WHO GETS TO ENTER ARTICLES TO THE WEBSITE?

Unlike ordinary parish websites, you do not have to rely on one person to work on your website. We have empowered you and your staff or any of your authorized designatees to take over the website and enter articles for you. All this is done without any programming knowledge required. In essence, you can authorize as many people as you want to work on your website.

The following are the parish sections you can and should edit on a regular basis. Now is a good time to decide who you can have access to each, some or all of these sections.

AROUND THE PARISH
NEWS BULLETINS
PASTORAL CORNER
SACRAMENTS
MINISTRIES
BLOGS
SHARE YOUR TIME
STAFF MEMBERS
RELIGIOUS ED
YOUTH LIFE

Users can be designated as ADMINISTRATOR(S) or CONTENT MANAGER(S).

Here are our suggested designatees:

PASTOR OR OFFICE MANAGER - This person will be designated as the ADMINISTRATOR. He or she can assign and/or terminate Content managers. He or she can change or remove passwords.

CONTENT MANAGERS - These are people who can enter articles into the different sections of your website.

1. BULLETIN EDITOR. Start with whoever is making the bulletin. We suggest you give her access to all sections. She or he can be your point person because she or he knows the latest announcements from the parish every week. We suggest she does the following:

a. Email a PDF copy of the bulletin weekly to cservice@parishworld.net. We suggest she does this at the same time she emails the bulletin to the bulletin company on Wednesdays.

b. Identify the 3 or 4 new articles for the week and enter these are new articles in pwadmin.parishworld.net. In our experience, this can be a 20-30 minute process weekly.

2. YOUTH MINISTER. We suggest you give this person access to Youth Life.

3. PARISH SECRETARY. We suggest you give this person access to all sections.

4. RELIGIOUS EDUCATION DIRECTOR. We suggest you give this person access to Religious Ed section.

5. VOLUNTEERS OR OTHER STAFF MEMBERS. As needed, we suggest you give them access to the specific sections you might need help with.

As part of our initial set-up, our office will setup user authorizations and passwords for your initial list of designated Admins and Content Managers. Please email to cservice@parishworld.net all of their names, position titles, emails and phones. and please label each one as either Admin or Content Manager. We will enter these initial information for you. Your designated ADMIN can later edit user authorizations and passwords as he or she sees fit.
