Just as the title says, when I try to click on the "create" button (after filling in all the details for the community) it spins for a half a second and then nothing happens. Any ideas?

Community name is probably invalid. Make sure it:

  • is all lowercase

  • has no spaces

  • is twenty characters or fewer

You can change the way it looks with display name later to add spaces, capitalization, extra words, even emojis.

This I know. This is not the first community I've created on my instance.

Oh wait I'm an idiot it was more than 20 characters.
