Keep getting “URL invalid” when trying to post to promote my new community.

    My understanding is if you don’t have a link, you should be selecting text/discussion post (doesn’t ask for a URL). Not on Lemmy so I can’t confirm that’s correct, but that’s how it works on Piefed.

      I have a link, i didnt show it in the screenshot to show other details. Edit: so seemingly it worked after i made an empty post with title “test”, then edited the post and added the URL.

        They may have blocked URL posts in the community.

        Quick look at the specific community, it seems like the links could only be in the text and not as a URL link, but that could be wrong.

        If that doesn’t work, probably worth reaching out to the community mod.
