Paul, such a brilliant simple fix for a large oversight on my part. Your solution worked perfectly for me as you can see when using my dropdown menus. Thank you very much!

This appears to be an old problem. My research is that unfortunately with typical redirect managers such as the one in Squarespace you can't do a 301 redirect with pdfs. You can however change the link on the old site to any pdf to the matching pdf on the new site. This means leaving the old one up which may not be what you want to do. This forum thread may help you:

This is a second possible solution but a bit complicated:

If you read the comments you will find that renaming the links on the old location to the matching file's location on the second site is the most common way of doing it, it is not really a redirect of course. I personally would redirect all the pdfs on the old site to a page on the new site with an explanation of why they got there. This should allow you to take down the old site or work for you if the site is already down. 

You can move blog posts between blog pages. Simply create a new Blog page for the solutions and then move some of the existing posts.

I'm assuming that you are referring to the way the header has been offset from the edges and the width has been reduced on this Squarespace 7.1 site?
If you don't want the header to be full width, you can use CSS to set the width property of the header to something shorter, like this - width: 65%;. To add margin to the header, you'd add margin and specify the number of pixels. To apply these changes to the header, you'll use the header class (.header).
For example, add something like this to Design > Custom CSS: 
.header { width: 65% !important; margin: 17px !important; } If I've misunderstood the styles you were referring to, please let me know.

Set one blog up using summary blocks, set the other page up for full posts. Put the blog using the summary blocks as your front facing page into the unlinked section of your site. This way the settings for full page for one will not be seen on the other one. I don't have the full page option, no excerpts,  with my template but I wanted one blog to appear full screen as opposed to some posts showing up on blog list wall which the second blog page is set up to do using summary blocks, You can see the difference here and my design should certainly do what you want it to do.  
https://myrandomviews.com/blogsummary  Items with excerpts displayed as a grid or wall. 
https://myrandomviews.com/blog full screen blog posts (and your option would display the whole blog post not just an excerpt.  
My blog summary page is my front facing page and visitors don't see the same page displayed full screen as you can see it with a couple of exceptions such as this: https://myrandomviews.com/blog/category/Eighteen+Months
The above is a link on my nav bar to a series of posts.  You can explore my site and see what I have done with my summary blocks (which can display the whole post by the way, in multiple columns) I don't do that but I cauld if I wanted to.

You could contact Ghost Plugins and ask them, can't hurt. 

Lumi is a 7.1 Squarespace template built by Ghost Plugins. It can be purchased for a low price here:

Derrick, you are a genius! Allow anonymous posts was not selected and that was the problem. All is well now, hurray hurray!

Thank you so much for the tip!!

It looks like this problem has been solved the asset library allowed me to upload about 20 images all at once

Legacy personal plan has 20 page limit, but you can't change to a modern personal plan, that is not an upgrade due to the fact you lose complete customization with CSS (including page injection) and Javascript that the legacy personal plan has. Your only real choice if you need more pages is to switch to a business plan and then all coding options continue to work and you can have an unlimited number of pages. You can view a comparison chart, just scroll down and click on compare plans:
 https://www.squarespace.com/pricing

FYI, You can upgrade to the less expensive business plan, be billed for the difference in price,  and then downgrade back to the current personal. I don't recommend that workaround unless you are paying monthly. 
I am also up against the 20 page limit, but choose to stay with my legacy plan due to a lot of code on my site that would require a business plan to keep using if on the newer personal plan. 

There is no change template option in 7.1. In 7.1  each "template" is actually a design starting point. Using configuration style options, and a bit of work, any one of the 146 starting points can be made to look like any other. 7.0 could not do that due to the unique design options in each template, including those in the same family. There is no way to make Avenue look like Brine, for example, or you cannot make 7.0 Five look like 7.0 Wexley. With 7.1 the Five design is Vester and with a bit of tweaking, it can be made to look like 7.1's version of Wexley which is named Talva. 

I love this code, derricksrandomviews - thank you for bringing Christmas spirit to my webshop 🙂 www.bettybobbert.com

This tells you how to do it:
 

ah fair enough, maybe i was mistaken or using a different theme before.
Thanks for the insight : )

That works quite well for my case, thank you!
The Blog posts look a bit different than the layout I had planned, but I found a way to add the 3 smaller images with a lightbox. So that's a plus. Regular pages have a lot more customization though, like backgrounds, but I guess I'll keep it simple.


 

This seems like a blog page would be better suited for this than 300 pages. Blogs have unlimited number of posts and each post in effect have its own page with multiple sized image blocks. 

My pleasure to serve.
My only guess on why it manifested now after so long a time would be SS made some subtle changes to either the template or their backend.

It does show up white here as well, except for the powered by SS icon.
I'll dig in a bit and see what I can see.

Hi,
You can create a new page, use Summary Blocks to pull posts from blog page, then you can do this easier

I am not a big fan of the carousel design when using a gallery block, in 7.0 There are no crop options when that design is used. I prefer a slideshow, with or without auto transition between images. They look a lot better in my opinion. 

Creating a blog post archive this way sounds like a very good idea, thank you. I will definitely look into it. You can also make them into landing pages for specific marketing campaigns, which is also something I'm considering at the moment. 

You can also create a blog post archive in the unlinked section of your site. If using 7.1 you can duplicate any post to that blog and then delete it off your published site. The unlinked blog page doesn't have to be enabled for it to still work this way.
