Universal Checks and Saving Throws Macro ERROR

Hi guys! I'm new to this Forum. Just got a PRO account on Roll20 because I love the API scripts so much. Shoutout to all the awesome scripters out there! So I found the universal checks Macro from Craig and I've been using the ones Kyle had updated. I saved the macros as global macros. The macros worked fine at first but when I had loaded my game again, the query macros that I set up would show this:  These were the macros that I used: Universal Saving Throw Macro Universal Skill Check Macro Universal Ability Checks To add, I had asked one of my players to experiment with me. They tested it out on their side and it worked perfectly fine for them! Looking forward to hearing form you all!
Are you saving these as token actions on macro mule or global macro?
Hi Mark! I'm saving them as a global macro.

Likely the source macros contain html entities (things like | etc). Once saved you shouldn't open them again otherwise the VTT converts those entities to their counterpart (| becomes | for example) which will break the macro. You'll need to copy/paste them again, save and NEVER open that macro ever again... saving them as character abilities will prevent that from happening if it helps.

I was trying to copy the same scripts over to my other games and you were right! The entities did get messed up! Thank you so much. I'll make sure to add that to my notes with regards to this Macro.
