Website Launched!
Good afternoon Stephanie,
Congratulations, your new website is now live and visible to the world!
I'm still not seeing the live site. Why is that?
The industry standard for launch changes to propagate is 0-72 hours. However, it's been my experience that you can usually see these changes within 2 hours. You will know it was successful when visiting https://saintfrancesxcabrini.org/ brings up the site seen here: https://francesxcabrini.diocesanweb.org/.
If you can see the website on a computer or mobile device not using your parish's internet, it may be that your parish's internal server needs to be reset or may have the IP address of your previous host manually set up. If this is the case, you will have to talk to your IT person, as this is not something Diocesan can help with.
New Login Page
Although you will now go to https://saintfrancesxcabrini.org/lorainto log in, your login credentials are still the same.
Hidden Login Hours
For security issues, we have made the website's backend inaccessible during the hours of 1:00-6:00 am. If you would prefer for us to turn this security feature off, please let us know as soon as possible.
Statistics
Since your website is now live, we have also added the ability to track your website's statistics.
Feel free to view the statistics by clicking Statistics. This will give you access to see what devices are being used, how people are finding your website, and your top pages/link.
Support Moving Forward
You do also have another 2 weeks from your launch date to call and ask us any questions for free. After those 2 weeks, the paid support will go into effect. Paid support is $70/hr (prorated).
If you have any issues or questions in the future, please email us at webdepartment@diocesan.com or call us at 877-923-0777.
Canceling Previous Website Host
Launching your website DOES NOT cancel your previous web hosting service. Diocesan does, however, suggest that you do not cancel your previous web hosting service until at least 2 business days after your new website launches.
NOTE: Some website hosting companies may package website hosting and domain hosting/renewal together. If this is true for you, you may want to consider transferring your domain over to Diocesan. You may begin this process by emailing us at webdepartment@diocesan.com or calling 877-923-0777.
Other Resources
Just in case we didn’t mention it in the training, here are some resources for free, stock images to use throughout your website:
Please let me know if you have any questions and, again, congratulations!

Hi Cody,
Was the previous web host (Ionos by 1&1) cancel? The domain information should have been transferred to Diocesan. Also, when using the configure conditional logic is there a way to select more than just one section at a time for the forms? Plus when using the Evangelus there's an option to add information to the website when I send out newsletters. Do I need to make a page for Evangelus newsletters on the website or do I need to do something else?

Good Morning Stephanie,
We are in the middle of transferring the domain over to us, so that we can get the GSuite Process started once that is transferred. Sometimes this process can take some time, but we should be able to start the GSuite Process by early next week at the latest. Once this is transferred, you should be able to cancel everything with IONOS, domain and hosting.
For the conditional logic for forms, you can have the stuff you want to show/hide within a section and do conditional logic for the whole section and that will show/hide all fields in that section until the next section break. The last bolded part is important so that you aren't hiding other things that are important (e.g. CAPTCHA).
With Evangelus, you can bring those newsletters into the website through an RSS feed. I am not too familiar with the latest version of Evangelus, but if you are able to find the RSS Feed link then you can make a page for it and use the RSS Block ('/rss') to bring it in and configure the settings to how you want it to appear.
Let me know if I need to provide further clarification anywhere!
Thank you,
Cody Armock
