Development Site Link

To: Fr. Andy Booms

Good morning Father Andy,


Welcome back from vacation! I hope you enjoyed the relaxing time off and aren't feeling too stressed now that you're back.

Now, I know we had discussed sending you a link to the development site, but there are some essential parts of the site that we want to perfect before sending the link. With these issues in mind, I think we are going to hold off on sending the link until the end of the week. Let me know if this works for you.

Again, welcome back and we will talk to you soon!

Good afternoon Fr. Andy,

Just wanted to reach out and send you a link to the development site so you can look over things and keep track of our progress: http://stbrigid-midland.diocesanweb.com/.

We'll be in touch shortly to schedule a training as well.

Thanks, and have a great weekend!

Hi Fr. Andy, 

The school site is available here: http://stbrigid-midland.diocesanweb.com/school/. I am working on the landing page where there will be the option to navigate to the church and the school, as seen in the design previews.

Thanks!

Hi Fr. Andy,

Is there a good time over the next few weeks that we could schedule a training session for the new sites? My schedule is fairly flexible, with the exception of Monday and Wednesday afternoons.

Since your previous sites are built on WordPress, I'm sure you know the basics of the Dashboard and Editor; we'll just walk through new features to help you get familiarized with the new sites. That being said, would you like do one meeting with all the staff or two separate for the church and the school?

Thank you,
Daniel

Fr. Andy,


I am about to send you the responses to the issues, although we were able to resolve most of them.

I will send you the list shortly,

Hi Daniel,

I know you mentioned training on the new website.

How much time do we need, and when is good for you now? I have one key person out with the flu, so certainly we would want to wait until next week….
It would be best to do it before Easter if we can.
Thank you!

how much time do we need?
To: Veronica Alvarado
TO THE CLIENT Daniel Shamburger Daniel Shamburger
Whoops, I missed that question. Since your previous site(s) are built on WordPress, I imagine it will be fairly quick. We generally schedule around  90mins to 2 hours, but it really depends on familiarity level and amount of questions from the staff. 

Thanks,

Hi Daniel

Just wondered where we stand in finishing the website?

I see the mobile response is not there and the Facebook and app feed is not yet setup?

Hi Fr. Andy,

We do a fair amount of local development, and then push changes to the production server once everything's complete, so we're on track to have everything ready to go Friday. Is everything on the content side of things ready to go? I believe there were additional calendars that we wanted to add on the school site. 

I did a "who is" lookup on your domain (https://www.whois.com/whois/stbrigid-midland.org) which indicates Nadine Yarger is the technical contact. Is she the correct person to contact in order to update the host records to point to our IP address to launch?

Thanks,
Daniel

Our ip is managed by linked technologies.

We made several content edits on the website recently. Content should be ready.

I thought Tracy had sent the link for the school google calendar. But I will recheck and send it to you again

Blessings and Peace,

TO THE CLIENT Daniel Shamburger Daniel Shamburger
Fr. Andy,

Do you have an account number or specific contact I should reach out to at Linked Technologies?

Great! 

Hmm, I don't think I've received anything from Tracy, but I'll double-check. My direct email is dshamburger@diocesan.com.

Thanks,
Daniel

This is the school calendar link.

It should be the feed for the main school homepage.

In your second message, I'm not seeing a link. Is it a forward by any chance? Unfortunately, Basecamp only shows your message.

Hi Fr. Andy,

Your new site is launched! https://stbrigid-midland.org/ 

We discussed sending news posts automatically to Facebook on the school side, but I'm not sure what was decided for the parish, since we switched the homepage from news posts to myParish App messages. Would you still like me to set this up as well?

Keep in mind you'll now login at stbrigid-midland.org/midland.

Please let us know if you have any questions or issues. Have a good weekend!

Looks like they missed school.stbrigid-midland.org (http://school.stbrigid-midland.org). It’s still going to the old site and needs to pointed to the new dns

Hmm, we talked about the subdomain, and he said he’d make sure to change that as well... I’m wondering if maybe it’s just taking a little longer to get switched over?

Can you make a redirect to take them to the school part of the new page if someone puts the school.stbrigid-midland.org (http://school.stbrigid-midland.org) address in

When they started to point the dns service to the new server it was generating an error since the server was not expecting the school. Request.

The display of the parish home page on a mobile device is not quiet right. It works in landscape but not portrait.

Hi Fr. Andy,

Thanks for pointing that out - the myParish App message area on the homepage should look better on mobile now. 

As for http://school.stbrigid-midland.org, unfortunately it's still pointing to the old server. I'll call LinkedTech first thing Monday morning and ask again about getting that switched to our server.

Hope you're having a great weekend, and we'll be in touch Monday.

Yes linked said they were switching it over but there was a server area since the url school.stbrigid-midland.org (http://school.stbrigid-midland.org) was not on the new server. They can point it to the new dns but the redirect needs to be on the server too.

I just realized we lost our calendar feed on the parish page. Can the app , Facebook and the calendar feed each take a column? Thank you! Hope the storm has lifted on your side of the state.

Hi Fr. Andy,

I think you're cc'd on the email from Andy Chartier at LinkedTech, but http://school.stbrigid-midland.org/ should now redirect to the new school site.

And certainly, I'll add back the calendar column to so they each take up 1/3 the area.

Weather conditions are slowly improving. I hope it's not too bad for you! 

Thanks,
Daniel
