I don’t believe we’ve ever provided the option to create a place from the projects edit form. Is that what you were expecting to see? I’m still a little unclear what you’re experiencing or expecting. Can you associate an existing place with your project? If so then I don’t think there is a problem with the projects edit form. If you’re looking to create a new place you’ll need to create it at https://www.inaturalist.org/places/new, and once created you should be able to associate it with your project.
