Hi,  I just bought the Yawning Portal and I have the set loaded as an Add-On for Tomb of Horrors, but the map I see (I am the GM) has the secret doors and whatnot on it.  Will the players see those?  There are pits clearly in the corridor they enter through, they will see the markings right?  How do I hide that from them?

Probably they are all hidden on the GM layer, but to be sure, you can create an alternate Roll20 account and join your game as a player. That way you will see exactly what a player would see.

It’s because you don’t have a token on it. If you can’t click on those doors and things on the Token or Map layers but can on the GM layer I think you will find they are indeed hidden from the players...

My players only see black now, even after I have reset the fog of war They all have tokens on it  I am using the Tomb of Horrors AS loaded.  The map is on the right layer. the player tokens are on the right layer

That blackness is likely the Dynamic Lighting. You need to enable Has Sight (for Legacy Dynamic Lighting system, recommended) or enable Token Vision (for new Updated Dynamic Lighting, in beta testing, not recommended for an active game as it still has some glitches) on each player token. Enable the LDL on the settings page for each map they are on.

As I said above, you can create a (Free) alternate Roll20 account and join your game as a player. That way you will see exactly what a player would see. When I do this, I open my DM window in Firefox, and the player account in Chrome. Be sure to assign a character sheet to your player account.

Or try clicking on the pits on each layer. If you can select them on the GM layer they will be unseen by the players...
