How to Use Member Areas in Squarespace

When you create a new Squarespace account, you are automatically given the option to create a member area. A member area is a special section of your website that is separate from your public website.

You can use member areas to share your work with only your selected audience, and keep your public website clean and simple.

To create a member area in Squarespace, first click on the Account menu item in the upper left corner of the home screen. From the Account menu, select Member Areas.

Next, click on the Add New Member Area button.

In the Member Area Description field, you can write a short description of your member area. In the Member Area Name field, you can name your member area. In the Member Area Access Level field, you can choose whether members of your member area have full access to all content in the member area, or only limited access.

In the Member Area Website URL field, you can enter the URL of your public website. In the Member Area Privacy Policy field, you can write a description of the privacy policy for your member area.

PRO TIP: If you are not a member of a site, you will not be able to access the member areas.

Click on the Create Member Area button.

Your new member area will now appear in the Member Areas section of the home screen. You can now start sharing content in your member area!

To access content in your member area, members must first log into their Squarespace account. Once they have logged in, they will be able to view content and make comments.

To manage content in your member area, members can click on the Edit link next to any post. They will then be able to delete posts, add more images and videos, and change the privacy policy for the member area.

Members can also invite friends to join the member area, and share content in the member area with their friends.

Conclusion

Member areas are a great way to share your work with only your selected audience, and keep your public website clean and simple. Members can view content, make comments, and manage content in the member area.
