# Use communities as room filters
|
||
|
|
||
|
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 can only be created for yourself or for others (if you invite them into a community) and create a superordinate structure for rooms. For example, for a semester group/study group or for a chair team etc.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Existing rooms can be 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 can be used to describe the community.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Unfortunately it is currently not possible to add more administrators through the matrix client: [https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/issues/5240](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, then clicking on the room to be removed and then clicking on "Remove from community".
|
||
|
|
||
|
A community can be 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) If you need more administrators in a community, they can be added by the Matrix Admin Team. Please send a support request to servicedesk@tu-dresden.de.
