Hovering nameplate remains after token was deleted

This token was deleted from the library, but the nameplate remains hovering on the map, and I can't select it or remove it. How do I get rid of this?

They are "Phantom Tokens". Tokens that have had their art asset (image) deleted. They used to be invisible and unselectable, but as of the recent token update they became visible. If the phantom tokens are an issue for you you have a number of options: 1) Wait for the Devs to fix it.&nbsp; 2) Send a bug report to the Devs, have them come fix your game.&nbsp; 3) Use the API script (requires Pro account) outlined by KeithCurtis here: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/11061515/using-reporter-and-token-mod-to-fix-some-phantom-token-issues" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/11061515/using-reporter-and-token-mod-to-fix-some-phantom-token-issues</a> 4) I come fix your map using method below 5) Or you can remove them using this method:&nbsp; * Move all the objects on the token layer to either GM or Map layer, whichever has less assets to fix afterwards. (Ctrl+A to select everything, then right click and send them all to another layer) * copy the page, remove the token and objects layer checkmark, hit duplicate * on the copy, move the objects you moved to the GM or Map layer back to the token layer (Ctrl+A to select everything, then right click and send them all to the token layer).&nbsp; * Fix any elements that got moved to the token layer but should have stayed on the GM or Map layer by sending them, one at a time, back to the correct layer.&nbsp; * Delete the original page at your leisure As far as creating Phantom Tokens, until the Devs prevent their creation in the future it is best to delete the tokens before deleting the associated art.&nbsp;
Thanks for the information|!

The devs have instituted some measures that should eliminate most instances of Phantom Tokens. If you still have any left, file a&nbsp; Help Center Request , as they are looking for outliers. Also post here, and I'll see if I can direct any attention to it.
Thank you for the advice, but the phantom nameplate has since dissappeared on its own (or the devs did something, I don't know)

As stated in Keith's post right above yours they did some fixes that should take care of most of the Phantom Tokens.&nbsp;
