Our Game Jam isn't showing on Itch.io game jam lists

Our 5th Itch.io jam doesn't seem to be showing up on the itch.io list?

https://itch.io/jam/the-matrice

Is there something we are missing? The unlisted option under published is unchecked. Any help would be appreciated, we spent a decent amount of time on the jam trailer hate it to go to waste?

No. As explained all over the support category, game jams have to be seen by an admin before they show up in the calendar, and if they go on for too long they might not be shown even then because they can mess up the page. In the mean time, you can promote the jam by any other means, since it's public and works just fine otherwise,

I will peruse the support category to make sure I don't miss anything else. Thanks.

I had the same issue/question, but couldn't find any mention of the jam needing to be approved.  It's perfectly sensible, and I suspected maybe that is why ours hasn't appeared yet, but it is NOT at all obvious.   A message right at the bottom of the Jam editing page near the Save button saying, "Note: your Game Jam will not be listed until it has been approved ... blah, blah."  Just a suggestion.
