Just got a mail from DMsG telling me they are pulling all extensions for sale out
WOTC is evidently making DMsG take out all extensions for sale in DMsG. Just received a mail about it after I posted my new extensions and it went live for 10 minutes - 3 sales - then POW - deactivated with a mail telling me no more extensions for sale at DMsG.
Evidently smiteworks only has a license to sell .mod files not .ext files there.
From DMsG:
Unfortunately your title has been deactivated as Wizards of the Coast is cracking down on us for allowing the publishing of extensions for Fantasy Grounds.
The only Fantasy Grounds content WotC is allowing DMsGuild to publish is Modules (.mod files).
We are currently in the process of pulling titles that are selling extensions for Fantasy Grounds but that process can take a while so I also have to catch titles that are newly published as well.
Apologies for the inconvenience.
The partnership that Smiteworks has with Wizards of the Coast only covers Modules for Fantasy Grounds and not extensions.
We have to do what Wizards of the Coast asks of us regarding content on DMsGuild.Last edited by SilentRuin; November 30th, 2020 at 20:13.

Ouch but it sounds like a good opportunity for SW to step in make some coin, solve the problem for people on DMsG, and help with the issue of keeping extensions up to date all at once.
Could really turn a bad thing into a win for everyone.

Extensions = risk to your gaming experience. If you haven't tested out the extensions in your campaign before your gaming session, turn them off. If you don't backup your campaigns regularly, you're doing it wrong.

Speaking of, are they no longer available to download from your library?

I'm sure these type of things will just move some place else. Wait for the dust to settle - as far as I know I'm the ONLY one effected by this policy so far as I just posted a new extension hours ago. My old ones were still out there last I looked. Matter of time according to DMsG though.

If you've already purchased an extension on the DMsGuild, you should still be able to access it from your Library - but new sales will not be permitted. However, this is all uncharted territory with no prior warning from WotC or Smiteworks, so no one really knows for sure.
