How Do I Change the Background on Squarespace?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 6:31 am

One of the great things about Squarespace is that it offers a wide range of customization options to help you create a unique website that reflects your brand. One way you can customize your site is by changing the background.

There are a few different ways to change the background on Squarespace. You can either use a background image or color, or you can select one of Squarespace’s pre-made background patterns.

If you want to use a background image, simply go to the Design tab and click on “Change Background Image.” Then, upload the image you want to use. You can adjust the opacity, alignment, and other settings as well.

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with code or website design, we strongly recommend against trying to change the background on your Squarespace website. While it is possible to do so with some basic knowledge, it is very easy to make mistakes that could break your website.

If you want to use a color for your background, go to the Design tab and click on “Change Background Color.” Then, select the color you want to use from the color picker. You can also enter in a Hex code if you know the exact color you want to use.

Finally, if you want to use one of Squarespace’s pre-made background patterns, go to the Design tab and click on “Change Background Pattern.” Then, select the pattern you want to use from the list.

No matter which method you choose, changing the background on Squarespace is easy and only takes a few minutes. So experiment with different options until you find something that looks great and reflects your brand well.
