The latest update seems to slow down Firefox when running with ddb against Foundry 0.7.9
It shouldn't be slower, unless you hit a recent bug which would have made the page freeze up completely, if that's what you meant. Either way 2.4.3 was release a few hours later which solved that problem. Try updating again, see if it helps.
You most likely have Monster Rolls set to Whisper GM. Check your settings for that.
Where do I find this setting?
All Monster Rolls from DDB, using Beyond20, are showing up in Roll20 as whispers to the GM and I want them to be public. I cannot find the 'Monster Rolls set to Whisper GM' setting anywhere in DDB or Roll20.
EDIT: Finally found it. For anyone else like me struggling with this, you have to click on the Beyond20 app extension button in the browser and then select 'Beyond20 options'.
I dont know if its beyond 20 or dndbeyond itself making some changes, but the dice quick click button, when clicked, doesnt roll; i have to click the roll button on the bottom left again.

I noticed that as well today. Is that due to the plug-in update or a D&D Beyond Update? I'm kind of thinking maybe D&D Beyond because of the Game Log maybe trying to allow for players to roll privately when needed.

yeah, there was a D&D Beyond update today to add the targetted rolls to the game log, which broke rolling with Beyond20 with digital dice enabled. Currently working on fixing that so I can have my 3rd bugfix release in 3 days! lol
But is there a way to disable the popup that shows the dice roll result? We don't always play with Roll20 and its rather annoying. I am not quite sure what the purpose of that dialog is other then forcing the user to do another click. Or its a left over from before D&D Beyond added their own dice rolling features.
I actually love your script and am glad you kept supporting it until mine (most of my features have been adopted by Beyond.) So keep up the great work. I just wanted to ask if it was possible to hide that dialog before I wrote my own fix
Hi! I think there was a recent change to either roll20 or Beyond20. I am a DM for one game, and play a character on another game. On either game, I can roll for monsters and the rolls will translate through to roll20 seamlessly, as they have always done. But suddenly, starting last week, the rolls I perform on my character sheet do not show up on beyond20, nor do they show up on roll20. My character setup seems OK. Am I supposed to do some kind of refresh?
As an aside, if I bring up my character in beyond20 before getting into the roll20 game, it announces that the character has no VTT link. Fine. When I bring up my character after having launched the appropriate roll20 game, it does not display that message. So it seems to be recognizing the link at some level.
I'm having a similar issue. Also the Quick Rolls area doesn't seem to be working. When I click on the "dice" in the quick roll area the set of dice on the left side of DnD Beyond pops up and prompts me to roll and even that is a wonky.

Hi mouse0270!
It's not a dumb question, see https://github.com/kakaroto/Beyond20/issues/632! Thanks again btw for your toolbox and for having such a nice options menu. I still had no idea how to do any html back when I started, so it saved me from having a horrible UI :P Your code still lives on in Beyond20 to this day :)
Yes, the popup was from before the digital dice existed, but it's not useless, the digital dice rolls that Beyond20 does is only the dice, rolled as custom dice with no modifier, so if you do for example an attack, it's 1d20 + 5, and you have a 1d8 + 3 piercing damage, and 2d6 sneak attack, and a 1d6 Hex damage and + 2 cause you're also raging.. so the digital dice notification from D&D Beyond will actually only do "1d20 + 1d8 + 3d6" and you get the total of those dice as a single result. Beyond20 will modify that result to show the first formula (1d20 + 5) but you won't see the break down of the damages. You'd actually only see "3 rolls sent to VTT" because that's all that could fit in the D&D Beyond notification. You'd also lose the notification if there was a "reroll 1s" (GWF) that happened, or if it was a critical hit that then rolled crits.
The Beyond20 dialog that pops up will have all those details for you of your actual roll. Of course, it's less useful if all you're doing is a skill check using a normal roll, but it will still appear in all cases. Note that you can click anywhere to dismiss it, so it shouldn't be too much of a hassle. The only option to hide the dialog that exists is if you're also sending the rolls to Discord and are whispering.

