Content missing after recent update

Hello! I have been playing Sims 4 for over 5 years and have purchased a large amount of expansion packs/add ons. I recently logged in after not playing for awhile, and had to update the game. I also purchased 2 new stuff packs, and when I open the game now, some of the content from my other packs is missing. It’s not entire packs, as some build mode items from a certain pack are there, but other items from the same pack are not. I have tried repairing the game, restarting my computer, and clearing the cache to the EA app, and nothing helps. All of my add ons show as installed. 


please help! Thank you in advance!!

    A lot of people have the same issue; it seems the latest update has caused a lot of items from build mode to vanish. There's a thread over at EA Answers: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Clutter-items-not-showing-up-in-Build-Buy/m-p/14393957#M311140

    Someone on the German Sims Discord has found this workaround: use the cheat bb.showliveeditobjects, then search for "debug". According to this user, it should show most of the objects that have disappeared. Alternatively, searching for an object by name seems to work as well. I hope EA fixes this soon.
