding Initiative rolls to the Turn Tracker is adding &amp;{tracker} to the end of the roll.

I suspected that might be an issue, since it was working for all other character sheets. Since it's a reserved word, I'd suggest something like "Trakker".
