Parish Field

How do we track which parish each adorer comes from?

Many chapels draw adorers from several surrounding parishes, which is a great way to grow your adoration program. You can track which parish each adorer belongs to.

This is accomplished with our Parish Field feature.

Enable this feature with the Allow adorers to provide their parish field at Admin » Settings » Onboarding.

Optionally, make this field required for new adorers (otherwise, they can leave it empty). Then, enter several options that adorers can select from. But you don't need to add every possible parish in your diocese! An "Other" option is available so adorers can enter a parish not listed here.

Parish Field settings — Enable the Parish Field feature

When an adorer is signing up (or editing their account), they will see a Parish field on the form:

Parish Field on the adorer form — Select an existing parish, or choose "Other"

If the adorer chooses Other, they can enter a parish different from those listed:

Other Parish field on the adorer form — Choose "Other" and enter a parish name

This parish field appears on the adorer's dashboard:

Parish Field on the dashboard page — The adorer's parish

You can find all adorers in a particular parish on the Adorers page by searching for the parish name. To make sure that you are only returning results that match the Parish field, use the special parish= prefix:
