Development Link
Good morning Char,
We have reached the point in development at which we share a link to the development site with you and are ready to schedule your first training session.
Training Sessions
The first training session typically takes ~2 hours and is done remotely via a screen share program. We will send over the meeting link and phone number in a later email.
During the training sessions, we go over:
- How to edit the homepage content
- How to edit the footer
- How to edit the menu
- How to create/edit inner pages
- How to create/edit posts
- How to create/edit image galleries
- How to create/edit online forms
Since this can be a lot, we break the training down into two sessions:
Session 1: Editing the site basics
Session 2: Editing the additional site features & answering follow-up questions
This is completely up to your learning pace and how much you feel comfortable covering at once.
Development Site Link
Something to keep in mind is that the site is not quite completed yet, with the largest thing being mobile responsiveness. That said, it is best to look at the development site on a desktop computer, rather than a laptop or smaller screen. Mobile development/responsiveness is something that the developer completes after the training so that he can update any changes along with the original development!
There are some other big items that we are still working on, such as:
- Menu color (current menu is blue on blue on hover)
- Header Logo needs to be replaced (sticky header is blue on blue)
Other than that, if you see anything that alarms you (design or functionality), please let me know and we can address your concerns.

I’m available on Tuesday mornings for the first training session.
I’d like to send you photos for the banner and a better logo. Shall I wait until the training session to do this?

I’ve sent the logo and a few photos for the home banner.

I have updated the logo, but it is even smaller since the logo has a maximum height. Let me know what you think.
I have also updated the image on the homepage and uploaded the other two images to the website for future use.
For the training session, does 10am - 12 pm on Tuesday, January 5 work for you? If so, I can schedule the training for Cody and send over the Zoom details.

Veronica,
Please give me the dimensions you need for the logo. I think it looks too small. I would like to maximize the logo, so what ever the largest size logo I can put in that space, that’s what I want.
Photo looks good on the home page. Please change the Welcome to say Welcome to St. Mary.
Also, the footer on the home page is too large, which makes the layout of the info too stacked. Perhaps reduce the font size.
Thank you!

Good morning Char,
I have updated the welcome on the homepage. As for the logo, the maximum is 105px by 80px (tall). The maximum height is 80px, so this is what is dictating the logo size. If you are wanting the logo to be taller, I can ask the developer and we can discuss what you are looking for on each version of the logo (homepage, inner page, sticky menu, etc.).
I made a to-do for the developer to make the footer information (body copy) smaller to match the Mass Times. We also have a to-do for the footer so only the button (and not the link) show up under Mass Times.
Let me know if there is anything else you see!
