I recently downloaded an island called 'EnekjaerIP', which I have started playing. it is very full of character, and a nice size, with interesting houses and other buildings. I adapted it to suit, putting in rabbit hole rugs for different rabbit holes that didn't seem to be included in the town. On one community lot, which was named as shops, I put a bookstore and a grocery store rabbit hole. I also put in a consignment register and labelled the lot as a consignment store.

After a few days, I wanted to send my sim there to sell her vegetables, but the consignment register had disappeared. So I went into edit town and replaced it. I also put in 2 new rabbit holes, because I couldn't see the ones I put there before.

After a few more days, I again wanted to send my sim there again, and the consignment register had disappeared again. I also couldn't see the rabbit hole rugs either, but there were 2 grocery store map tags and 2 bookstore map tags. And because I couldn't see the rugs, I cannot delete one of each. I have since built a consignment store on another lot, and relabelled the original shops to 'visitors allowed'.

But I am really confused.

Perhaps a seasonal lot marker at play?

I think you are probably right, the rooms are really dark and more lights don't fix the issue. But I cannot find it. What do they look like?

that worked. thanks very much.
