Didnt know where to actually put this Gripe I have with roll20.

I have recently tried to start up a new game on here featuring a D&D 5E pokemon campaign, for a whole week now I have been setting up a map and placed everything I needed on the tabletop board, but after finishing inviting people to my game and having them make up characters, all my stuff was invisible ot them, I set up a boat on the ocean heading towards the region we were adventuring to, placed everyones tokens on the field, had stuff written up on Word to keep track of everything. and after my players joined the entire battlefield including the map and characters was completely invisible to everyone but me, I have no idea how this browser program is supposed to work and the crash courses are less than garbage when explaining stuff. I have no idea what I'm doing or why this program is so difficult to use instead of just putting a simple drag and drop system in where everyone can see everything

...which layer did you put the assets on? If you put them on the GM layer, they're only visible to you, and not to the players...

edit - ninjad by scant seconds! It sounds like you might have placed everything on the GM layer - this is invisible to players by design, it's a layer for the GM to keep tokens & notes they need to run the game.

It is also possible that you set up your scene on a new page and didn't put the 'player ribbon' on it so that your players actually loaded into a blank page? Useful links: Layers Pages
