Installation

  1. Upload the church_admin directory to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
  3. Place [church_admin type=address-list member_type_id=# map=1 photo=1] on the page you want the address book displayed, member_type=1 for members, map=1 toshow map for geocoded addresses. The member_type_id can be comma separated e.g. member_type_id=1,2,3
  4. Place [church_admin type=small-groups-list] on the page you want the small group list displayed
  5. Place [church_admin type=small-groups ] on the page you want the list of small groups and their members displayed
  6. Place [church_admin type=rota] on the page you want the rota displayed
  7. Place [church_admin type=calendar category=# weeks=#] on the page you want a page per month calendar displayed
  8. Place [church_admin type=calendar-list] on the page you want a agenda view calendar – option category and weeks options pastable from category admin page
  9. There is a calendar widget with customisable title, how many events you want to show and an option for it to look like a post-it note
  10. Place [church_admin_map member_type_id=#] to show a map of colour coded small groups – need to set a service venue first to centre map and geolocate member’s addresses by editing them.
    We recommend password protecting the pages – if it is password protected, a link is provided to logout
    The # should be replaced with which member types you want displayed as a comma separated list e.g. member_type=1,2

I am just starting to tap this plugin's capabilities for our church. The more I learn about it, the more impressed I become. It quickly became obvious that Andy isn't just a software developer, but also someone who truly understands the needs of a church organization with regard to creating a web presence. But what impresses me most is Andy's responsiveness in supporting his plugin users. For example last night before I went to bed, I sent an email to Andy noting a formatting issue with the member registration form, and by the time I got home from work this evening, Andy had put out a new update that resolves the problem. That's only one of several issues he's quickly helped me out with. Those other issues were my own user problems not issues with the plugin code. Andy and this plugin are responsive to the nth degree. Love it.

WP-Church Admin This is a great ministry providing tools to help administer small to medium size church at no cost (aside from a one-time fee if you would like to also include the Mobile App) The author continues to improve and enhance the features and functionality and is open to suggestions to improve it even further. I can't recommend the plugin highly enough and am thankful to Our Lord for providing such a dedicated working in Andy Moyle (the author) for the blessing this is to the church.

I am afraid I cannot see where all the good reviews are coming from. Simply activating this plugin reduces your page speed by at least 60%. The use of tables and frames makes styling difficult.

This plugin is simply amazing and is constantly getting updates/improvements. Having tried pretty much every other option out there, I can tell you that the plugin has everything you might need - without the crazy prices or security concerns that seem to come with other developer offerings. Until I found "Church Admin", the other plugins I tried either had some shady code embedded or they were unbelievably out of our price range. This one is highly customizable with fantastic development support. Sign up for the Andriod/IOS app to support the developer! You will not be disappointed.

We were looking for something more than just using a sermon browser plugin to post our latest talks at church. Andy Moyle has created a fantastic all in one product that serves the majority of backend church administration. From displaying your latest sermons to having a fully fledged member directory this is my favourite of all plugins I've ever used. Great support from Andy and regular updates.
