While your parish may have a standard schedule for Mass, Confession, and other devotions, sometimes things change. The pastor goes on retreat, Christmas falls on a Sunday, or other events occur. Tilma makes it easy to add exceptions to your liturgical schedules.
Depending on your site setup and diocese, exceptions can be managed in several places and may need to be updated in multiple locations.
Identifying Where to Set Exceptions:
Site Settings: Site Content:
If your Mass Times page has a Mass-Times tag next to the title, edit your Mass Times in Site Settings.
Mass Times Module:
If your Mass Times page has a Landing Page tag next to the title, make changes in the Mass Times module.
If your diocese uses Tilma to power their Mass-Finder, use the Mass Times module for updates.
