How Patchwork Bristol works, and what it shows about the free plugin.

A whole community calendar on the free plugin

Patchwork Bristol runs on Nex Directory Free only: no Pro, no listing cap. Residents get a calendar, a map, date chips, RSVPs with waitlists and add-to-calendar links. Organisers get a host workspace with check-in mode and a share kit with a QR poster.

How posting works on a real site

With Members can submit switched on, neighbours sign up and post events from the front end. Drafts save as they type, every event goes through moderation with reviewer notes, and organisers see RSVPs, the waitlist and check-ins in their own workspace.

This public demo is read-only: sign-up is closed and no shared login is published, so you can browse everything but nothing you do changes the site.

Everything here is invented

The groups, venues and people are fictional. The streets, squares and parks are real so the map looks right; no house numbers are used.
