Prismic (Event)

An Event promotes something happening at or around your property: a wine tasting, a rooftop concert, a market nearby. Events appear in the Events section of the guest's My Stay page, sorted by start date, and open into a detail page with image, description, times, and location. Past events disappear automatically.

1. Creating an Event​

  1. Log in to your Prismic account and filter via "Type - Event" to see existing events.
  2. Click "Create New" and select "Event" or open an existing event to edit it.
  3. Fill in the fields (section 2), then Save and Publish.
  4. Repeat the content in all relevant languages: each language version is edited separately, like every Prismic document.

2. The Event Fields​

a) Main​

  • Title: the event name, shown on the card and the detail page.
  • PMS ID: the property the event belongs to. Only guests of that property see it.
  • Cover Image: shown on the card and as the header of the detail page.
  • From: start date and time. Events are sorted by this date, and the detail page shows it as the start time.
  • To: end date and time. ⚠️ This field does double duty: once it is in the past, the event disappears from the list automatically and an event without a To date is never listed at all. Always set it.
  • Address (address lines, city, ZIP, country): shown as the location block on the detail page. Leave all address fields empty to hide the block.
  • Google Maps Link: makes the location block clickable.

b) Card and Details​

  • Card subtitle: the short line under the title in the Events list.
  • Details subtitle: the line under the title on the detail page.
  • Event description: the full text of the detail page.

3. Where Guests See Events​

  • My Stay → Events: upcoming events for the property, soonest first, with paging when there are many. The section is hidden entirely while no upcoming events exist.
  • Event detail page: opened from the card: cover image, subtitle, description, start and end time, and the location with map link.
  • Info Stay: events are also reachable in the QR-based property view for visitors without a stay (see Info Stay).

ℹ️ The heading of the Events section comes from your portal wording and can be adjusted per property.

4. Best Practices​

  • Always set the To date: it is what removes the event from the portal on time (and without it, the event never shows).
  • One event per property: for the same event at several properties, duplicate the document per property with the respective PMS ID.
  • Keep titles short (the card layout favours one line) and put the detail into the description.

5. Conclusion​

An event needs a title, a PMS ID, a From date and a To date. Once published in a language, it appears for the guests of that property, sorted by its From date, and drops out of the list after its To date has passed.
