Run your community on SilphBoard
A free public hub for your local Pokémon GO community — leaderboards, meetup check-ins, and event scoreboards.
What your community gets
- A public community home — a shareable hub with your own logo and banner, a Feed of what's ongoing/upcoming and a recent-activity timeline, a Schedule of meetups and Pokédex catch windows, a leaderboard, and a members list.
- A shareable join link — send members a link that drops them straight into your community, whether they already have an account or need to sign up first.
- In-person meetup check-in — generate a QR code for a meetup and members check in by scanning it, no app install or account required on their end.
- Pokédex catch-count scoreboards — members upload a before/after screenshot for an event and their catch count is read automatically and added to the scoreboard.
- Stamps for your members — award badges automatically for meetup check-ins or catch uploads, or hand them out manually for anything else worth recognizing.
- Push notifications — notify your community's subscribers directly when it matters.
- Timezone-aware — meetup windows and check-in times are resolved against your community's own timezone, not the server's.
Your logo and banner
Your community page can show your own logo and banner image instead of the generic SilphBoard look. These are added for you on request (see below) — send both images along with your other details, or at any time afterward.
- Logo — square, at least 256×256px. It's shown small and cropped to a circle, so keep the important part centered and avoid text near the edges. PNG with a transparent background works well. Max file size 2 MB.
- Banner — wide, at least 1200×400px (a 3:1 ratio). It's stretched to fill the top of your community page and cropped on narrow screens, so keep key details centered rather than at the far edges. Max file size 4 MB.
Requesting a community
There's no self-service sign-up yet — communities are set up by hand. Email audun@drup.no with:
- Your community's name
- Its timezone
- A Campfire and/or Discord link, if you have one (optional)
- A logo and/or banner image, if you'd like one (optional, see dimensions above)
Once it's set up, you'll be given community-admin access so you can manage meetups, award stamps, and enable Pokédex uploads for your community's events.
