# Event detail

The event detail page is where you see how an event lives with its own rules, markers, and payment settings.

## Main event information

At the top of the event page you’ll see:

* **Event name** and **description** – what the event is about.
* **Network** – which chain the event runs on, with its logo.
* **Owner** – the address that created the event (shown as “owned by you” if it’s yours).
* **Created time** – when the event went live.

This section helps you understand what you are joining before you pin anything.

## Share the event on social media

If you like the event:

* Copy the event link or share it directly via social buttons.
* Invite friends, your community, or your audience to join and grow the story on the map.

## Event markers

Above the map there is usually a **list of event markers** defined by the event owner:

* Each entry shows a small **image preview** for that event marker.
* This list is the **pre‑defined marker set** for the event – if custom markers are disabled, participants can only use these visuals when they pin.
* For each marker, you can see a **pin count** showing how many times that specific marker has been pinned.

This makes it easy to see which visuals the event is built around and which ones the community is using the most.

### Joining the event with a marker

If the event is **enabled for participation**, you can add your own pin to the story:

* First, you choose **how** you want to participate, based on the event rules:
  * If the event owner has only provided pre‑defined markers and **custom markers are disabled**, you pick one of the official event marker images from the list.
  * If the event settings allow **custom markers**, you can instead **create your own marker** image (using the same editor as personal markers) and use that for your pin.
* You then give your marker a short **name** and write a **message** explaining your contribution to the event.
* Finally, you complete the on‑chain steps from your wallet:
  * Confirm the **pin payment** for creating the NFT.
  * If there is an **event fee**, confirm that payment as well.

Once the transaction is confirmed on‑chain, your marker is minted and:

* It appears on the event’s map and in the list of markers that have been pinned into the event.
* It also lives in your wallet as an NFT, just like your personal markers.

## Event map and pinned markers

The event detail page also gives you a dedicated map view for this event:

* The map is centered and zoomed according to the **event’s own map settings**, so you see the area the creator chose as the “home view” for the story.
* As people pin markers into the event, those markers appear on this map at their respective locations.
* You can move around and zoom in or out to explore where different contributions are coming from – sometimes all in one city, sometimes spread across the world.

This makes it easy to read the event not just as a list, but as a living geography of all the places people have pinned.

## Pin counts for this event

At this section you can see the **total pin count** for the event – how many markers in total have been minted into it – and, if the creator set one, the event’s **maximum pin count**, which shows how many pins the event can accept before it closes for new participation.

Even if the event owner later removes an event marker image from the configuration, any pins that were already created with that marker still count toward this total and remain part of the event’s history.

## Markers that have been pinned into the event

Over time, an event becomes a collection of all the markers that people have pinned into it.

* You can browse the list of markers that belong to the event and see who pinned what.
* Each marker entry usually shows its image, a short title or message preview, and how many times it has been minted inside this event.
* From each item, you can jump to the full marker detail page if you want to explore that story on its own.

This makes it easy to understand not just what the event is about, but how people have actually participated in it.

The event detail page turns an item you saw in the Explore list into a living, collective memory space – with its rules, markers, payments, and community all in one place.
