How do I add an activity to the calendar?

Through the Hoplr neighbourhood network, you can quickly reach many neighbours to invite them to a community activity or involve them in its organisation. (Register on Hoplr)

A neighbourhood calendar strengthens the community by informing residents about local events and activities. It promotes social cohesion and makes it easier for neighbours to meet. Join in and help contribute to a lively and connected neighbourhood!

Organise activities and notify your neighbours

Via the website:

  1. Open the calendar by clicking on ‘Calendar’ at the very top of the website.

  2. Click on 'Start a new activity'.

  3. Select the category that fits your activity.

  4. Do you already have a date? Select a start and end date (both must be in the future). If you don’t have concrete plans yet, you can leave the date open to gauge interest and availability from your neighbours.

  5. Give your activity a title.

  6. Describe your activity in line with Hoplr’s house rules.

  7. Optionally, add an image or another file (e.g., a programme guide or other documents).

  8. Optionally, add a location and a price (if you want to add a price, leave out the currency symbol).

  9. Visibility: If this option is checked, your activity will also be visible in the neighbourhood calendars of surrounding areas. If you only want to share your activity with your own neighbourhood, you can uncheck this option.

  10. Click on 'Post'.


Via the app:

  1. Tap on ‘More’ at the bottom right, then select 'Calendar' in the menu.

  2. Tap 'Start a neighbourhood activity'.

  3. Choose the category that fits your activity.

  4. Do you already have a date? Select a start and end date (both must be in the future). If you don’t have concrete plans yet, you can leave the date open to gauge interest and availability from your neighbours.

  5. Give your activity a title.

  6. Describe your activity in line with Hoplr’s house rules.

  7. Optionally, add photos (.png, .jpeg, maximum 5 photos) and a location.

  8. Visibility: If this option is checked, your activity will also be visible in the neighbourhood calendars of surrounding areas. If you only want to share your activity with your own neighbourhood, you can uncheck this option.

  9. Click 'Post activity'.

Your activity will automatically appear in the calendar. Read more about the neighbourhood calendar here.

 


How and where is my activity visible?

If you mark an activity as "visible" outside your neighbourhood, it will appear in the Calendar of surrounding neighbourhoods and will also show up in the neighbourhood feed of people who follow your neighbourhood.

Would you like followers of your neighbourhood to also receive an email or push notification about it? They will need to set this up themselves. You can find more information here.

Note: People who do not follow your neighbourhood will not see the activity in their neighbourhood feed and will not receive notifications. However, they can still find the activity in the Calendar if they filter by distance.
