This is very strange, I can still see many of the posts from the community at various URLs, especially from viewing your account page. But the community itself isn’t showing any posts.
Exactly, thanks.
All of our individual post URL’s seem to still be there, but the front-page seems to be weirdly in a “deleted” status.

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! 😠
Right so, 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 ( lemm.ee/u/JohnnyEnzyme) and noticed that the EDIT button, for example:

Which weirdly sits right next to the trash-can icon, for example:

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.
As a quick solution, I threw together a very basic restore functionality on lemmy-ui-next. Can you check if you see a “Restore” button in the sidebar at next.lemm.ee/c/eurographicnovels ? 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.

Since the restore link is not showing for @JohnnyEnzyme@lemm.ee, is there another way to un-delete our beloved community?
