Traits not working on NPC sheets

I'm trying to input new NPC's/monsters using the npc stat block. I use a macro to return the entries. The macro works fine on all the npc's I have previously done and there are hundreds of them. The problem I have is inputting new traits or getting a new NPC sheet to recognise there are traits on it. I have also tried duplicating an npc that does work, but when I overtype the new trait it is returning the info' from the original sheet and not the new info I have put in. I have tried adding a new trait to an existing npc but when I add the macro it doesn't return the trait as a token action even though I have ticked the box to do so. Everything else works fine, it returns attacks, saves, stats, initiative, just not traits. Please can someone look into this?

The sheet was updated Tuesday. This shouldn't affect existing NPCs, but it will affect new drops. On traits, "desc" is now "description". |repeating_npctrait_$0_desc is now |repeating_npctrait_$0_description It shouldn't affect older NPC sheets, but newer ones will only take the new syntax.
@keithcurtis Is this for reactions as well, or only traits?

That is my understanding, yes. Reactions, too.
Hi, Thanks for the message, and the new syntax. It all works fine. Thanks again. Dak
