ChrisWebbTech no, no private channels. This is a Team that has been used for a long time as a template to copy channels and tabs etc. I dont know why it stopped working. I have created a new one but was curious if anyone knows why it would stop appearing in the list of sites to choose from.

I had exactly the same problem. What I discovered is that the menu of Teams you see only relates to one of the 4 types of Team available. I wanted to duplicate a Class, but during set up clicked on "Other" type, so that's why I could only see Teams of the "Other" type.
There is no mention of this at all on the MS help page:

which I would have thought was in urgent need of correction.
