  1. melody495's post in Heading and site body not aligned on wide monitor was marked as the answer   
    For higher resolution/wider screens, I would recommend setting your page width to be 1920px minimum. This general responds better. 
    But do you need to accommodate for wider screens? Is your target audience typically using a wide screen?
    As much as you can try and optimise for all screen sizes, it wouldn't be possible as there are a lot of them. The best thing to do is optimise for your target audience. 
  2. melody495's post in REQUEST : Ability to select images from Library in post Settings was marked as the answer   
    Hi, I'm assuming you are using a blog? If so, you don't have to upload an image into the page setting. You can choose from your asset library. 
    Please see the answer here, and has screenshots of where to find the button to find image from your asset library. 
    Let me know how it goes. 
  3. melody495's post in Page Name Not Displaying Correctly was marked as the answer   
    To change the title of your browser tab, you will need to change the SEO title. 
    Under Page Settings > SEO > title. 
    This is the same title that will show on search engine results. (Might show, Google decides what to show)
    Let me know how it goes.
  4. melody495's post in How to reduce the space between the header and the grid of content in the upper most section? was marked as the answer   
    Hi @Hominis You want to edit your Section height, not the Header height.
    Your section height is currently set to Large. You can change this by going to
    Hover over the section > click Edit Section > under Design > change between S/M/L from Height
    Alternatively, if you don't want any padding above and below your section, you can toggle off Fill Screen.
    Let me know how it goes.

  5. melody495's post in Copying content block from one page to another was marked as the answer   
    There are two built-in ways to copy Blocks.
    1. Using Saved Sections as CassAggett has described
    2. You can use the keyboard shortkey CTRL+C and CTRL+V (CMD+C and CMD+V for ios). This works for the same page or across different pages.

    There is a third way, but it involves a third-party paid chrome extension SquareTool Extension Pro. This additionally allows you to copy across different Squarespace websites, as well as a bunch of other features. It's probably an overkill if you are only looking to copy a Block.
    Let me know how it goes.
  6. melody495's post in How do I stop the "Meet Our Team" bio's from making the layout wonky? was marked as the answer   
    It is a bit hidden away, but you can choose the vertical alignment option under Edit.
    Edit Content > Design > Size & Space > Position. Change the selection from "middle" to "top", the left most icon.
    Let me know how it goes.

     
  7. melody495's post in Change blog publish date to UK format was marked as the answer   
    Yes! Your site-wide date format is controlled by the language setting:
    Go to Settings > Site languages > under LANGUAGE/REGION (or use “/” to search for it) Select English (United Kingdom) Click “Save” You can see step-by-step with screenshots in my blog post How to change the date format from US to UK
    The other issue you might notice is that you can't change the date format to how you like it. e.g. DD/MM/YY or dd mm yyyy. There isn't a way to do that in Squarespace, but you can use @Beyondspace's free tool. You'll need business plan or above.
    You can see how I used it in my blog post Top tip for changing the date format of blogs
    Let me know how it goes.
  8. melody495's post in Sitemap "Couldn't Fetch" Issue was marked as the answer   
    I can't tell from the screenshot if there are other things going on with the setup of your Google Search Console, but I normally see the domain url under "Add a new sitemap".
    Here is what I mean, instead of inputting the entire url into the box (which you have done), normally would only need to put "/sitemap.xml" because Google knows which domain you are referring to and prepends your domain url before the input box. 
    And under "Submitted sitemap", I would see "/sitemap.xml" instead of the full url. 
    I think, maybe you've selected the domain property rather than the website property. Check the drop down in the top left hand corner. 
    Edit: 
    Re SEO, btw I had a look, and your website is indexed by Google i.e. your website can appear in Google search results. If you are struggling with being seen, then you need to review your SEO strategy and see how to achieve what you are looking for. 
  9. melody495's post in Custom font suddenly not working was marked as the answer   
    It seems like your CSS code is being overridden by Squarespace's h1 font-family setting.
    Add !important and it should work again, from this:
    h1 { font-family: 'ROCA'; } to this
    h1 { font-family: 'ROCA'!important; } Add this for all custom font CSS declaration.
  10. melody495's post in HTML CODE TO INSERT YEAR THAT IS MISSING IN THE BLOG was marked as the answer   
    Yes I know your pain 🙃 There is a free plugin you can use to manage date format (you'll need business plan or above to use it).
    Here is the free plugin by Beyond space https://www.beyondspace.studio/customise-squarespace-date-format/?ref=mtofgbrf
    I have a blog post that describes how to use it Change date format of blogs in Squarespace
    Hope this helps. Let me know how it goes.
  11. melody495's post in Problems with code on Custom front CCS. was marked as the answer   
    This is the font file path you have used
    /borna-regular-webfont.ttf This file path is likely incorrect. 
    You should upload your font file to Custom File, then use that file path.
  12. melody495's post in domains are not currently supported was marked as the answer   
    Hi @kimjakobsen When associating your Squarespace website to a third-party domain, you have two options:
    1) Transfer the domain from your third-party provider to Squarespace.
    2) Connect your third-party domain to your Squarespace site without moving the domain host.
    In the case of https://www.rehab-golf.dk/ , this domain is hosted by Dan domains, so in this case you have connected your domain to that Squarespace website. Your domain is still with a third-party provider (Dan domains).
    In your new/current case, given you don't have to option to transfer your domain to Squarespace, you can choose "Connect Domain".
    Hope this helps.
  13. melody495's post in Blog - comments not public? was marked as the answer   
    @Tartaruga You can make it so that comments have to be approved by you before showing.  That way you can still see them, but if you don't approve, they won't show on the blog publicly.
    You can find more details on Squarespace's website Managing blog comments
     
