New User Category?

[Angela2013]

This may have been answered but my search-fu isn't working today.

I wish to enter in a bunch of adventures that I have created and have them appear in the Configure Hero box under the heading Adventures. How do I get this new heading (configuration?) to appear?

For the most part this is pretty easy to do and can be done on any Thing in the editor.

1) The bottom most item is "Sources" so click on the blue "Edit" button.


2) Then check mark "- New Source -" and press "OK".


3) The "Add New Source" window appears:

Source Name: This is where you type in the name of the book. Its what you see from the "Configure Your Hero" window.
Source Unique Id: This is the 10 digit unique ID of this new book. Make sure you don't use something that HL would use or you will clash.
Parent Source: By default this is "UserParent" and most of the time this should be left as it puts your stuff on the User Custom content.

4) Press "OK" and then click on "Test Now!" in the upper left corner.

Now that it is created you can have anything you create attached to this source. These Things won't display/show now unless that source is check marked.

Ok I have added things to the UserParent source before and no problem. Now I want to create a new Parent Source called Adventures.

When I added the adventure to the Source Name and Source Unique ID and changed the Parent Source to Adventures (to create the new Parent Source) I got the following error:

Hero Lab was forced to stop compilation after the following errors were detected:

Source 'CrStBeth' - Reference to non-existent parent source 'Adventures'
