Just made a new campaign to test the NPC Import for 2014 5E, and when using the example given here: https://www.fantasygroundsacademy.com/post/mastering-dnd5e-npc-statblocks-a-community-guide-for-publishers-homebrew-dms-conversions-devs

I get an error and you can see the <p> tags in the titles of features of the NPC.

It's best to show what you are trying to import. From that error there is a html element in the the text and it can't parse.

The importer is designed to import text blocks; so won't handle HTML codes.

Hey there! The link in my original post was where I was getting what I was copy/pasting in, I've put it here below - but to recreate I was copying from the website into

Brawler. Grondar has advantage on attacks made with unarmed strikes.




Relentless Endurance. Grondar can drop to 1 hit point instead of 0 and still be conscious.




Savage Attacks. When Grondar scores a critical hit, they can roll one of the weapon's damage dice one additional time and add it to the extra damage of the critical hit.




Half-Orc Resilience. Grondar has proficiency in saving throws against being frightened.




Actions


Club. Melee Weapon Attack +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d8 +3) bludgeoning damage.




Brawler's Strike. As a bonus action, Grondar can make an unarmed strike, which deals 1d4 +3 bludgeoning damage.


I was talking to superteddy (I think?) on discord and suggested to copy/paste into a field, then copied over to the importer afterwards, I was still getting the issue.

Here is a video of me importing the stat sheet above, I show that there is no HTML.

As I mentioned on Discord you need to lose all of the blank lines and any traits or features with no text (such as the Multiattack, Spellcasting and the Innate Spellcasting shown in your post). Once you get rid of all of that and use the Monsters of the Multiverse option in the dropdown it will import without error.
