Use communities as room filters
*** Please understand, that we could not offer the feature of communities in Matrix yet. ***
All matrix users of the client element (and a few other clients) can use communities to filter different rooms, which may be lost or scattered in the room list on the left.
Communities are only created for yourself or for others (when invited into a community) and create a superordinate structure for rooms. For example, a semester group/study group or for a chair team etc.
An existing room is assigned to a community in the community settings (under #).
A community created with the + button can be drag’n’dropped from the community avatar (little picture) onto the sidebar.
A small HTML page is used to describe the community.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to add more administrators through the Matrix client at the moment: https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/issues/5240
Removing rooms from communities is done by clicking on the hash # in the upper right corner. Click on the room to remove and then click on “Remove from community”.
A community is deleted when the administrator leaves it.
other administrators
Currently, no more administrators can be added to a community via Element. Issue on Github](https://github.com/vector-im/riot-web/issues/5240) When more administrators in a community are needed, they are added by the Matrix Admin Team. Please send a support request to sd.h-da.de.
