Getting Started

Hey guys I wonder if someone could help me with something. I've been trying to get into learning to mod, so I figured I'd jump in with a little mod that just makes a ring to summon a death shepherd. I gave him a couple of extra spells just to try that out as well. The only thing that's throwing me off is every time I load it into the Mod Manager, it boots the game up perfectly fine, but all of my mods have been disabled, and my mod is nowhere to be found. If I close the game and open the Mod Manager back up, it's been moved to the inactive side.

I will say I'm still very much learning and not sure what I'm doing at this point. I've been using a combination of the startup guides and having Gemini help me fill in the gaps where I'm not sure what to do next. I'm certain something the chat bot has had me insert is what's causing the issues. Any help would be appreciated. I don't believe this counts as AI generated content, but if it does, I apologize and I'll delete the post.

Thank you!
