I want to create a community for my local city but when I click the button after entering the name, description, logo, etc. Nothing happens. Do I need to do something first?

Hey! Unfortunately, the errors on community creation are not currently properly displayed in the frontend. What name are you trying to create the community with?

The most common reason for failure is simply the community name already being in use.

Hmm, I did a search for it again upper and lower case and it didn't return a result. I'll keep playing around and see how I get on, thanks!

Just checking - are you definitely trying to create the community with a lowercase name?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Does it already exist on your instance? I think it needs to be lowercase too.
