Nichol,

Here is the link to the development site:

Please keep in mind that we are still working on items such as the menu, inner page layout, and mobile responsiveness. Regardless, if you see anything that worries you, please bring it to our attention.

Thank you,

Hi,

Thank you for the link, it’s nice to see something more interactive. It looks like it has a long way to go however. With that said, I really want to wait for training until it’s nearly done. If you train me now, I’ll forget by the time it’s up to me to take over.

Thank you, Nichol

Makes sense. Was there a day later in the week that works best for you to just go over what we have left to do? I know what is on our list, but you may have had conversations with Sam about functionality or design that we are unaware of.

Thanks, Nichol,

Hi Veronica,

I’m sorry for the late response. I know you need input from me. I am so upside down in my workload right now. Is it ok to put this on the backburner for a few weeks? All our Lenten activities are in full swing and I’m being pulled in a thousand directions. I’m so very sorry.

Thank you, Nichol

I completely understand! I just wanted to make sure that your other website host isn't going down anytime soon.

Otherwise, it is totally up to you and your schedule. Is there a date you'd like me to get back in touch with you, or will you be reaching out to me when you are ready?

Thank you,

Hello,

I just looked now and it looks pretty nice! What remains to be done? I need to dig out my notes and go through them, since it’s been since December that I looked at them last. Hopefully, it won’t need much fine-tuning.

Thank you, Nichol

I think we're doing some mobile styling, but that's normally done between the training and launch since it is the last thing we do.

I know that since we moved the content over in December, there may be some pages that you'll need to add on the new website, but I don't think there is too much other than that.

Hi Nichol,

It's been a while since we've talked and we were wondering if you were reading to be trained on editing the new website. The training session typically takes between 1.5-2 hours and is done remotely (unfortunately, haha).

Let me know what days and times work best for you next week.

Thank you,

Hello,

Thank you for your email. I’ve been planning to contact you as well. Could I please have a current link to the site so that I can re-orient myself to what has been done so far? Are you totally finished with everything on your end?

Thank you, Nichol

Good morning Nichol,

The only thing we have not completed is mobile responsiveness since we only do this after the first training session. We wait until after the first training session so that if you have any updates or changes, we can complete those before beginning the entire site's mobile responsiveness.
That way, we won't miss anything and we only have to do the mobile responsiveness once.

Other than that, we migrated all content in early March and have not moved any additional content since then. This is because we did not know which new pages were made, in addition to almost reaching our quoted, 25-hour content migration budget.

Here is the link to the development site:
https://stgg.diocesanweb.org/

Let me know if you have any questions or dates in mind for the first training session.

Thank you!

Are you sure that’s the correct link?? There was so much that I discussed with Sam Lanning that isn’t shown here. Some of them I know he changed already because he showed me, but many have been reverted back to earlier drafts. There are also virtually none of the animations that were supposed to be done by the developer.

Hi Nichol,

The developer built the website based off of the designs and, unfortunately, when Sam left in December, he did not leave any additional notes behind.

How about we set up a time to discuss the changes and animations so that I can take note of them to share with the developer. That way, we don't miss anything and can talk through any current issues.

Hi,

Sam left the company or stopped this portion of the project? I’m going to be out of the office for most of the day at a meeting, how about if we talk tomorrow?

Thank you, Nichol

We have the saved out designs that Sam had created, but Sam is no longer at Diocesan and did not have any written notes about what you two had discussed.

I have meetings all day today, but are you available at 2:30 pm tomorrow to go over the updates?

Oh my goodness, that makes me want to cry. His stock answer was that the developers were going to take care of it.. ☹

Yes, 2:30 will work. Is that 11:30 Pacific Coast Time?

Veronica Alvarado, Project Manager

I'm so sorry about that, Nichol. Trust me when I say that I feel the same way. Typically, there is a discussion that happens between the designer and the developer when the project is near completion so that the designer can do a check of the website before we send you a link.

As for the time, that IS 11:30 am Pacific. Does that time work for you?
