Can I Create My Own Template in Squarespace?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 3:07 am

As a general rule, you cannot create your own template in Squarespace.

The only way to change how your site looks is to choose from one of the many templates Squarespace offers. To find the right template for your site, visit their Template Finder.

PRO TIP: Creating your own template in Squarespace can be a great way to get exactly the look and feel you want for your website. However, it’s important to be aware that there are some potential risks involved.

If you’re not careful, it’s possible to create a template that is incompatible with Squarespace’s code, which could cause your site to malfunction. Additionally, if you make changes to your template that are not carefully considered, you could end up breaking your site entirely.

Therefore, if you’re thinking about creating your own Squarespace template, it’s important to proceed with caution and make sure that you know what you’re doing. Otherwise, you could end up doing more harm than good.

While you cannot create your own template, you can customize the templates Squarespace offers. For example, you can change colors, fonts, layouts, and content.

If you want even more control over how your site looks, you can use CSS to make changes. You can learn more about CSS and how to use it on the Squarespace Developer Platform.

The bottom line is that if you want to use Squarespace to build a website, you’ll need to use one of their templates. However, you can customize that template to make it look the way you want.
