First of all. The colors are POPPIN and I'm gonna need you to show us how to color grade like that. Second, thanks for actually jumping straight into the tutorial. Will be coming back to this whenever I get back to a squarespace site. Lastly, the editing is 👌🏼
ah thank you for saying all of this! you know what's funny I actually didn't color grade at all this video ! I think it might be the first video that I didn't try to color grade 😅 so that's good feedback for me, maybe I don't need to put so much effort into color grading after all because it turns out better when I don't haha
I really like your style of teaching. Most TH-cams for learning Squarespace are just too fast. They talk fast and move fast, I think it must be because it’s routine for them. So thank you for this one. I’m going to subscribe.
@@NZHeike it’s crazy! They talk so fast bc they already know how to do it. As I watch some of these so called beginner website TH-cams I just keep thinking, TAKE A BREATH!
@@jenwebbcreates I’m still stuck with how to keep the pages of my existing website while adding a new front to it. I don’t want to deactivate those links to any of it. I just want them to be secondary. I want a new face with my new art but keep the existing website with my older art still being available to see.
PS I have a Squarespace website that I created maybe 7 years ago. I’ve forgotten everything. I’m wondering if it’s possible to put my existing website in back pages? I want to focus on new art and create a fresh look, and add almost a new website on top of it. I don’t want to get rid of the first one. Ohh I must be on the old version! Oh dear.
yes you can essentially "archive" the old pages by just dragging those pages out of the main navigation, removing any links to them, and creating brand new pages. you could even go into the page settings and disable the page (after they are moved out of the main navigation) to make sure nobody accidentally stumbles on them
@ wait. What? The thing is, I don’t want to deactivate those links. If that’s the case, the only way I can keep them, I’ll need to create a whole new website for my new stuff. This is kind of a bummer. There must be a way to keep them but create new pages as well. Hummm.
@@Kathysart sorry I think I misunderstood what you were wanting. You can definitely keep all your old pages and just create new pages too. Is the issue that you want to upgrade your site to the newer version of Squarespace (7.1) but also want to keep the old pages that are the older version (7.0)? If so you can follow this article on how to upgrade to the newer version: support.squarespace.com/hc/en-us/articles/360038270572-Moving-from-Squarespace-version-7-0-to-version-7-1 But you don't have to upgrade to 7.1, you can just keep the version you have now and add new pages to it.
@@jenwebbcreates Yes, I have tried it, I think that the Squarespace interface is focused on designers. Webflow is the same as NoCode but I think you should know a little more about structure, HTML and CSS
No, only on 7.1. I wish Squaredspace just a a update button and make it simple to transfer. I've been using 7.0 for for 5 years already and is so old. Hopefully Jen can make a video on it sometime in the future.
I have a 16-inch 2023 macbook pro with 32gb of memory and Apple M2 Max chip, I think it cost $3,500 when I bought it. which I know is quite pricey, but I expect this laptop to last me a longg time, which is why I splurge on getting the best specs possible.
they give you a 14 day free trial when you first create your website, basically to test out the platform and see if you'd want to make your website on squarespace. I don't think the expectation is that you have to complete the website within the trial period - when the trial expires, your website will still be there. You just have to either extend the trial, or start paying for it, in order to keep working on it. Once you start paying for it, you'll also be able to publish your website for the world to see. During the free trial, your site will still be private. To extend the trial, you can either contact squarespace support and request that they extend it (they'll also send you emails when your website is expiring asking if you need more time), or you can use the method I mentioned in the video which I think is more of a secret hack and might not work forever. I agree that it's frustrating to have to keep extending your trial, which is why I'd just start paying for it if you know you're definitely going to launch this website. sorry I should have explained this better in the video 😅
It's rare to find videos like this on TH-cam. Thank you! ❤❤
Currently learning how to use Squarespace and stumbled upon this video.

Totally agree. Most are way too fast, especially when you are not an English native speaker.
thank you! I'm glad it was helpful to you 😊 let me know if there's anything specifically you'd like to see in future videos/tutorials!

Which is better develop my wevlbsite using Squarespace or using web design and developing languages ?
squarespace is definitely easier than building a website from scratch
I wish you can do a video on version 7.0 to 7.1, I'm scare of touching developer mode and losing stuff even though is backed up on Github, help lol.
Hello, you got talent
what do you think of Webflow instead Squarespace?
I personally haven't tried it! have you?
@@jenwebbcreates Yes, I have tried it, I think that the Squarespace interface is focused on designers. Webflow is the same as NoCode but I think you should know a little more about structure, HTML and CSS
is section feature like adding sections avaialble Squarespace 7.0?
No, only on 7.1. I wish Squaredspace just a a update button and make it simple to transfer. I've been using 7.0 for for 5 years already and is so old. Hopefully Jen can make a video on it sometime in the future.
Can you tell me the type of your Mac and how much it costs you ?

i dont understand the trail thing like how do i get this done without using a template that will ultimately expire its so frustrating.
