I am not sure how much of a problem this is, nor am I sure if I've done the right trouble-shooting. I have a game with an opening. The button shows active. I even went to the page, so I could follow up on the listing details. In the past, while browsing through other play groups, I believe that I have seen my own listings. Today, I don't see this listing. I did go browsing again today. I even double checked while using the sorting filter. Still no changes. I have multiple tags attached to it. I believe I have seen past games like this appear through multiple filters. It's helped to build some comfort in the past knowing my games were being seen.  Now that I am looking for a player, I believe the posting is not getting seen. The only thing I could think of doing was disable it, and the relist it again. I am not certain what sort of delay there is, before it should become visible. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

There can be a delay of 2+ hours, it may be best to wait 4 hours to be sure. To help you confirm, I also searched for your game using a couple different search term techniques, and was not able to see your LFG at this time. Wiki Docs about the LFG, <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Looking_for_Group" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Looking_for_Group</a> I noticed you have 3 games listed under Playing, which is fine, but I believe only the first 2 will show your game in those LFG categories. In the case of your screenshot, that game should appear under LFG for Other Games and Savage Worlds, would not appear under LFG Shadowrun (3rd game listed). If you find there is a continuing issue after 4 hours since the time you most recently enabled the LFG listing, please post again and we will troubleshoot this.
Well. Thank you for the help. It had not recovered. I never did see it. The original player recovered his computer, and hopefully he will be reconnecting with the game. This will refill the open slot. As for the listing problem, any ideas what may be the cause of it?

Santa, I do not know of a reason. If you would like to pursue the standard troubleshooting, reply back, and I will provide the steps and you can report a Console Log back that will help the Dev Team to investigate this issue.
Okay. Sounds like a plan.

Here is the guide to troubleshooting steps. Can you please follow Steps 1-3 of our Solving Technical Issues wiki page, taking special care to temporarily disable all browser add-ons and extensions, temporarily pause your anti-virus, and try switching browsers (for Chrome/Firefox specific issues) to see if one of those components is causing the problem. If all of that fails, please follow Step 4 , including providing all of the necessary information, so that we can further assist you. Note: The Dev Team is at Gen Con presently so I think an investigation of this issue will be more likely after the convention.&nbsp;

I had the same problem as you. I see in your attached image that you have enabled Mature Content. The roll 20 dev team has changed how games with mature content will show on the search result with the last update. Now you have to check the box to display games with mature content when you search in LFG. I think that more than half of the games has the mature content enabled, properly a lot of DMs wondering why they do not get any players. I hope this will help :)
Thank you, Sun. That's Fantastic! "Have players make better use of the filters." Cool. I am actually for that. I wish I had picked up on that, because &nbsp;I've gotten complacent with how the site worked. I can live with it being more&nbsp;of a hurdle than an actual problem. Stay Safe, and Happy Gaming!&nbsp;
