Please step me through Page Navigator

Can someone walk me through the steps of Page Navigator (or another way to move tokens and players to maps)? I've been trying for 2 weeks now. Player display name is: Oregon Character name is: Ladd Map the tokens start on: Landing Page Map I want the to move to: Church What's the syntax and what do I need set-up? I'm starting to get frustrated with myself.
Case you haven’t seen it : <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/3370217/script-page-navigator/?pagenum=1" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/3370217/script-page-navigator/?pagenum=1</a> I’d like to help more but I don’t use this api and it seems like voodoo to me :)
I had read that. Thank you. I'm really at a loss. I'm following steps from old versions and new, trying to piece them together. I'm sure it's a simple step I'm missing but I just can't get it to go. Although it does appear there might have been bugs that ended the development, but I can't be sure. Can this API being used by anyone right now? And if not, what API are you using to move tokens to other maps?
I don’t use api for that. &nbsp;I usually have my tokens for my players on any map I plan to get to on any given night. &nbsp;If I don’t, I move all their tokens together and then draw a square around them and copy / paste them to the next page.

I use MapChange, from the One Click. It doesn't have quite the power that Page Navigator has, but it gets the job done of moving the players from map to map programatically.
So, you don't move tokens with MapChange? How do you do that? I'm just looking for something that can move players and their tokens from an overland map to a combat map.&nbsp;

Ah, no. Map Change only changes the map, not the tokens. It probably won't do you, then. I generally just copy and paste.
Interesting. I would think teleporting would be a safer, more accurate way to do it, but maybe I'm wrong. I'll stick to copy/pasting for now unless someone else has any insight into getting Page Navigator to work.

Most of what I use Map Change for is to allow players to duck over into campaign maps and back. If they need the name of a business in the campaign city, or need to find out how far away the swamp is.
Does Map Change teleport within a single map?
No, no teleport. It just moves players to a chosen map.

I think Scott C. have said the current version of the Page Navigator might be broken, if this is the one he created.
Right, that's what I'm gathering by reading the threads. What do you use, Andreas?
I've been using the mapTeleporters.js script by FinalFrog. It's very easy to set up but it doesn't switch player view automagically. <a href="https://gist.github.com/finalfrog/124f67ad84204546caf16fffd84115e4" rel="nofollow">https://gist.github.com/finalfrog/124f67ad84204546caf16fffd84115e4</a> Looking at it I noticed it was just updated 10 days ago. I'm using an older version. There is also a version that was modified by The Aaron that I haven't tried yet. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/6195307/script-update-teleport-script-not-one-of-mine-but-ive-made-some-arolltdjustments" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/6195307/script-update-teleport-script-not-one-of-mine-but-ive-made-some-arolltdjustments</a> <a href="https://gist.github.com/shdwjk/350752df3684d859f28611b1d047ad1e" rel="nofollow">https://gist.github.com/shdwjk/350752df3684d859f28611b1d047ad1e</a> I'll have to check out the latest. Not sure what changed.
Ooh! The new version does move the player view to the new map. Although it doesn't move the view to center on the token. I'm also using a macro with find-token to jump the player's view to their token.&nbsp; <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/permalink/8089453/" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/permalink/8089453/</a> I've been trying to modify that script to go directly to token, do not past go, do not collect $200. But haven't figure it out yet.
