Regarding the playbook editor, it looks like its more complicated and time consuming than I want to get into. I download the files you posted, however, in case I get bored, I will experiment. Great work by the way. I love the RPO plays you created. Madden has nothing like them, stock. Your plays are really great.

Thanks man, but it's extremely simple to do. Just open it up in PBE 1.2, select playbook audibles for offense then pick your play. Here's some screenshots:

1. Select playbook audibles, then one of your offensive audible slots.

2. Select whatever play on the pop up window, then save.

Taking a break from building PBAI to focus on modding NFL Head Coach and hopefully get these playbooks into that game, I'll be working on importing practice uniforms here in a minute. There are 14 2023 playbooks listed on the OP until then, if there's any issues with them let me know.

Why do the playbooks you created contain duplicate plays - meaning, there may be 1 play, listed 3 times? Why can't I remove the duplicates and post other plays to the book in the Madden game editor?

They aren't duplicate plays they are just repeated in the play selection screen. It has something to do with the amount of plays in a formation.

Is there a way to delete the duplicate pictured plays so that I can add another play in place of the duplicate?

No can't delete the play, but you can create a new play into that formation to get rid of one of the duplicates that way.

Is it possible to select an existing play and insert it in place of the duplicate?

Can your Playbooks be used in on-line games? I have noticed that custom playbooks do not appear to be available for selection in on-line games. I am wondering if it is a product of how the books are created or if EA designed Madden to only allow the stock books to be used in on-line games.

Yes, but each player would need to have the playbook added as a stock playbook and in the same playbook slot file within the dat.

Swap it with whatever playbook you don't care for in DFR, save it and then send that modified GAMEDATA file to whoever you're playing with. The files have to match up for online play or the game will crash.
