Consolidating Event Pages
Creative DiarySunday, August 30, 2026
Until now, event pages were split into two types: single-day events and multi-day/period events (such as exhibitions or fairs), with separate pages for each. That structure has been in place since the Zindies release, but we've finally been able to unify them.
Period events are displayed for the entire duration, so they have more presence than single-day events, which can make single-day events less noticeable. Also, unlike single-day events, ZINE creators are often not present at period events, so I thought it might be better to keep them separate as a type of information.
However, because period events were not shown by default (they were toggled via a link), they tended to go unnoticed, and since there aren't many of them at the moment, we decided to display them together. Even so, single-day events are shown higher in the listing.
Period events can be created by anyone who is registered as a shop on the site, so if you run that kind of event, please give it a try.