Are you using digital dice? There was an update 2 days ago to the D&D Beyond character sheet that broke rolling with digital dice. There's a planned release for today with the fix.
Thank you for all the kind words. I was lucky enough that Beyond has actually incorporated a large portion of my plugin into there site. Initiative tracker, Dice Rolling and Encounter tracker. So its been nice to just have to basically run your plugin. Which we really actually only use because Beyond doesn't seem to take into account thinks like Rouges Reliable Talent or The Silver Tongue feature from the Bard Sub class. Where your extension fixes that.
I might sit down and do a pull request for a different variation of that popup. I get your point for things like your example its great, but for most other basic rolls is just extra work put onto the user.
Once again, this isn't me saying anything negative or anything like that, I am just being picky and wanted to verify before I tried to do a pull request is all. I love your work. I can't wait until Beyond starts to incorporate your features as well! (They did add a way to do (dis)advantage with a right click. Though I prefer your hotkey version.)

Thanks! And yeah, I understand. I think it would make sense to hide if there is only a single roll 🤔That could be an option, though I try to limit the number of options to add to avoid having an unusable list of 300 options, lol.
I think though that it might make sense to do a "if no VTT is found, and digital dice was used, clear the digital dice notifications before showing the result" this way the notification in the corner would never appear if you're just rolling locally, and only the Beyond20 notification would. That would make sense to me as a default behavior, I'm more worried about the other way around (hiding the Beyond20 notification for single rolls) because it would be an inconsistent behavior and only justifiable through an option and there's already too many options, which is why I hesitate 🤔
File an issue on github, and let me know what you think, we can continue brainstorming this over github if needed.
As a new user of D&D Beyond, I have a question whether it is possible to integrate the iOS / Android application with Roll20? Integration with chrome works great, but I only have one monitor and it would be much more convenient for me to use the character card on the tablet but show rolls on Roll20.

The beyond20 extension works by sharing information between two tabs in the same web browser. It has no way of communicating outside of that single web browser.
Of note, and I do not know if this was ever stated, but I use two different instances of Chrome on my laptop with multiple screens. And, even though my DDB and Roll20 are in different “windows”, Beyond20 can carry the rolls to Roll20 without problems.
However, pressing the Shift for Advantage does not always kick in the first few times I “use” it during an evening play

Two windows in chrome are still within the same process, it's just a visual thing. It wouldn't have worked between a chrome tab and a firefox tab for example (it's been asked before).
As to the tablet situation, you can't make it work on iOS because of Apple's strict restrictions on what they want their users to do with the product they purchased. However, you can install a browser which supports extensions on an Android tablet (Kiwi browser I think) and have both d&d beyond and roll20 open in that browser, you'd just need to roll from DDB into the other Roll20 tab that remains in the background, and you'd use your desktop logged into the same roll20 game. That's a slightly complex but usable system that people do sometimes when they need to.

I'm very new to both DnDB and Roll20, only played a 5E one-shot with it so far (the rest of my short DnD experience being a few sessions of a PF game with some discord friends). I'm curious (and apologetically too lazy to dig through all 28 pages to see if this has already been asked) as to whether the functionality you mention here works across two PCs.
I.e. can I have the Roll20 campaign open on my HTPC on the TV in front of me with DnDB and Roll20 open in the same browser together on my Surface tablet beside me and do the rolls on the Surface but see the actions happening on the HTPC? Or am I misunderstanding how that would apply?
It did work superbly the one time I've tried it so far and I think it's a brilliant utility, so thanks very much for your hard work on it as well.

If I'm understanding your question right, no that would not work directly BUT in practice it might be fine.
Just to clarify, if you are using DDB and Roll20 with Beyond20 on one computer, then that will not be integrated at all with a separate PC. However, (except for secret whispered rolls) all rolls appear in the Roll20 chat, and so I suggest just creating a second Roll20 player account and logging in to Roll20 with that on the HTPC. You can still see the map, the chat with rolls, etc. It's just like another player watching the game but not actually doing anything.
I do something similar with my set up not to have it on the TV (although that's a fun idea!) but to record our game sessions since we thought it would be fun to be able to watch them again years from now. But as GM, I don't necessarily want all the secret stuff recorded since at least one player watches them between sessions, as well. So my set up is:
Computer 1 logged into Roll20 as "Ken" as well as DDB with Beyond20 integrating them.
Computer 2 logged into Roll20 as "RecordingPlayer" to just watch and record the game.
Except for secret stuff, Computer 2 sees the full game - map, rolls, chat, etc. So that sort of set-up could work in your situation if my explanation makes any sense, of course. :)
You might be able to get away with logging into Roll20 with the same account on separate computers, but I have never tried it, so I have no idea if it is buggy or not. It was easier for me to just create an extra Roll20 player account that only watches the game. Also, some times I do need to toggle over to Computer 2 to adjust the zoom or re-position the map, but overall it works great!
