I could probably do a screen share at some point if that would help.
I log in, go to "Create Community"
Name and display name are both "exJW"
No icon or banner
Description is a one sentence thing that I change every time I try to create it
Moderator checkbox is unchecked
Languages are English and Undetermined
I'm using FireFox for Android
Try on FF for Windows or Linux, on some instances I have had big problems with FF for android not accepting credentials
Other people have mentioned that using other browsers on android has worked for them, but I personally prefer to stick with what I trust
I did try Chrome on Android. I'll try my desktop later.
Hey, sorry for the slow response, I've been getting a lot of messages and working through them steadily.
I suspect this is your issue - the actual name of a community must be lowercase. In my browser, it does tell me that the name is in a wrong format when I enter "exJW", but it's not super clear what the correct format is. I believe this error error message will need to be improved.
Anyway, I have created the community myself: https://lemm.ee/c/exjw. Please make a post in here and tag my name, I can then pass ownership of the community to you. At that point, you'll be able to set it up however you like!
Thank you so much!
I created the post but I can't figure out how to tag you.
