onlineKarma Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Unfortunately the Icon for WhatsApp is missing in the "Social Links" of Squarespace. Can Squarespace kindly add it? Currently only a "URL" symbol shows instead of the WhatsApp Icon. Link to comment

onlineKarma Posted July 26, 2019 Author Share Posted July 26, 2019 It would be nice if Squarespace would add WhatsApp to their list of Social Icons I think https://support.squarespace.com/hc/en-us/articles/205814598 Link to comment

onlineKarma Posted July 29, 2019 Author Share Posted July 29, 2019 Update from Squarespace Support: "As it seems you've discovered, we don't currently offer that feature, but I'd be happy to suggest it to our development team on your behalf. While we can't guarantee implementation of every suggestion, customer feedback is an important part of how we continue to improve our platform, so we appreciate your input. Although we can't disclose information about upcoming product releases, we are actively developing the platform to provide the best customer experience." Let's see what happens next, in the meantime, yes, one should implement the logo manually like @mdhanjal suggested :) Link to comment

Please, @squarespace support. we are begging for it! Link to comment
onlineKarma Posted February 14, 2020 Author Share Posted February 14, 2020 It's been over a year by now and I agree with @Caballero that it shouldn't be such a big deal to implement an icon... Anyone has any idea when we can expect the update? WhatsApp is the second largest Social Media in the World and has approx. 1 bio users... It should really be treated with higher relevancy than providing "IMDb" or "VSCO" Icons... Link to comment
LianLim Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 @Caballero we are looking to use / share WhatsApp details through our website too! Link to comment
tilegore Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 @Caballero I also agree, Whatsapp is crucial in any WebStore today... let's make this post a complaint and send the link here to give more attention. Link to comment

tilegore Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I believe that this is today one of the mishaps that costs Squarespace a lot ... in countries like India, Brazil, Indonesia, Colombia, Portugal, Spain, Italy and even the USA, which is currently the 3rd in the list of users of the application there must be thousands of customers who give up subscribing to Squarespace just for this reason. Here in Portugal is the first question from the people that I present Squarespace, always! Whatsapp is the world's largest messaging app and all of Squarespace's competition has this option for customers, we don't have to wait a lifetime for this and limit our business possibilities ... they have to take a look at this topic and we have to open more complaints.

Mobos Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 If it wasn't that dead serious, it is almost funny that a modern company like Squarespace doesn't support social sharing by mail or by WhatsApp in 2020!! Come on Squarespace, it shouldn't be that difficult for you. When can we expect???? Link to comment
