Hi, I am using SRD 5E with the latest community pack, When I put a feat that increases a stat it shows up 2 stats, I think it is just for Strength, how can I remove this so it just puts the total?

That is normal HL behavior. Its showing you your original ability score slash the new ability score. You can see all your skills and weapons will treat your ability score as 16 but its letting you know that your base score is 15.

But your base score isn't 15, it's 16, due to the feat. So yeah, it's a weird behaviour to have in the core program. If it was a temporary addition then I could see a reason for such a separation, but it's not temporary, it's a permanent adjustment.

If that is really the base value the feats "could" be adjusted to reflect that on the ability score Picks. I am not sure how much of a priority that is sense the final value of 16 is used for all the calculations.

I wouldn't call it a priority but it is annoying since it shows up on the printed character sheet. And it absolutely is different from Pathfinder. In 5e, you actually don't get feats in the base system. They're called Ability Score Improvements. If you use feats as an optional rule, then some feats have a +1 while giving a smaller benefit than feats that don't do that. But it's still an Ability Score Improvement and thus a permanent ability score improvement, not just a feat-buff.
