The “Line-up” widget: show every act of your event

The Line-up widget shows all acts of your event as a list. Each name appears only once, even when an act plays on several stages. Acts with an artist page appear with their picture and a link to their page.

The widget exists only on event pages. The line-up and the Timetable show the same programme: what you enter here is used by the timetable too. The owner and the team of the event can edit it.

How to add the widget

  1. Open the event page and tap Edit in the bar.
  2. Tap Add a widget here and choose the tile Line-up in the group Dates.
  3. Create the stages and slots in the dialog (see below).
  4. Tap Insert, then Save in the bar. The line-up applies only once you save the page.

If a line-up exists already, for example because the timetable is on the page, the bottom reads: “The line-up exists already. You only add the tile.”

Creating stages

A stage is a stage or a room with its own slots. Without a stage, tap Add Stage or start with Main Stage or 2 stages. Every stage needs a Stage name (at most 200 characters). The menu next to the name moves or deletes a stage; when you delete, the app says how many slots go with it.

Entering slots on desktop

From tablet width, each stage is a table with the columns Date, Start, End and Artists.

  1. Tap Add Slot.
  2. Enter Start and End as HH:MM, for example 23:00. Without times the slot stays line-up only: it appears in the line-up but not in the timetable.
  3. Type a name in the Artists column. Under Suggestions from artist pages, pick an artist page or take “Add … as a name”. With B2B you mark acts that play together. It applies to every artist of the slot, so a duo plus a solo act are two slots.
  4. The menu of a row opens Details for a label such as “Headliner”, Duplicate, moves the slot or removes it.

A slot after midnight carries the date of the next day. Slots with a date and a start sort themselves by them; moving a slot never changes its date. Slots without times you move by their handle.

On desktop you enter slots in a table.

Entering slots on the phone

On narrow screens each slot is a card. Tap Add Slot at the bottom or an existing card. A panel Add slot … or Edit slot … opens with Date, Start, End, the label and the Artists. Next slot goes straight on to the next one, Done closes the panel, Delete slot removes it.

On the phone you edit one slot after the other.

Visitors see every act; artist pages are linked.

What visitors see

Visitors see the acts in the order of the stages and slots. With more than 12 acts the list folds; Show all … opens it. The head of the tile shows the number of acts, such as “9 acts”. If an artist page is not public, the editor marks it “not public”; the link is kept all the same, and visitors see only the name until the page is public.

Common problems

  • “The event has no date yet, the time fields are off.” Tap Set date. Without a date you can only enter artists.
  • “Name the stage.” Every stage needs a name, otherwise the page cannot be saved.
  • “Start and end are the same.” or “Enter a time as HH:MM, e.g. 23:00.” Correct the marked time.
  • “This time does not exist that night: the clocks skip an hour.” In the night the clocks go forward, one hour is missing; choose another time.
  • “… is still in the field.” Pick a suggestion; pressing again adds the text as a name.
  • The line-up on the page is empty. In Management mode, Edit the line-up opens the editor. Do not forget Save afterwards.
