Like everyone else I am here to cope. I googled "squarespace is a literal nightmare" and this page was the first link that came up. I could go on and on especially about the time it takes me to drag things to the top of the page when Squarespace reorders them. The most recent thing Squarespace is doing is making the section HUGE and I mean HHUGE when I resize a picture. Usually I have to clear my cache and it's fixed but not this time. Guess I just have to deal with it?!?!?! 
Sometimes when I save changes, it scrolls to GOD KNOWS WHERE, and all I can see is a blank gray screen. I have to zoom out, scroll up and zoom back in. If I don't clear my cache first it will scroll back to the ether though. 
I will be pushing for WP conversion ASAP.
Thanks for the space to vent, I don't feel so alone or frustrated now!

After finding this page after an Internet search for "Squarespace randomly changes layout grid with Fluid Editor," and then feeling both buoyed and discouraged that so many others are having similar problems, I am compelled to echo everyone else's sentiment on this thread: Fluid Engine is a disaster and nightmare. Having been a Squarespace fan for years now, I am seriously debating going back to Wordpress, even despite how vulnerable it is to hacking.
On my coaching course's program page, every time I make a change, say, add a module or video, after carefully arranging blocks and setting spacing, when I revisit the page later on, nearly everything has shifted randomly (the neatly spaced line dividers now run through the middle of images, random spacing has been added, the block's height has changed, etc.). It looks worse than amateur, like possibly a blind man did the layout. And like others have noted on this thread, it has NOTHING to do with user error; I'm a competent enough website builder. Adding insult to outrage, the fact that the mobile view requires an entirely different configuration is yet another nightmare! It's such a cockup, in fact, I've told my clients apologetically that the course page doesn't work in mobile view due to Squarespace's new editor – because I'm not willing to entirely rebuild that page separately, AND continually monitor and adjust it due to the "phantom menace," as I call Fluid Engine.
Hello, Squarespace – not that anyone is listening – FIX your disastrous upgrade!!! 
 

Same, Trying to have filter options to organize my portfolio all on one page. Dont want to pay for a plug in/deal with code. Think this is something simple SS can implement?

Hello,
URL : www.wunderarchitectes.fr
I don't understand why the background video I uploaded (file, not youtube or vimeo link) on the header is in good quality on desktop and very low on mobile? Any help on how to address that?
Thanks!

Hi there,
I had an upload a video on my homepage (https://www.buildingpictures.pt/), and no matter what I do it becomes a low resolution. The video has the right settings: format MP4, 364,9 MB, and 59 seconds. Does anyone know why the quality comes out so bad? 
How can I improve this?
Appreciate any help.

Hi,
I want to change the fonts on the website https://www.kultursummit.at to locally hosted ones since google fonts are tricky with GDPR. I managed to do so for using this CSS code. But I don't know how I can do so for all the other elements, like Header navigation, forms, buttons and then for mobile as well. Can anybody help?

Thank you!!

I have ongoing email discussions with the support about this.
Currently it looks like that all fonts are loaded that are in the style guide.
So, if you change everything to Arial, which is an internal font, Google fonts are loaded if they are in the style guide.
Looks like in the attachment und er site styles / fonts
 
Currently, there is no option to remove fonts from the style guide.
Found this solution https://e2a.studio/squarespace-tips-how-tos/how-to-remove-unwanted-fonts-from-your-squarespace-website but it's a lot of work and didn't work for my template.
Still waiting for a solution from Squarespace to be able to use Sqauarespace legally in Germany....
I'll kepp you posted!
