Site URL: https://www.materialandmovement.com I think I set up my shopping categories wrong initially, and now I don't know how to fix it. I have a jewelry website. My shop categories are Earrings, Post Earrings, Necklaces, and Gift Certificates. There is no "parent" shop all page, and when you click on the SHOP folder, it just goes to the first category which is Earrings. the link www.materialandmovement.com/shop also just goes to earrings. I want the shop link to show all items, but I'm not sure how to retroactively set up my store that way. Any help is appreciated!

Site URL: https://www.sawyerliam.com/store Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to add a paragraph under the category name of my shop page? I want this to be different for each category I have since it is different products. Any help would be appreciated! thank you

Site URL: https://www.agentrx.co/shop Hi I am having issues with the scrolling navigation for my store and would like to change it to a dropdown. I've never changed CSS and can't figure out how to do it specifically for my site. Thanks for any help!

Site URL: https://daffodil-clementine-36hx.squarespace.com/config/pages I am building a site for a boat brokerage. Needless to say they have many products (listings) with multiple category options. I am wanting a simple way to navigate the within the product gallery. I have hunted high and low to find a way to filter/sort these listings in a way that is generic across the site in the sense that the same categories can be applied no matter what product. I have 5 product galleries. 1.Yacht 2.Power 3.Multihull 4.Trailer Boats - within each product type i'd like to display the sort options as a dropdown where the user then selects how they would like to view the products within the gallery. I was reading a thread earlier which suggested using an Archive block as a way to display a "shop sort". I had a play around with this and i think this is actually a viable option. The question is this.... How do I get the categories to action as per my category titles suggest they will. - sort by lowest price - sort by highest price - sort by type Here is an example of a dropdown shop sort on a similar type of site to the one I am currently building https://www.busfieldmarine.co.nz/shop/New+Boats.html Can anyone shed any light on this please? I am also open to other suggestions - I have looked into a universal filter and a mega menu - i not written these off instead i am still exploring options - the archive block made a lot of sense and relatively simple if I can get it to function accordingly. Help would be very much appreciated please!

Site URL: https://saffron-butterfly-a26f.squarespace.com Using Squarespace 7.1 (business package), I am trying to create a dropdown menu system similar to what is at https://www.100percentpure.com/ . My plan is to have 8 main links, each with a couple of choices underneath (e.g. main link "Gallery" would have the choice of either "Art" or "Furniture" beneath). I would also like to have the main link be ("Gallery") bring up a page with all the products in both "Art" and "Furniture". I have tried to do this a couple of ways: 1. Create subcategories off a store page (e.g. a category of "Gallery" with sub-categories "Art" and "Furniture"). This did not work because the main menu did not have the sub-categories as menu choices. 2. Adding a Folder named "Gallery" with new store pages named "Art" and "Furniture". This gets me almost there, but the main Folder does not lead to a page so I have to add a third sub-category page "Gallery" to encompass both "Art" and "Furniture". I think this is a problem that has been covered elsewhere with varying success (in the coding/customization area I believe). As an added irritation, since I am reworking the store from a previous store, the new pages do not reference the categories of existing inventory which I have corrected the categories to match my new organization. I realize there are a lot of different little problems here, but I couldn't figure out how to parse them down into smaller problems as they are all somewhat linked together.

Site URL: https://www.plantshopmanchester.com/ Hi there! We currently have products sorted by categories, and you can view all the products by category using the drop-down menu. Problem is, I want to add a description for each category page as a text box below the category title. I can't do this currently, as the pages are Link pages which link to the category, and they aren't editable. I tried setting each Category up as a separate Store page, where I can add a block of text, but this means they won't show under the View All page, and I also can't add existing products to each page, I can only make new products for each page, and some products come up under multiple categories, so I don't want duplicates. For example, we have products under the 'Pet Friendly' category, which may also fall under the 'Bright Light' category. Does anyone have a work-around?

Site URL: https://www.littleboxes.shop/build On the product page, category and subcategory are missing from the breadcrumbs. This is extremely frustrating, as this isn't a true breadcrumb if all it does is bring you back to the main page. Is there any workaround to show the full path with category (and subcategories if applicable) in the breadcrumb on the product detail page? It now only shows: Shop Home > Product Item But it needs to show: Shop Home > Category > (Subcategory if applicable) > Product Item Any help? Thanks in advance!

Site URL: https://www.agencymvp.com/mvp-university-main We want to add a text field below each MVP University section that explains what that section is. For example, when one of our users clicks 'Agent Kickoff' and we filter through only the agent kickoff videos, we also want a text field above all the videos that says "Our Agent Kickoff section is all about how to get your MVP account set up...". The challenge in setting this up is that when we click 'Agent Kickoff' in MVPU, we're actually staying on the same page (same URL) and just filtering out certain categories/tags. That means that any new text field we put on that page doesn't change accordingly with the filtering that takes place when you select a certain category like 'Agent Kickoff. Is there a way to solve for this? I've included a screenshot on where the text would go. Site URL: https://www.agencymvp.com/mvp-university-main

Hello, Newbie here. I'm trying to get the category navigation to show up on each page for eery sub category. See pics. On the main shop page there are links to categories. When you click on a category, I want the same option to choose another category at the top of that page. Trying to minimize clicks for users. Thanks!! Jason

Site URL: https://www.laslilasylaluna.bio I would like to show in our calendar only the workshops with a certain label or category, but I can't figure out how to do it. How can this be done? thanks in advance!

