You need to set offlinehidebydefault to false and spawnbedhidebydefault

[AnrDaemon]

How's that related to sign markers?

[Cubox]

Sorry, thought you meant beds and offline people.

You mean signs with [dynmap] on them?

[AnrDaemon]

I mean signs that dynmap is supposed to recognize as markers.

[Cubox]

When you place the sign, does the [dynmap] tag becomes invisible?
If you add for example an icon: pin, that line should also become invisible

[AnrDaemon]

No, it doesn't. All documentation I've googled points to some "permission" that simply does not exist on Forge servers.

[Cubox]

I don't know a thing about forge servers, but there is one permission needed, that is granted to OPs by default.
If you are not op, or cannot be, you can edit the .jar (unzip it and rezip it) of the plugin, going into plugin.yml
find this

  dynmap.marker.sign:
    description: Allows creation of markers using signs
    default: op

change the default: op to default: true

This will make anyone able to create markers using signs, but if after the modification it works, this means the problem was indeed permission based

[AnrDaemon]

There's no such file.

[AnrDaemon]

And even ops can't place sign markers.

[Cubox]

Alright, the plugin.yml thing only is for spigot/craftbukkit.

There is a file in the jar, which I assume is copied into the plugin/dynmap directory.
permissions.yml.example

Content is :

# Sample permissions.yml for dynmap - trivial, flat-file based permissions for dynmap features
# To use, copy this file to dynmap/permissions.yml, and edit appropriate.  File is YAML format.
#
# All operators have full permissions to all functions.
# All users receive the permissions under the 'defaultuser' section
# Specific users can be given more permissions by defining a section with their name containing their permisssions
#   All permissions correspond to those documented here (https://github.com/webbukkit/dynmap/wiki/Permissions), but
#  do NOT have the 'dynmap.' prefix when used here (e.g. 'dynmap.fullrender' permission is just 'fullrender' here).
#
defaultuser:
  - render
  - show.self
  - hide.self
  - sendtoweb
  - stats
  - marker.list
  - marker.listsets
  - marker.icons
  - webregister
  - webchat
  #- marker.sign

#playername1:
#  - fullrender
#  - cancelrender
#  - radiusrender

Try to rename this file into permissions.yml (remove the .example part), and uncomment the -marker.sign lign.
Then reboot server and try placing a sign.

I don't know at all forge servers so I'm trying blindy here, tell me if there is any error anywhere.

[AnrDaemon]

Tried that, did not get any visible effect.

[Cubox]

I don't know then. I'll let a plugin dev help you

[AnrDaemon]

With nearly 700 open issues? I _highly_ doubt he's visiting this site at all.

[Cubox]

Well, he's doing it for free, on his free time.
Anyways I hope you will find a fix for your issue
