Hey, indeed it appears that the community was somehow removed by you:
Notice it says "Deleted by creator" .
Can you check in the top right corner, in the area visible in my screenshot, is there not a small "Restore" link? This should in theory let you un-delete the community.
Yes, "DELETED BY CREATOR" was the very first thing I noticed! 😠
But yes, I looked around the upper-right, but didn't see much of anything like a "Restore" link. Now I did try pressing the "Joined" button, and now it looks like this:
Ugh, so now I've made the whole situation somehow worse?
Oh, but check this out-- I have a "homepage" community under my same ID ( https://lemm.ee/u/JohnnyEnzyme) and I notice that the EDIT button:
...sits weirdly right next to the trash-can icon:
So... I guess probably I touched the one whereas I meant the other??
Thing is-- such a thing was almost *inevitable* as someone who tried to keep updating our site documents (resources and FAQ).
Aha, I think this restore feature is missing from the standard Lemmy UI.
Maybe this will help: I quickly implemented a very basic restore button on lemmy-ui-next. Can you check if you see a "Restore" button in the sidebar at https://next.lemm.ee/c/eurographicnovels? Note that you must be logged in as a moderator to see this button.
I need to step away from my computer for a while, but if this doesn't work, then I will be able to look into it further during the weekend.
This is a community for discussion about this particular Lemmy instance.
