Hi there 🙂 Our team is working on migrating our main website from Squarespace to Shopify. I'm hoping to get some advice here about the migration process. I've through the posts in the community here but have not found what I was looking for. Apologies if there is a post answering those questions that I would have missed! We do have a store on our website, but we don't have many products, so moving the store is not an issue for us. However, the main bulk of the website is pages and blogs, for a total of around 600 pages. Here are my questions: - how would you go about migrating an entire website from Squarespace to Shopify? - I've heard about LitExtension, that would allow us to move our products and our blog. Do you have any experience with them migrating a blog? - what about other pages (other than product pages and blogs). Is there a thrid-party tool that is available for that? Or any other method? Or are we better off re-creating everything manually? Thanks a lot for your help, I look forward to hearing from you! Quentin

Hi all, Just read all the comments on this thread and was wondering if, as of today, any of you has a workaround this or knows about an easy solution to implement on Squarespace to create a working search site bar? Third-party apps seem to be very expensive (prices going up with number of pages indexed) and cheap solutions like Google Programmable Search Engine have ads on them. I don't know what to do anymore to get a functional search bar on my site! If anyone has a solution, please let me know 🙂 Thanks!

All good, I have found a solution. In case anyone is experiencing the same issue, here is how to do it: remove the config tag in GTM altogether and just have the regular event tags where you manually set the measurement ID in them. Works perfectly this way 🙂

Hi everyone, I am trying to setup that GA4 using the combination of built-in Squarespace integration (to track the purchase easily) and GTM (to track other events). However I am facing issues with implementing both. It seems that adding the GTM container prevents the built-in from working. I've been trying to solve this all last week and I'm really struggling. 1. When having only Squarespace built-in integration I can see pageview events using TagAssistant and I can also see purchase event (using GA debugger). 2. When having only GTM container installed with "send pageview event" enable I can see pageview events using TagAssistant. No purchase since not implemented in GTM, so that's normal 3. When adding both build-in and GTM on the website and disabling the "send pageview event" on GTM I cannot see pageview events anymore in TagAssistant (neither when using Google Analytics Debugger) and I don't see them either in my GA4 property debug view, except when I enable the "send pageview event" in the GTM tag, which I don't think I should since I already have the pageview in the built-in. I cannot see the purchase event anymore (neither TagAssistant or GA debugger). Other GTM tags are firing OK so it seems that it's the built-in that doesn't work anymore when GTM container implemented. Would there be a way to make that implementation combination work? Really grateful if @GlynMusica or anyone else has input regarding this! Thank you, Quentin

Hi @GlynMusica, Thank you for your reply. Yes, this is exactly what I'm trying to do. Happy to read that this has been done before with UA! Thanks for confirming the way to avoid duplicated page view events. I wonder if doing so will also prevent duplication of the new enhanced measurements from GA4 (scroll, site search, outbound clicks...) or only of the pageview event? I should start implementing this setup next week, so I will let you know how it goes after I test it properly. Thanks again! Quentin

Hi @GlynMusica, Thank you for taking the time to answer. What I am trying to do is the following: the client I am working with has their website on Squarespace, with a store. I would like to setup the GA4 configuration so that I am able to capture e-commerce values on the checkout page. My understanding is that, as you mention, the GTM code will not fire on the checkout page. Which is why I want to implement GA4 using Squarespace built-in integration. However, I would also like to be able to use GTM on the other pages for tracking other custom events, which is easier for me to use. My plan was then to use the following configuration: implementing GA4 on Squarespace using the built-in integration (allowing me for e-commerce tracking on checkout page) but also implementing GTM code on all other pages. I assume that by doing so, I would get duplicate data for PageView and other enhanced measurements. Would I be able to work around that issue by disabling the “Send a page view event when this configuration loads » on the GA4 config tag in GTM? See picture below. Would my setup work correctly using the method I just described? I hope I managed to explain myself more clearly 🙂 Thanks a lot if you can help, that feels a bit complicated for me! Quentin

Hi everyone, I've gone through the many posts about GTM implementation but I cannot find an answer to my question. I hope somebody can help me here 🙂 Since Squarespace does not support GTM implementation on the checkout page, I had used a little trick with UA so that Squarespace sends PageView and eCommerce, while still being able to use GTM for more behavioral tracking. Basically I have used a combination of GTM tracking and Squarespace tracking with gtag: - I’ve added UA tracking code in Squarespace settings and enabled eCommerce tracking in my UA view - and in my GTM container I’ve paused the tag that’s sending « Page View » data into UA so that I don’t get double data for Page View My question is the following: would I still be able to use that method with GA4? What Event would I need to disable/modify in my GTM container so that I don’t get double data for Page View? Thanks a lot if anyone can help! Quentin
