My character isn't leveling up?

[HazyOra]

I've been playing Skyrim for a little while now, and for some reason my character has just stopped at level 14.

I haven't done the main quest, I've just been playing around and doing all the side quests. Not to mention I've added mods but nothing that should prevent me from progressing like this.

What do I do to fix this =/

How many different skills are you using on a regular basis? The only way to gain levels is by increasing your skills.

[Palumtra]

You need to level your skills(Destruction, One-Handed, Smithing, etc) to gain levels. Certain quests give progress to some skills, and there are skill books that give you 1 skill level of a certain skill (they are easy to recognize, have unique title and way higher value than "casual" books). Most combat related skills only gain progress when you use them in actual combat with enemies around.
If you find yourself stuck at leveling, try leveling other skills a bit.

It would help us to know your entire modlist and load order just to be sure.

To level you must do things.Fight with a sword will raise your 1 Hand skill use Magic will rise the Skill from witch Magic you use.When you rise let us say 1 Hand by 10 Points you get 1 Level.The Problem is more you are skilled more difficuld it will be to gain a Level.Level 1-10 you can reach in no time as near all Skills need near nothing to level up but more highter your level become more time you will need for the next main Level.With Mods you can make this Level up much faster in Vanilla you must do a lot of time the same thing again and again

Pay a trainer to prove that your character isn't leveling up, first. At that level you need to use other skills like enchanting, alchemy and smithing. You should be soul trapping as you wander around since you need soul gems to enchant items. Recharging enchanted items gives a small boost, too. Using any skill that's still at 15 will give large boosts in XP initially, too.

Watch very carefully if you are doing the trainer. I have encountered an issue on multiple occasions where a skill gets stuck and training will just waste money. To fix it I have to use Console command.

incpcs skill (where skill is the name of the actual skill, not archery is called marksman, I think that is the only one not identical)

So I use Vortex, and as for the list of mods;
- Achievements Mods Enabler SE-AE
- Legacy of the Dragonborn
- SkyUI_5_2_SE
- Legacy of the Dragonborn Patches (Official)
- Address Library for SKSE Plugins - All in one (Special Edition)
- Skyrim Together Reborn

I don't know the exact time I stopped levelling I only realised it wasn't working anymore when I saw my gauge fill but not going to the next level at all.

This worked! I'm still very new to everything Skyrim. And I'm very thankful for all the support given to me, I really appreciate it

If you installed or enabled survival mode then you must sleep in a bed to level up, I also had to look this up lol
