Instructions used to install Zoneminder?

Am using slightly different html code:

I change scale=100 to fit the images on the page better

Nope. Just the way it works. To avoid this just disable a monitor you no longer want and reuse it for the next camera. Easy enough to delete its old events.

Read the instructions:

If you are using MySQL there is a section on additional steps that need to be done before running the Zoneminder install

This has been answered before.
Remove the 1.32 ppa
Add the 1.34 ppa
apt upgrade

I upgraded a 1.30.4 on Bionic with no issues. Was just a test as I had upgraded the hardware with a newer PC. Still, I feel the upgrade would have run well.

When you set up the run state were your monitor(s) set to none?
Change the monitor from none then save the run state.

A couple of corrections to your Zoneminder install procedure... Your procedure adds the ppa but does not install Zoneminder. sudo apt-get update is not needed in Bionic as add-apt-repository does this. apt install zoneminder is needed! sudo systemctl enable zoneminder.service should be: sudo systemc...

I seemed to remember from a while back that Zones do not change across Run States. So I did a test with ZM 1.34.5 and set up two new Run States and changed the Zone in each and as I suspected they did not change when I switched run states. With that said, you can set a run state for Day and another ...

I've also tested this format on a server that has a 2nd "storage" drive. Did not have to specify the storage.
Note: you need to leave the purge when full filter as it is (possibly set to 85% vice 95%) as a backup in case your other day purge does not work.

Less than or equal to -14 day

Instead of disk space might try the one about storage. But leave the disk space out to test if the first part of the filter works.

Looks like your events directory does not have www-data ownership. If you set another storage drive it too needs www-data ownership in the events directory.

It is a good idea to run this from a cron job at least once a week. Use to be run from options by default but it sometimes did not finish before the next purge ran.
