Website Launched!
Hello, all -
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 may need to flush your computer's DNS if you aren't seeing the new site - let me know if you have any issues with that.
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
You will continue to go to https://saintcabrinicatholic.org/orlando to log in, your login credentials are still the same as the temporary site.
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
As you may have noticed, on your WordPress Dashboard, there is a Diocesan Web Support box with links to help articles that we have written especially for our websites, complete with step-by-step instructions and images. This should help with most of the questions that you may have.
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) and is billed monthly to the parish with each support items (date, amount of time, notes) itemized out.
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 (if applicable)
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.

Please let me know if you have any questions and, again, congratulations!

Hi, Mary -
Thanks for this! The log-in page /orlando doesn't seem to be working. Is that normal?

Got it. THanks, Cody!
Ah, sorry about the login slug mixup - I think I was looking at the temp site login when I typed that up - my apologies!

Hi, Mary:
I couldn’t find the support dashboard, so please forgive me if there’s another Avenue I should send this to.
On the homepage of the mobile version of the site our 5pm Saturday Mass doesn’t appear under “Mass Times”
Any idea why that could be?

Hello!
We usually keep the Basecamp project open for a bit after launch, so this is fine for communicating - eventually, we'll ask you use webdepartment@diocesan.com for support questions, as that's our main web support email.
I'll ask a developer to take a look at that - I noticed yesterday the Sat. wasn't showing on mobile, but I thought it was by design, so I didn't mention it. I'll ask him to see about fixing that - thank you!

Hi, Mary:
I see we are making progress, but the divider bar is now overlaying.

Brandon,
We adjusted it further after that - you're likely seeing it mid-completion. You may need to clear your browsers cache to see the full fix.
Thank you!
