Thanks but I think the issue a lot of us are having is that we are all able to see the markers but even at level 3 there are no merchant markers at those three stalls and so it is no lt possible for us to assign settlers to them even with the market objects set to visible.

As we have found though there are simple workarounds for this but most require Place Everywhere

At the moment I am at Level 1 in the city, so no marker is avaible, due to a complete lose of my harddrive and my words that I muttered so many times (Backupop your saves) and forgot to do it myself, lol, I have yet to test, but I may ask someone more knowledgable to see if he can shed some light

They *should* spawn when the regular jobs are filled.
If you're using the Optimized city plan.. I *think* they were removed to cut the population down. (been a minute... so.. might be wrong)

IF you're not using the optimized version, and, they don't spawn as expected.. then.. most likely Sanctuary is overloading the engine. Which is very common there.

As a next to last resort, you can use the Project Blueprint mod found in the City Planners Toolkit to add assignable markers (bluemen) to the stalls.
PBP adds 10K+ items to the build menu.. so I would highly recommend grabbing Faster Workshop, Lag Fix

I'd just like to add that I'm also seeing this problem in Sanctuary. Level 3 city, running the non-optimized city plan with 20 population and ~90 happiness. Settlers have not auto assigned to the shops at any point in the city's development, and when I turn on the blue man markers I see them all over the area, but not located at the shops. I cannot assign anybody to the counters either. I can give version/hardware/mod list information if that would help.
