Release 1.5.0 GM - August 6, 2020

This is probably the largest update to Tilma since version 1.0, with important changes to the User Interface that is all about making it easier for you to use your Tilma site. From improving the people imports via CSV (Comma Separated Value) files, to auto-filling forms for logged-in users, and being able to manage email subscriptions across multiple sites, the changes are all about continuing to make your site simpler and easier to use.

There are also big updates to the People, Emails, and Events tools. There is now a Locations tool for parishes that have multiple physical and virtual locations, which will make it easy to display those locations and connect that data to the Massfinder app (where available), as well as the new upcoming parish mass times manager.

What’s New

USER INTERFACE (UI) UPDATES:

• Improved the CSV importing tool interface - you can leave the importing page while the import proceeds, and now errors don’t stop the entire import
• Announcements can now be reordered in the admin area so they can display in any order on the homepage
• New option to insert collapsible accordion sections on pages, ministries & events
• Old style FAQs have been completely removed from Sacraments pages, and can be replaced by using the collapsable accordion sections. These can be seeded by the diocese, but also edited by each parish.
• Multi-site subscriptions - users can manage all the subscriptions for multiple sites from their profile. Admins can now view a parishioner’s subscriptions and manage in a limited way.
• There is now Single Sign-On (SSO) for Tilma admins and users accessing more than one site (ie. have accounts on multiple parish or diocese sites). No more logging in to each site individually -- the platform detects when you’re signed into one site, and automatically signs you into any other sites where you have an account.
• For visitors and admins logged into their Tilma sites, forms will now auto-fill with account information, such as name, email address, home address and other contact details.

PEOPLE

• Parishioner profiles now have status flags - Active, Inactive, & Moved Away. Inactive and Moved away will not be included in emails sent via the Emails tool.
• Duplicate person creation - when creating a new parishioner profile, will automatically detect potential duplicate accounts based on the email address and connect the parish to the existing profile.
• Welcome (aka confirmation) emails can now be re-sent to individuals that may have missed so they can set their user password, and confirm subscriptions settings.
• Added permission to edit Locations as a default to Power User, Full Access & Diocese level administrator profiles. This corrects the error message admins saw when attempting to add, delete or edit locations.
• Team Members who have clergy designations will now be able to be displayed on a parish’s Massfinder page (where available).
• Refined the search to better match similar name spellings, and clearing search terms now properly refreshes results.
• Improved the ability to manage a person’s “primary” parish site, as well as managing secondary sites.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

• You can now manually reorder the position of the announcements from top to bottom.
• Fixed formatting for thumbnail images so they don’t get “pushed” out of their box
• Fixed bug where some parish’s announcements weren’t visible despite correct settings in place.

EMAIL

• Can set default email banners and logo overlays, but can be overridden during email creation.
• Uploading files (such as PDFs) will now include the correct domain in the download link.
• Test emails will now have [TEST] added to the beginning of the subject line.
• “Send” button now provides better visual feedback of success

EVENTS

• Events can now be grouped in a Parent/Child relationship - an overall event can be an umbrella for several events, such as a series of workshops or training sessions.
• When creating events, you can create reusable “Locations” (see Locations section).

ONLINE GIVING

• Links to 3rd party giving platforms can now be used, although it does not integrate with People.

LOCATIONS

• We’ve implemented a new locations management tool. It’s not fully completed yet, but setting the “Primary” address now controls what is displayed on the Contact page.
• Parishes will soon be able to add multiple locations (ie. parishes, offices , rectories, etc.) so that all addresses will display on the Contact page.
• The tool integrates directly with Google Place IDs for precise map pins, and also with the Tilma Massfinder (where available).

NAVIGATION

• Redesigned Diocese Navigation - a huge change to the diocese navigation at the top of every site.

• Is now an expandable menu that can be seeded and edited from the diocese.
• Displays important diocese links, managed by the diocese so it updates all parish orgs.
• Displays parish Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube links, managed which by the parish in the Site Settings, as well as the parish’s main nav.

• Fixed missing mobile nav on certain parish sites.

GENERAL PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENTS AND FIXES

Release Notes: 1.0.0 - October 1, 2019

This is a HUGE update for Tilma. HUGE! We’re at 1.0!! This “get out of beta” release comes after getting a lot of amazing feedback from our clients on ways to continue making the platform work even better. This release is largely focused on the parish product, but there are fixes that users of the news product will notice, and there are updates in the code that can’t be seen. Upcoming releases will have more impact on the news product.

PLATFORM UPDATES

• If you had trouble searching before, either on the site or in the CMS, that should be improved now that we’ve updated Elastic Search to the latest version.
• Our page content editor contained an additional image editing tool that was recently put out to pasture by its creators, so we’ve replaced that image editing tool with a new one.
• We recently updated the CMS user interface, and since that launch, we’ve received amazing feedback from you and other users. We have heard your suggestions and made improvements to both the page and article editing workflows and improved the auto-saving.
• We fixed a bunch of things in Forms, like making the preview button work properly and adding Stripe payments capability, among some other smaller fixes.
• There used to be rogue HTML characters showing up on certain page titles, ministry pages, and event posts. After hunting them all down, we’ve fixed the code responsible and there are now no more rogue characters.
• You might not see it, but we cleaned up a bunch of old, dead code while also updating core parts of the entire platform’s underlying code, as well as adding more testing tools.

PARISH PRODUCT

• The user experience of setting up and managing online giving is now vastly improved after squishing a whole bunch of bugs.
• We’re doing a major overhaul of the Events tool. Some of the first fixes are now out with more fixes coming soon in future updates.
• We completely rebuilt the Sacraments tool from the bottom up. We added in a widget to display a parish’s confession times, and made it easier for parishes to make changes or be able to roll back to the default version.
• We’ve fixed a bunch of bugs that caused problems with assigning and managing admin permissions for accounts. It should also smooth out the creation of new parishioner accounts.
• Admins now have new or updated account management features:

• Parishes can now download CSV lists of their parishioner data.
• Accounts can now be used to login at multiple parishes.
• Pastor accounts can be transferred to another parish.
• Parishes can now use the platform’s account registration system to do parish membership registration too.

• We replaced some default images that contained people with illustrated images instead. We’ve also fixed a bunch of styling inconsistencies, like some button styles and fonts.
• Have made overall improvements to the mobile experience for parishioners.
• On parish homepages, the vision statement can be longer than before and the text will auto-fit into the existing spot. We’ve adjusted the events widget to show some resources if there are no events to display.

• A custom logo can be uploaded and put in place of the parish name in the navigation bar!

• Speaking of the navigation, we made the nav editor better.
• Pastors now have a Homily feed where they can publish and share their homilies. And if a pastor moves to another parish, their homily posts can be transferred along with them to the new parish site if they choose.
• Major improvements to the content feed tools give parishes better control over what content is displayed in various spots. And there are even bigger changes coming to this tool in the near future.
• We’ve created a single parish mode, making it easier for individual parishes anywhere to join the platform, even if their diocese isn’t part of it. This includes controls that can disable diocese-related navigation features that won’t apply to single parishes.

NEWS PRODUCT

• The external content feed import tool is now more stable, and we’ve made it smarter to find duplicates before the import even happens.
• In the Newsletter email tool, there’s now a send test email function to preview emails. Ads can now be included in email templates and managed in the Ad Manager.
• Lots of under the hood updates to support some upcoming new features.
