Wat is prikbord.page?

Hier komt een tekst over wat prikbord.page is

Voor wie is prikbord.page?

Prikbord.page is er voor Rotterdamse organisaties en initiatieven die graag onafhankelijker van Instagram willen worden.

Denk aan:

  • Kunstinitiatief
  • Klein podium
  • Debathuis
  • Reparatiecafé

Hoe werkt prikbord.page?

Zijn er prikborden voor andere steden?

Op dit moment nog niet! Wel is dat mogelijk. prikbord.page is volledig open-source gebouwd. Als je in je eigen stad voor een server zorgt en wat technische mensen die jullie prikbord onderhouden, heb je het zo voor elkaar. Mail ons eens voor vragen.

Door wie is prikbord.page gemaakt?

De realisatie van prikbord.page werd mogelijk gemaakt door de financiële bijdrage van het Stimuleringsfonds Creatieve Industrie (regeling Grounding the Cloud).

So you wanna be on prikbord.page?

Great! Welcome! In order to get your venue shown on prikbord, we'll need to do 2 things. 1) get some information about your venue and 2) get your events automagically trough the sources you already use. Prikbord.page intergrates with a bunch of sources, so we'll need to figure out what works best for your setup.

Part 1: get some information about your venue

Every venue get's a page on prikbord. An example of this is https://prikbord.page/venues/zip-8/. You'll need to provide the following pieces information:

  • The name of the location
  • A description of your location
  • The address and geo location
  • A picture of your fridge (3/4 ratio)
  • A description of your accessibility efforts and or limimtations
  • Information of a person we could contact directly
  • A public email adress (not required)
  • A public website (not required)

Either send in this information via prikbord@riseup.org, or whomever you've been in contact with at prikbord.

Part 2: get your events automagically trough the sources you already use

WARNING: please speak to us to get help setting things up.

I publish my events via a wordpress website

You need to install 2 Wordpress plugins first. Your wordpress website then learns how to publish to the fediverse and our backend can import your events. In the ActivityPub plugin settings under "Blog Profile" you can set your "Profile ID". If you share this address with us, we can import your events, e.g. @mycoolspace@example.com.

I publish my events via Radar Squat

We support importing events from any Rotterdam-based Radar group. Here is a listing of all event that are being published in Rotterdam right now: radar.squat.net/en/events/city/Rotterdam. If you already have a group, please contact us and we will import it. If you want to create a group, please read the documentation, it is free to create and post your events.

I publish my events via Icalendar

We can import any standard Icalendar format. We do this already for Varia. An example of an ideally formated iCalendar feed is:

BEGIN:VEVENT
UID:3421557834
SUMMARY:Futile Data. Cold War Current: Kunstenaarspresentatie met Francis Hunger
DESCRIPTION:Francis’ praktijk combineert artistiek onderzoek, mediateorie en vertelkunst via installaties, video-essays, hoorspelen en performances. Momenteel doceert hij Emergent Digital Media aan de Academie voor Beeldende Kunsten in München en is hij mede-redacteur van Carrier-Bag.net.

DTSTAMP:20250912T000000Z
DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Amsterdam:20250912T190000Z
DTEND;TZID=Europe/Amsterdam:20250912T210000Z
LOCATION:Gouwstraat 3\, 3082 BA\, Rotterdam
URL:https://test.varia.zone/2025/futile-data-artist-talk-25/
LAST-MODIFIED:20250727T112540Z
END:VEVENT

Some important fields that may not be in your standard Ical feed which we need:

  • IMAGE: the event image
  • UID: a unique identifier for the event
  • LAST-MODIFIED: the last time the event was updated

I publish my events via Gancio

If you already run Gancio, we can federate and include your events also. We are testing this with calendar.klank.school at the moment. Enable federation via gancio in your admin settings > Federation. You can add prikbord via the "add federated source" We are @relay@backend.prikbord.page. If you send us an email with your federatation URL, we can follow you back (r&r=back style)

I publish my events via a RSS Feed

We don't support it yet but it's easy to do, so let us know! We will add it. Ideally, you would include the following also:

  • Title, description, start/end time, etc. (the basics)
  • An event image
  • A "last modified" field, so we know if the event was updated

I publish my events via Stager

In that case, we can make use of the so called "Push Feed API". Every time you change your events on Stager, a message will be sent to prikbord with information regarding your events. To get this working:

  1. Within stager, set up a so called "custom publication channel". The URL of this needs to be https://backend.prikbord.page/api/plugin/prikbord/ping/{youruniquename}

  2. Communicate with someone from prikbord about: a) what {youruniquename} is b) what the secret is stager has given you after setting up the publication channel

  3. Change your Publication settings in stager to enable the new custom publication channel. If the work is completed on prikbord's side from step 2, your events should be synced to prikbord every night.

I use none of the above

Send an email to prikbord@riseup.org or talk to your local prikker, so we can figure something out.
