One Forms list displays published parish forms. Supported metadata is rendered in the app, with an external-provider fallback for unsupported questions.
Join the parish and open More → Parish → Forms.
Choose a form, complete supported questions and submit once.
For a form marked Open on website, continue with its provider.
What to know
After a submission timeout, ask the parish before resubmitting. Draft and archived forms are not public.
During the open beta, a verified administrator can register and configure a parish without payment. The future Starter/Pro tiers are prepared but billing is deferred.
Open the portal registration page, create an administrative account and verify its email.
Enter the parish name and unique identifier and confirm authorization to represent it. Optionally enter a mission/pilot code.
Complete required configuration; the backend publishes the parish automatically once ready.
Confirm the portal says billing deferred / open beta. No card or payment provider is required.
What to know
Billing activation later requires owner configuration and an explicit subscription checkout; no parish is charged automatically.
Parish registration is free during beta. Starter at $10/month and Pro at $19.99/month are planned subscriptions; guided setup is a separate optional service.
Use your parish workspace free during the current beta. No subscription payment is required.
Visit Parish Plans for future Starter and Pro pricing; the website does not currently collect a subscription payment.
Choose free self-service setup or request optional guided setup for $200 one time. Your request does not authorize a charge.
What to know
Moving from beta to a paid subscription will require a clear activation choice. Owner-authorized mission exemptions can continue when subscriptions launch.
Free self-service setup remains available. Optional guided setup costs $200 one time and includes configuration, training, a phone notification check, a quick-start guide and one follow-up.
Open Guided Setup from the website footer or Parish Plans page and review the included service.
Enter your contact name, email, parish and any useful context in the private request form. Do not include passwords or payment details.
Acknowledge the one-time fee and submit your inquiry. No session is booked and no payment is taken by the form.
Wait for personal follow-up to agree on the scope, timing and payment arrangements before the service begins.
What to know
The $200 service is separate from future monthly subscriptions. You may continue configuring your parish yourself at no setup charge.
The platform owner can provide a single-use code for an authorized mission, pilot or other exempt parish; parish admins cannot waive their own bills.
Request a free-registration code from the platform owner or your authorized diocesan contact for a permanent mission exemption.
Register using your verified administrative email and enter the code.
Complete required configuration and confirm the portal shows exempt status.
What to know
Codes may expire or be restricted to a parish or email. Do not publish them. Exempt parishes receive Pro-level announcement access without subscription payment.
What to know
During open beta, registration is already free; a mission exemption records eligibility for continued free access after billing activation.
Only authorized parish staff can send, and recipients must have joined that same parish with the selected category enabled.
Open Notifications and choose an active category.
Enter the title/body and review the preview and allowance before confirming.
Send once and inspect campaign history and receipt results.
What to know
Submitted is not proof a notification was displayed. Never send again with a new identifier after an uncertain timeout without reviewing history. Scheduled announcements are not implemented in this release.
Privileged roles are assigned through invitations tied to verified email identities, never by an anonymous installation ID.
Open Team and enter the intended person’s email and admin or staff role.
Share the generated invitation securely with that person.
They sign in with that verified email and accept before management access appears.
What to know
Parish admins cannot grant platform owner access or permissions for another parish. Review and revoke invitations or team access when it is no longer needed.
Ordinary users provide installation participation and preferences, while administrative accounts and parish subscriptions carry separate personal and billing information.
Open Settings → Privacy for the current policy.
Review notification and optional diagnostic preferences.
Use the private problem-report flow for platform questions, avoiding sensitive screenshots.
What to know
Historic directory records are preserved but unavailable through the active app/API; retention or deletion requests are handled separately.
Start with your connection, selected parish and phone settings. Report any persistent problem privately so we can help.
If Join fails, check your connection, refresh parish search and try again.
If notifications are missing, confirm the parish is joined, the category is enabled, and your phone allows notifications for Cupola Connect.
For a missing calendar or outdated parish information, contact your parish administrator. For portal sign-in, verify your email and use the invited address.
Use More → Settings → Help / Report a problem to share the screen, error and steps. Include screenshots only after removing private details.