Site URL: https://www.wildflowerillustrationco.com/store Hello, Is there a way to add some code to hide all categories from showing in the side bar, so that it only displays tags? I'm going to have an option to navigate through categories in the home page so I'd prefer it doesn't show a huge list. Thank you ! Site password is 'justloading' Rebecca

Is there a way to define a list of blog categories and disable the creation of new categories? I have a predefined list of acceptable categories and don't want users to be able to add their own

Site URL: https://stageengage.squarespace.com/hire Hi Guys, Hopefully someone can help me with this. I have a store setup on my webpage which when the link for the store is clicked it lands on the 'All' category page, is there any way I can get it to land on one of the other categories pages?

Site URL: http://briajosephs.com Hey y'all, I'm looking to disable the category hyperlinks on my site. I do not want visitors to be able to click on the category and be taken to the separate category page - I solely want the categories to exist as labels. How do I disable that hyperlink across the site? Thanks,

Hi folks, wondering if anyone can help. I'm trying to use javascript to add some custom code to a filtered view of events on squarespace (so a filtered view of a category). (what i'm trying to do eventually is to add in some extra links above the "filtering by" text. ) I thought i'd do an initial test to see if I could get some code applied to the page (i.e just changing the background colour of the block). But it seems like something is happening when I try to apply the code to this page. My code is super simple (see below)... <script> const filteredView = document.querySelectorAll("div.sqs-events-collection-list") filteredView.style.backgroundColor = '#000000' </script> However, when I check the console, everything I try to set just keeps coming up as "undefined". Does anyone know if there's something that blocks scripts on category pages? or perhaps there's something i'm missing! i've tried adding the script to both the footer and header injection... site URL https://ellipse-krill-97td.squarespace.com/programme?category=Event and pw: CG any help or advice appreciated!

I don't want all of the products showing up on the shop page. I've tried turning the visibility for the "all" page off but it doesn't work. Thanks

Site URL: https://www.ratherbecreative.com 3 categories in the shopping cart. Each category needs it's own separate content and images. Images in each category accomplished. Content in each category has been over a 12 hour issue so far from a person that has created a lot of shopping carts for over 20 years as this is the first using this app. In the edit section: When inside the category, I see the images, when I click on "Add Section", then click on Text. I easily add the content for the specific category. The Section of Text added appears in the Front Page on the Store Front as well as all the Categories. Here are the tiers of the shopping cart. Main Shopping Front Page: https://www.ratherbecreative.com/art-store Categories Within The Main Shopping Cart Front Page: https://www.ratherbecreative.com/art-store/freshman-collection https://www.ratherbecreative.com/art-store/core-curriculum https://www.ratherbecreative.com/art-store/freshman-fifteen Each shopping cart category page needs it's own content just as the images are showing. As you can see on the screenshots, I added the sections from both the top and the bottom of the images within the proper category. You can also see on screenshots how the content on the store front was added when in edit mode within the category regardless if I "add the text section" from the top or bottom of the image section.

Hi everyone. I usually create a category, for example in my keyrings section of my shop, I would create movie keyrings, video game key rings, comic book keyrings etc.. Never had any problem. However, one I just added / created is not working properly. The item I added to it and created it for is not appearing there, although the category itself is showing up, but nothing is there. Has anyone had this happen before? or know the fix? or is it usually just slow to update? Thanks in advance

Site URL: https://www.straight-leg.com/shop Hi everybody, I have been able thanking your help in previous questions to remove the "all" word from my online store. But the problem remain because actually I don't have the "all" word anymore but effectively I still have everything together. is that a way to avoid this? I actually would like that you clic in the online store and you go in one of the product lists i created. Let say "unique pieces" underlined. I think these summary when all the products are together is really ugly especially if i update different products with the same picture like i show in the attached image. Thank for your help Daniele

Site URL: https://www.emmaalviti.co.uk/ Hi, I've seen a few threads regarding this already, but I'm struggling to make it work on my site. Essentially I want to improve my site's SEO by adding descriptions to EACH category with my shop. So the aim is that underneath the product category ie; Cushions, there would be space to write 50-100 words about the cushions. The products would then follow on underneath. The space I want to use is shown in the attachment. If anyone has any suggestions, that would be amazing, thanks!

Site URL: https://www.cottoncashmerecathair.com/ I have discovered via search console that Google is indexing my archive pages, categories, and tags over individual blog posts, which means my site is not showing up in search results when it should be. How can I tell Google not to index those pages and instead index the blog posts? I read in other posts here that you can inject code, but how do I inject code for pages that aren't in my navigation? I also know about canonical links but they confuse me; is that something I do in search console? How does one go about setting those? Any insight/tips would be much appreciated!

Site URL: https://www.compas.org/artists Hello, We're an arts education provider and use our web store as a catalog of hirable artists. We use an archive block at the top of the page to allow users to sort the "products" by category, but in the last 24 hours, we've had some weird issues with the archive block. On the backend editor, the block will sometimes show up as completely empty (see attached image), and on the front end, it will disappear completely. I was unable to get a screen capture of what the page looks like when the archive block is missing, but I've attached an image of what it should look like. Is this a known issue? Anything we can do about this? Thank you!

How do I remove the "all" category from my shop. It lists ALL the products and I only want to list by category. I have tried all the code suggestions I could find on here but nothing seems to work. I am using Avenue. Version 7.0. Thanks!
