Seeing a list of attributes
_token.actor.data.data
If you wish to see the list of @attributes you can utilize, open console (F12) and type _token.actor.data.data (token should be selected). You will see a list of options you can reference in a dot notation. For example, if you wish to reference the stealth modifier, it would be: @skills.ste.mod.
The top level attributes you can access with the @ symbol are: @abilities, @attributes, @bonuses, @currency, @details, @resources, @skills, @spells, @traits.

Obsolete Modules
Some good modules that are now obsolete (integrated) - which is good!
Actually Private Rolls
OBSOLETED BY V10? - note: the private rolls are now hidden, but not chat messages
Actually Private Rolls - Hides GM Rolls
- https://foundryvtt.com/packages/actually-private-rolls
- https://github.com/syl3r86/Actually-Private-Rolls
Award XP
OBSOLETED BY Monk's Token Bar
Easily award experience points to your players. This module allows you to give out experience points to the group. The XP will divided equally between the players and automatically added to the character sheets. A chat message will inform the players how much experience they received. Additionally, if a character gained enough experience to reach the next level this will be anounced in the chat.
The button to award experience to the players can be found at the bottom of the actors panel.
Beyond20 companion module - OBSOLETE
DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE NEEDED, WHY INSTALL IT??
Beyond20 companion module - helps with beyond20 rolls
Beyond20 is a browser extension that seamlessly integrates D&D Beyond with Foundry VTT.
This module allows the Beyond20 rolls to display properly in the main FVTT window and for other players who do not have the Beyond20 browser extension installed.
Perfect Vision - OBSOLETE
OBSOLETE WITH V10
Darkvision rules for Dungeons & Dragons 3.5e/5e, Pathfinder 1e/2e, and other systems, as well as other lighting/vision features and improvements.
Pings
BUILT INTO V10
Pings - allows pinging on the map
Adds the ability to ping on the map to highlight points of interest. Default is Left Click to ping, Shift + Left Click to move everyone's screen to your ping.

T is for Target
BUILT INTO V9? CERTAINLY V10
A simple module that allows players to target tokens without left clicking. This can speed things up a lot, especially for DMs utilizing combat automation. Hover over a token and press T to target it.

Special Content Available - Michael Ghelfi Audio Pack-
Hello @everyone, I am thrilled to share that the first "Special Content Pack" for Foundry Virtual Tabletop is available with a wonderful module of environmental ambience and music provided by Michael Ghelfi https://www.youtube.com/user/MichaelGhelfi.
All Foundry Virtual Tabletop license owners may install this module (available in the Module browser) which provides 13 wonderful seamless looping environmental ambiences ranging from Desert to Medieval City and more, as well as 4 beautiful musical scores which can provide background music for your Scenes. By installing and activating the module you will have access to two compendium packs of audio content which you can import into your Worlds to use. I definitely encourage everyone to check out this module and use these wonderful audio assets in your Foundry games.
You can find this content pack and others (not yet, but soon) on the Foundry VTT website under the "Exclusive Content" section of the Systems and Modules menu: https://foundryvtt.com/packages/exclusive. Thank you to Michael for making these wonderful audio assets available to Foundry Virtual Tabletop users!
If you like Michael's work, I encourage you to further support him by visiting his Bandcamp page, https://michaelghelfi.bandcamp.com/, where you can purchase hundreds of additional songs and ambiences using a special promotion code which is available inside the Foundry VTT application once you install the Module.

Macros
Show Journal
game.journal.getName("Name of Journal Entry").sheet.render(true)
ref: [7]
Doesn't work?:
JournalEntry.collection.getName("your_journal_entrys_name").show()
ref [8]
-
My version:
a = game.journal.getName("Room1"); a.update({permission:{default:2}}); a.show();
There is a delay issue where it doesn't work on the first hit though? Maybe needs a callback first?
Show Actor Sheet
game.actors.getName(character.name).sheet.render(true);
game.actors.getName('Celestyca').sheet.render(true);
Opens Character sheet for current token or controlled actor:
game.toggleCharacterSheet()

Secrets
GM Notes is about the only good option.
GM Notes - https://github.com/bithir/gm-notes
Inline secrets looked like a good option, but it is too easy for players to reveal
Inline Secrets - https://github.com/jsavko/inline-secrets
- has issues, too easy for players to reveal!
Show Secrets - https://github.com/kaelad02/show-secrets
- GM can show built in "secret blocks" to players in chat, when needed - useful

Edit details and at the bottom add this:

It will add a &tlcode> inside the pre, but that doesn't break anything.
