Can't Change Global Whisper Rolls

I bought Vecna EoR and like my last purchase, it defaults to whispering NPC rolls.  I don't want that.  I have tried 'Never Whisper Rolls'.  That does not work. In a thread from a couple months ago, a dev recommended using 'Whisper Toggle'.  That worked for the original poster, but does not work for me. Above is a Snip of where I made the change, but the NPCs still whisper rolls. This is very frustrating and has been going on for months. Thanks for any assistance!

Hi Eric C.,  That setting has to be applied in game.  Please go into your game.  Then go to the My Settings tab (top right corner) Then to the Miscellaneous category (at the bottom) Then Apply Default Settings.  Checkmark the desired change.  Click Apply and WAIT for the nearly invisible bar to complete.  Next, check your character(s) settings.  Note: the Apply Default Settings can be twitchy if not outright bugged on some things. If you run into an issue please let me know.

Here are the step-by-step instructions i give in cases like these. See if these help: Note that the whisper settings are attached to each individual sheet, there is no actual game setting. These instructions are for changing the defaults for all the character sheets in the game, then applying the settings to all existing sheets. Note that this will also change your PC sheets - you will have to manually change them to a different setting if one is preferred. Here are the ways to toggle this behavior: Always Whisper Go to the Campaign Settings Page Choose "Always Whisper Rolls" under "WHISPER ROLLS TO GM" in the Default Sheet Settings Save Load your game Go to the settings tab on the right and look under Miscellaneous, where you will find a button that says Apply Default Settings. Press it. Choose to update the Whisper settings. Wait a minute or two for it to resolve. There is a thin easy-to-miss progress bar. Never Whisper There's a bug in the game settings that doesn't recognize "Never Whisper Rolls", possibly because it is trying to write a blank value. The solution is to use Whisper Toggle. The default is public, so once this is set, all rolls should show. Go to the Campaign Settings Page Choose "Whisper Toggle" under "WHISPER ROLLS TO GM" in the Default Sheet Settings Save Load your game Go to the settings tab on the right and look under Miscellaneous, where you will find a button that says Apply Default Settings. Press it. Choose to update the Whisper settings. Wait a minute or two for it to resolve. There is a thin easy-to-miss progress bar. Query Whisper The default is public, so once this is set, all rolls should show by default unless you choose otherwise. Go to the Campaign Settings Page Choose "Query Whisper" under "WHISPER ROLLS TO GM" in the Default Sheet Settings Save Load your game Go to the settings tab on the right and look under Miscellaneous, where you will find a button that says Apply Default Settings. Press it. Choose to update the Whisper settings. Wait a minute or two for it to resolve. There is a thin easy-to-miss progress bar.    7. Have fun!
Thanks!  I didn't do the 'Apply Default Settings' step.  It works as expected now!
