Thanks for your input Ziggy! You're right - I was onto SS support and they confirmed that you can't download videos from the asset library and the original files must be found elsewhere... Will see if I can find a solution through a Chrome extension though! 

Hello! I am currently building out an updated website for a client who is migrating from 7.0 to 7.1. This involves the transfer of several image and video galleries. While the image files and embedded videos streamed from youtube etc. are no problem, it does not seem possible to download video/mp4 files from the asset library/current website. It will save a lot of time for my client if I can access these video files directly. Does anybody know if I'm missing something or is there a workaround for this? Many thanks.
 

Thank you so much Ziggy, that worked! : ) 
Just a pity we can't seem to have. a masonry gallery mobile view that works the same way as in a grid gallery in mobile so images show in the order they're supposed to...  But this one-column solution is brilliant for now! 🙏

Try this Custom CSS:
@media screen and (max-width: 767px) { .gallery-masonry-wrapper.gallery-masonry-list--ready { height: auto !important; columns: 1 !important; } .gallery-masonry-item img { width: 100% !important; } }  

I'd also love the background gallery functionality from 7.0 to be added back into 7.1. Adding static text or other content over a slideshow background is such a common request.
Anyway, after much trial and error I've found a solution that - while not perfect - does the trick.
Create a gallery section. Set the gallery type to to Slideshow:Full. Set the section height, hide the controls and turn autoplay on. Create a second section that sits below the gallery section. Set the section height the same as the gallery section. Don't upload any background images, videos or art. Add your text/button/content. Add the following code to CSS, replacing the section id number with those of your second section. If you don't already have a Chrome extension to help you quickly see section and block ID's, I can recommend Squarespace ID Finder by Heather Tovey.  body:not(.sqs-edit-mode-active) section[data-section-id="60bd6308fec0673d7ddd4a41"] {   position: relative !important;   margin-top: -100vh !important;   background-color: transparent !important;   .section-background {     background-color: transparent !important;   } } Basically, it removes any background colour from your content section and moves it up to sit over the gallery section. It doesn't apply in editing mode, so all content remains easily editable. It should work on all screen sizes, but let me know if it's not scaling correctly.
It's a hack that we shouldn't need - but for now, I hope it helps someone.

Hello! I have just had to do the same thing for a website and found the solution here:
https://sirv.com/help/articles/hover-change-image/
A bit of a different approach to yours as you're putting the images into code containers rather than as a swappable block.
The <style> code must go into the advanced section of your page's settings rather than the css injection section.
And then you create a code block with the relevant image urls from your asset library (copy image address rather than the url for the image in your library) and the destination url you want to click to...
Maybe you've found a solution by now but hope this helps, if not you, someone else in future!

We currently don't have that functionality as far as I'm aware, the asset library is pretty new, and will undoubtedly get more functionality in time.
There are a number of Chrome extensions that could help with downloading images/videos for pages, not sure about all from a website, but the sitemap could help.

Hi Paul, Thank you so much for your response and suggestion!
I didn't realise that these new layouts would override style settings... Your CSS snippet seems to have worked wonderfully! It looks so much better now, many thanks.
 

When you are using the 'Simple' Product Detail Page (PDP) layout you can set the style of the item name within the Site Styles panel:

However, I see that you are using one of the newer PDP layouts ('Full'). Squarespace designers decided that these layouts would have fixed designs and so the site styles do not affect them. The heading size is calculated according to the browser width.
In theory you could use some CSS to try to modify the font manually but, in all honesty, I don't recommend it as it could layout issues for visitors on some devices.
However, if you want to try it, here's an example...
.pdp-layout .pdp-details .pdp-details-title {   font-size: 32px; } Did this help? Please give feedback by clicking an icon below  ⬇️

Thanks Paul! I seem to have had very good luck in the past with this situation then but today this was not  the case unfortunately! Squarespace Support have checked and confirmed it's gone... It had expired for over a year in fairness.

Hello, does anyone know who I can contact to retrieve the content of an expired Squarespace site? A project I started for a client over a year ago had to be paused as they had to supply the text, which they didn't do until this week. I paid to reactivate the site earlier (the thumnail image on my dashboard gave the impression that the content was still there) and am devastated to see that all the pages are GONE! I have emailed Squarespace Support only to be told that content is deleted after 30 days. However, that has not been the case in the past with other expired projects I have brought back to life. Does anyone know if there is any particular person or technical department within Squarespace I can contact who can actually check the servers and try and help me restore the website? Otherwise I will have lost about 60 hours of work as well as the structure of how I laid out the website content in the first place... Any advice would be much appreciated.
