This is the best Squarespace "help" video I've ever watched! Seriously. I've always wanted to change the look of my site but didn't know how. Finally, I've got some of my blog posts on my front page and my list-style blog is now a grid. I've only made some rough/basic changes as I need to go to work soon, but it looks way better. When I get home tonight I'll start planning to make some big changes. Thank you sooooooooo much. I'm really over the moon with this.
YAY so happy this was helpful! It's crazy how limited you can be with Squarespace but once you learn a few simple techniques or learn about a new block (eg the summary block) it can really change the game and open up a lot of new doors. Thanks for your comment!
@@BigCatCreative Just a follow-up. Since I got home last night, I've done nothing but this. Now, I'm really happy with how everything looks (it needs tweaks though). Even my wife says it looks good, and that was the first time she's ever said that (she's a harsh critic, which I appreciate). And, by using a summary block, my site not only looks better, but the speed of the site has also skyrocketed. That was a most unexpected bonus.
This is very good information considering I'm still on 7.0 for the moment. However, when you changed the URL Slug for the location of the archives does that have any negative effect on SEO? I suppose it's not like changing the slug for each post...
Great video thanks. I actually was looking for video how to add members areas as I want to sell my art online videos. So I thought this would be great as 7.0 has not transcript (I think its called) but now I can't make it visible. Do you have another video? Thanks
You are an angel.

It shouldn't have a negative effect. Just name it something appropriate and relevant as it will be in each post URL :)
I'm confused. You had us create all these "new page" pages in the index but never explained what we should do with them. Help!
