5E Help with opening NPCs from a list

[Griogre]

In the Monsters of the Multiverse module, when you open the module and click NPCs it opens a list of monsters called NPCs. If you click on an NPC on the list it opens the npc (shown in the first picture).

I want to build something similar in the 5E ruleset but the only example I can find is from the basic rules and they open a collapsible list not one long list like MotM.

I put together an XML test module, but while I can get it to do a list of monsters the links don't work. I either messed up the syntax, am using the wrong refclass, both or ?

Any help would be appreciated. I've attached the pictures with MotM how I want it to work, what I have and the module.

The current db.xml code is:

The 3.5E monsters has an example of the simple list like the one that is exported by default when exporting record types.

If you export a record type to a module, then a simple list is created by default in the exported module. If the record type has "views" defined by the ruleset and those views are allowed to export (such as NPCs - By Letter), it outputs a slightly different variation. Try exporting a couple modules to see the output; or better yet, just use the built-in export.

   <library>
    <d20monsters static="true">
      ...
      <entries>
       ...  
       <npcs>
          <librarylink type="windowreference">
            <class>reference_list</class>
            <recordname>list.npcs</recordname>
          </librarylink>
          <name type="string">NPCs</name>
        </npcs>
      </entries>
    </d20monsters>
  </library>
  ...
  <list static="true">
	<npcs>
		<recordtype type="string">npc</recordtype>
	</npcs>
  </list>
