Acuity Scheduling
Summary email only sent if you have appointments
To prevent cluttering your inboxes, you’ll now only receive weekly summary emails if you have appointments that week. Weekly summary emails are enabled by default, but you can disable them in the Booking Alerts panel.
Learn more about weekly summary emails.
Bio Sites
Grow your mailing lists from your Bio Site
With Unfold Pro, you can now encourage people to subscribe to your mailing list with the new Mailing List section. You can export captured email addresses as .csv and then import them into Squarespace Email Campaigns or any other email marketing service that supports .csv imports.
Learn more about Mailing List sections.
Commerce
Create and sell online courses with Squarespace
Create online courses with the new Course collection page. Course pages have a two-part structure to keep your content organized: the course overview page and the individual lesson pages in the course. They also include a progress bar to keep your students motivated.
Learn more about Courses. Watch the Create and sell online courses with Squarespace webinar.
Selling digital products with Squarespace
Digital products include course pages, member sites (formerly known as Member Areas), and video pages. You can now use pricing plans to place your products behind a paywall and bundle different digital products on your site. You can charge customers for access to your content, or you can offer free access which makes visitors create an account for your site’s gated content.
For example, you can create a single pricing plan and bundle access to a course page and a member site into it.
Learn more about courses pages, member sites, and pricing plans.
Merchandise your digital products with the digital product block
Use the new digital product block to merchandise your pricing plans throughout your site.
Learn more about digital product blocks.
Add to cart directly from your store page
You can now enable Add To Cart buttons on your store page so customers can quickly grab items without clicking into product details pages. Products with one variant will display Add To Cart, and products with multiple variants will display View Options.
Enable the add to cart button from the Format tab of your store’s section styles.
Learn more about enabling add to cart buttons on your store page.

Follow-up email: Engage customers if they haven’t made a purchase in a set amount of time.
Repeat customer email: Reward loyal customers by sending a discount email after a repeat purchase.
VIP email: Connect with customers after they’ve spent a certain amount.

Unfold
One-tap background removal
With Unfold Pro, you can now remove photo backgrounds with one-tap… just like magic. You can use this to tidy up product images or to create dynamic backgrounds by layering images over other elements.. If you don’t have Unfold Pro, you remove the background from three images three times before upgrading.

Websites and domains
Delete customer profiles
To give you more control over your CRM efforts, you can now delete customer profiles from the Profiles panel. To delete, click on the profile and then click Delete Profile.
Learn more about deleting customer profiles.
Domains panel redesign and domain forwarding
We’ve refreshed the look of the Domains panel to help you better manage your domains. We’ve also added support for 301 redirects, 302 redirects, and path forwarding to the panel.
In addition to managing your domains from your website, you can now manage your domain’s settings right from the Domains tab of your account dashboard. That means you can now manage multiple domains from one place.
Learn more about forwarding a Squarespace domain.
Improving Home menu navigation
In an effort to improve the editing experience, we’ve consolidated some settings within the Home Menu:
To access the Pages panel, click Website
Near the bottom of the panel, a new System Pages section is the new home for managing your 404 page, Lock Screen, Access Denied, and Checkout pages. Prior to this update, these pages’ settings were located across different sections.
Similarly, below System Pages, a new Website Tools section groups Custom CSS, Code Injection, Mobile Information Bar, and Cookies & Visitor Data in one place.
(7.1 only) You can now hide and expand pages within the left-hand Pages panel (Main Navigation and Not Linked sections) for a cleaner view while editing your site.
(7.1 only) The Design panel has been removed.
To access Site Styles, click the paintbrush icon, even when not in Edit Mode.
