What's next?
You've created your community, set up channels, and invited your first members. Here's what to explore next.
Connect with Root
Join the official Root community to get help from the team, share feedback, and connect with other community owners. Official Root communities display a verification badge next to their name.
Help people find you
Once your community has reached level 4 and meets the other listing requirements, such as having 10 members and being 7 days old, the owner can list it in Community Discovery, Root's public directory, so anyone can find and join it without an invite.
- Community Discovery: See the listing requirements and turn listing on
Set up roles and permissions
Control what members can do by creating roles and assigning permissions. You can create roles for moderators, trusted members, or any group that needs specific abilities.
- Roles and permissions overview: Learn how roles, permissions, and channel visibility work together
- Manage roles: Create, edit, and assign roles
Keep your community safe
Use moderation tools to manage disruptive members and track activity.
- Kick or ban members: Remove members who violate your rules
- Action log: See who made changes and when
- Require email verification: Restrict your community to verified users
