I got a message saying my community needs approving. Approved by whom?
By you, and nobody else. Nothing has been submitted and there's no queue. We drafted your community's name and description from your answers — read it.

Open it and change anything you like
The screen opens with Here is your community. Change any of it. The name comes with suggestions beside yours — press one to take it. Edit the description, or tell the AI how to rewrite it.

Your community, drafted. Every word of it yours to change.
Take me therePress Save and continue
Press Save and continue, under the description. Your community is set up with those words. That's what the reminder was asking for — it's a proofread, not permission.

Can I check comments before they go up?
Turn on comment approval and every member comment waits for you. It's a separate switch from the one for posts.
Can I message one member privately, and can members message each other?
Message one member from Community, then Members. Their reply comes back to that screen, not your email. Members messaging each other is a separate setting.
Can I read what members post before it goes up?
Yes — one setting. Off, member posts appear at once. On, nothing appears until you've read it. The waiting ones don't sit in the Feed.