  14. melody495's post in Summary block not appearing on www.unpackedshanghai.com was marked as the answer   
    What do you see when you try these steps?
    on your homepage, click Edit > hover over the relevant section, click Add Block > type in the search bar "Summary".
     

  15. melody495's post in How to get even spacing with Fluid Engine on 7.1? was marked as the answer   
    Hi @ockpii This is how you've setup your grid setting. There are 2 columns between your images on the left and on the right. If you would like a smaller vertical gap. I would suggest 
    1) place your image blocks next to each other, i.e. without any space
    2) change your grid setting, use the horizontal padding to set out how much space you would like to have between your images on the left and right. Likewise the same for vertical padding for space between images on the top and bottom
    Let me know how it goes.

  16. melody495's post in Changing the Squarespace allocated domain... was marked as the answer   
    Hi @AmbientLife, Collaborada's article explains it well! Just to expand on this point. When creating links internally in your website, it is best practice to use "/page_to_link_to", instead of providing a static URL like "https://www.xyz.com". 
    So if you have used static URLs to your built-in domain in your website, then yes it will break those links when you change your built-in domain. However, if you don't have any static URLs referring to your built-in domains, then you shouldn't suffer from any broken links.
  17. melody495's post in transformation txt was marked as the answer   
    @MaryLou You are very welcome, glad it's all working! Haha, don't worry, you are not alone in this, we all make mistakes like this 😄 Thank you.
  18. melody495's post in Experimenting with Site Styles was marked as the answer   
    Yes 🙂 This is a good way to show your client the new changes, for discussion and approval as well. For any big changes like Site Styles, I would recommend duplicating anyway to keep the site live and a backup copy as safekeeping.
  19. melody495's post in adding text without a field in forms was marked as the answer   
    @KifS is this what you are looking for?
     
  20. melody495's post in YOUR CONNECTION IS NOT PRIVATE - I can't seem to fix this was marked as the answer   
    How did you set up Servies under Navigation? If you look at the URL in the browser after clicking Services, you will see the URL is "services", it is missing your domain entirely and, therefore doesn't know what to return. It doesn't look like it was set up correctly.
    To confirm, your service page does exist, if you click here you can see it working correctly https://www.designlyonco.com/services.
  21. melody495's post in Help! Why Custom CSS Section Greyed Out? was marked as the answer   
    Hi @jordancotton When you say greyed out, do you mean you 1)can't interact with the panel or that  2) you can type in it but that the code remains in a grey colour?
    If it is 2), then there seems to be an opening of a comment here. This will comment out i.e. grey out everything that is within the opening and closing of the pair. This opens a comment "/*", this closes the comment "*/". Look for "*/" further down, possibly at the very end? Delete "/*" and "*/" and you should have the CSS code working again.
    Let me know how it goes.

  22. melody495's post in Stick "toghether" two element so that they do not overlap was marked as the answer   
    Hi @Oukside I like what you've done with them!
    You can try extending the button block to align with the bottom of the text block, so that the bottom of both blocks are on the same row. So that when they reach the bottom of the section, they are moved up together at the same height. Hope this makes sense.
    If not already, change the button to "fit" under Design. Let me know how it goes.

  23. melody495's post in Event carousel summary that doesn't click through won't scroll was marked as the answer   
    Hi @AgnesK the block refers to the whole summary block including the left and right arrows. You can use this to target just the items in the summary block. 
    div#block-927ca40df0644d9749a7 .summary-item-list { pointer-events: none; } Let me know how it goes.
     

     

  24. melody495's post in Make row invisible with CSS (display: none;) - how to make it work was marked as the answer   
    Ah yes. That id is dynamic, so you can't use that. I would recommend making that row into a section on its own, then you can target the static section id. 
    There is a chrome plugin called Squarespace ID Finder that can help you easily get the id of a block, section, page(collection).
    Hope this helps!
  25. melody495's post in Different hero image on desktop and mobile was marked as the answer   
    Yep! You want to adjust the background-size to how you want the image to fit that section.
    You can try this, this means to set the background to be width=auto, height=100% of the section.
    background-size: auto 100%; You then might want to add this line depending on how you want your image to look
    background-position: xxxxxx; center, top, center top etc... more here https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_background-position.php, but let me know how it goes.
