So, the accessory is added on the accessory page, setup correctly... I can turn it on and off from inside homebridge. When I go to add manually into homebridge, even with a child bridge, its not showing as "nearby"... Ive tried everything, but it wont work.

Just follow the instructions here and it should appear https://github.com/merdok/homebridge-webos-tv?tab=readme-ov-file#adding-the-tv-to-the-home-app

Already tried that. Also tried a child bridge as well. My base LG TV will show up, but that’s it. Under the child bridge, it dosnt show any accessories tired to to, just the bridge itself.

The tv needs to be added in the home app manually as per instructions. It will not appear automatically. Maybe you missed a step in the guide?

Exact same problem here. Controls appear on Homebridge and work as expected, the bridge shows up on HomeKit, but no accessories linked to it.

The TV will not appear automatically, you have to add it manually. Please see:

I uninstalled the plugin and installed it again, this time I didn't enable child bridge option.
My TV showed up on step 4 and it's working perfectly.
Thanks!!
