How to display hidden map markers to players?

New DM here. We are playing through Lost Mine of Phandelver v2 and all of the locations within the Sword Coast map are grayed out/hidden from my players. Does anyone know how I can reveal this permanently so my players don't have to guess where they are? Picture attached just shows the grayed out areas on the map. Thanks!

And I figured it out right after I posted this! The map markers were just on the GM layer. Moved them over to Map & Background and they are now visible.

They are on your GM layer. Many GMs don't want the labels displayed, so Roll20 hides them by default. To make them visible, just got to the GM layer, select them, right click, bring to front, send to map layer. (The bring to front should keep them from going to the map layer below the map).
Thanks! I thought they would be on the map layer so I went in circles for a bit trying to figure it out. lol I only wanted a few things hidden and the players are pretty far in so they knew most of the locations anyway.
