Meetable: Updates for Virtual Events

    "content": {
        "text": "Meetable is the software that runs events.indieweb.org and a couple other event sites that I host. Over the last couple months, we've had to cancel a bunch of IndieWeb events or convert them to virtual events, and I've been watching for patterns to see if there was anything the software could do to facilitate this.\nToday I just launched a few new features that will help out event organizers posting events on Meetable websites! I decided on adding these features by looking for things people were already doing by editing the event names or descriptions.\nEvent Status\nEvents now have a \"status\", which can be \"confirmed\" (the default), \"postponed\", \"tentative\", or \"cancelled\". Anything other than \"confirmed\" will show a little badge next to the event name calling out the event status.\u00a0\nThis badge also appears on the event pages themselves. For postponed events, the date now says \"TBD\" in addition to the originally scheduled date.\nThis status can be set when you create the event initially, or edited later. This is useful for cases such as a regular weekly meeting that skips a week when you want to make sure attendees know that the event is actually cancelled and you didn't just forget to post it. Thanks to Tantek for that suggestion!\nThis status is included in the ICS feed as well, so you should see those statuses in your calendar app if you've subscribed to the ICS feeds.\nCancelled events also hide the RSVP button and stop accepting webmentions.\n\"Postponed\" isn't one of the statuses in the iCal spec, but it's come up enough times that I thought it was worth adding anyway. I'm also not 100% sold on the icons and colors I chose for these, so suggestions are welcome. Please only suggest icons from the font-awesome collection though otherwise it's a lot more work.\nVirtual Meeting URLs\nNow that all of our events have been happening online, we need a place to share the link to join the online meeting. This isn't the same as the event website field that currently exists, since that's more for when you add an event that exists elsewhere like a related conference. Instead, this is specifically a link that you will click just before (or during) the event to join the online meeting, whether that's Zoom, Jitsi, Google Hangouts, or something else.\u00a0\nOne of the patterns that's emerged from doing this manually is that people will update the event description to say \"come back 15 minutes before the events starts to find the meeting link\". This is for two reasons. Some platforms don't give you a meeting link until you start the meeting, and if the meeting link is persistent, then you don't want to share it too far in advance otherwise you might attract the zoombombers.\nI added a new field to Meetable's event creation UI specifically to add the meeting URL. Meetable will hide the URL until 15 minutes before the event starts, and it will disappear again after the event is over.\nBefore the event starts, you'll see a note that the meeting link will be revealed 15 minutes before the event.\nOnce the event is less than 15 minutes away, the event page shows the join link.\nThis works regardless of what meeting platform you're using since all it's doing is conditionally showing a URL!\nBuilt-In Zoom Scheduling\nWe give IndieWeb event organizers the option of using a shared IndieWeb Zoom account to host meetings. (Event organizers are always welcome to use whatever platform they choose, but we make this available thanks to our community sponsors in case organizers want to use it.)\u00a0\nSince Zoom has skyrocketed in popularity as well has had some pretty major issues around zoombombing when being used for public events like this, it's become a lot more important to use unique meeting IDs and passwords for each event, whereas before we could get away with the lazy approach of using the permanent meeting ID on the account. This has lead to a lot more manual work by organizers when planning an event to go an log in and create a scheduled meeting. So I added a feature to Meetable which will use the Zoom API to automatically create a scheduled meeting at the right time for the event, and set the meeting URL to the zoom link!\nNow when you create a virtual event in Meetable, you have a checkbox you can check which will go create a scheduled Zoom meeting for you!\nThen 15 minutes before the event starts, the link will be shown on the page! As the organizer, you can log in to the Zoom account and you'll see the scheduled event in the Zoom app.\u00a0\nSince Zoom includes the password in the link itself, it's still one click to join the meeting this way!\nThat's about it! I hope you enjoy the new features, and let me know if you're using Meetable yourself!\nIf you'd like to see Meetable in action, check out the three instances I maintain:\nevents.indieweb.org\n  events.oauth.net\n  oktadev.events\nYou can install Meetable on Heroku in about 5 minutes using the Heroku Deploy button! It even has a little installer so you can quickly install it on shared hosting as well!\nIf you have any ideas for additional features, please let me know! The best way is to open an issue on GitHub, and if you see an existing issue that sounds like something you want, please comment or upvote it!",

This would have the great benefit of also having all of the stream functionality OOTB. I haven\u2019t explored WP for wiki pages much, but I know that Ton does it. I think I personally won\u2019t do it this way as I find WordPress too much friction for me for writing, but having everything in one system is obviously a big boon.\nI think if I could use Arcology combined with org-roam, that\u2019d get me a pretty sweet bliki setup. (With more on top, including some of the note-taking and sensemaking bits too).\nBut I think it\u2019ll be a while before I\u2019m set up with Arcology, and even then, given it is static, it\u2019s missing a lot of the building blocks of the IndieWeb that would also need adding. So I\u2019ll keep it as this manual Rube Goldberg device for now.\nBut, good to have a long-term goal!"
