Development Site Link
Hello Yvonne & Curt,
I have just finished loading your website content onto your new website and wanted to share our progress with you! Below is the link the development site.
https://stjpiiparish.diocesanweb.org
Some things to note are that, as I said, it is a development site. This means that there are still items that we are taking care of and what you see is at 80-90% completion. The main item that we still need to complete is the mobile responsiveness of your new website.
Other items that we are working on are:
- Completing the homepage news posts tabs
- Styling the 404 page
- Styling the search results/no results page
- Styling a Category page
Last, we do have a question about the Formed.org box within your new website design (see attached, approved mockup). Was this section going to be hardcoded or something that you planned on switching out? If it is something that you will be switching out, we may need to have a further conversation detailing how you expect it to function.
Thank you so much you two,

Veronica, I’ve attached info for parish council, finance committee and a blank registration form. I also have questions about sizing pictures for the website. I need to know what size they should be as some do not center right.
Hi Yvonne,
I just wanted to let you know that the contacts and PDF registration form are online. I began working on the online form but wanted to double check with you as to if you wanted to even have it, as it does take about an hour or so to create. Please let me know.
As for the images, the homepage main image, the homepage post images, and header background images are all mobile responsive images, which means that there are not actual dimensions or ratios that are used. For this reason, we suggest using concept images or action images rather than images where you need to see everything for these images an recommend putting the images you'd liek people to focus on in the content of the page or post.
Did you have a date in mind for training? We'd love to go over the new elements of the website and get a launch date schedule for you.
Thank you,

Let me speak to Fr. Bill and will get back with you ASAP.
When you talk about images are you referring to the slider pictures?
We also want to post our news and events on the home page.
Yvonne,
The images I mean are the homepage image at the top (option of single image, slider, or video), Image Headers of pages, and your homepage news posts.
As seen above, your news & events already exist on the homepage. During the training, we will go over how to add and remove post categories from displaying on the homepage.

Will the training be live? Also just a pdf to download. You don’t have to design a new one.
Yvonne,
The training will be done remotely, through a phone call and screen sharing. We help you set this up at the beginning of the training. It is typically ~2 hours, but since you are already familiar with WordPress, it may be much shorter.
While most editing elements are the same in terms of layout, there is some additional functionality that we have created for you.
Let me know if you have any other questions regarding the training or the current website,

Can we train on March 29 at 9am?
Thanks for getting back to me, Yvonne!
I am available for a training from 9:00 -10:30 am.
Is it going to be just you in the training, or will there be other people sitting in as well? Also, what number should I reach you at?

Curt and I should be the only ones. We want to launch the site right after Easter. Our other church will be closed after that and we’ll only use one address.
Sounds good. I'll make note of that now.
Should I call you at the parish office then?

502-459-4251, yes ma’am.
On formation will we be able to download pdf’s, post news, etc? We requested to be able to do that. Also Kathaleen Riggs will be joining the training. She does the Formation here.
Yvonne,
Just as with your old website, you will be able to add PDFs to any of your pages. As for the news posts, you will have the ability to link to any post and are still working on styling posts so that you can easily add a category of posts to individual pages.
Thank you for letting me know that Kathleen will be in on the training as well.
