  2. Fill in the required Add New Community form fields: Name, Description and Tags (a comma delimited list), and the properties (see below);
  3. Click on the Create Community button.

Delete Community

The first time you click on the "X" button and confirm that you wish to delete the community the system removes all of the users from the community and suspends the community. To delete all shares, sources, and documents within a community you must click on the "X" button a second time. (See the Social - Community - Remove documentation for more information.)
