[edit] About Macros

First, there are two places where you can put your macros, in Collection > Macros and in Journal > Character sheet > Attributes & Abilities > Abilities.
The difference between these two is that the first one is for your macros as a player and the second one is intended to keep your specific character's macros. You can save your macros in both, but the first one will need your character's name @{name|skill}, while with the second one you will only need @{skill}.
