G2GPerf Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 I want to create a sign up form on my website, with a link to our terms and conditions and privacy policy so people can agree to this before typing their e-mail in accordance with GDPR. Is there a way to do this within the form? Thanks Link to comment
paul2009 Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 (edited) Yes. You can add a link to your T&Cs page by adding the HTML for the link directly to the checkbox description. Update: Please note that Squarespace have since removed the ability to add HTML to the checkout page.

Guest Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 But the checkbox description does not allow adding the link right after the chech box line. I found a post with a clear picture what I'm looking for: https://forum.squarespace.com/topic/152950-adding-a-link-to-a-form-on-a-cover-page/#comment-337064 Is this possible to achieve?

CoffeeHops Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Hey guys, you can do this by using html in the description of the checkbox. As an example, copy and paste the following, and just change out the "/terms-conditions" to whatever the relevant page link is: View the <a href="/terms-conditions" target="_blank">terms and conditions</a> here. Then the user will just see: View the terms and conditions here. sandra.bertalan, AlisonJ, Tomei1989 and 1 other 4 Link to comment
sandra.bertalan Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Thank you @CoffeeHops Is there a way to link in the options section of a multiple choice question rather than in the description? And also underline the linked word? Link to comment
CoffeeHops Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 @sandra.bertalan I don't believe you can include the link in one of the multiple choice answer options sorry 😞 sandra.bertalan 1 Link to comment
oreosarefood Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 (edited) For some reason when I try this it displays perfectly in the test preview but not in the actual checkout. I have tried on both chrome and safari and neither display correctly at checkout. Any guidance anyone? Thanks Edited August 24, 2020 by TobiasH privacy sssupers 1 Link to comment

Yes, this seems to be the case. I'm following several threads related to this, and paul2009 is in all of them suggesting solutions that don't seem to have been tested. It seems even stranger that in the Squarespace official page for creating a custom checkout form, the first paragraph says: Quote You can also use it to require customers to agree to your Terms of Service. But this doesn't seem to be the case unless you post your full terms as the option, which wouldn't look great to the user. Link to comment
Solution paul2009 Posted November 6, 2020 Solution Share Posted November 6, 2020 (edited) On 11/6/2020 at 1:36 PM, sleeping-bunnies said: I'm following several threads related to this, and paul2009 is in all of them suggesting solutions that don't seem to have been tested. As Squarespace features change over time, posts can become outdated. It used to be possible to add links to the checkout page but Squarespace tightened up security and removed this feature. I've replied to your post in a different thread on the same subject here. In summary, you can add a return policy, terms of service, and/or a privacy policy to your checkout page, with links that open these policies in a pop-up window. To configure these, go to Commerce > Cart & checkout > Store policies. Did this help?

Tomei1989 Posted October 13 Share Posted October 13 So this actually worked Hey guys, you can do this by using html in the description of the checkbox. As an example, copy and paste the following, and just change out the "/terms-conditions" to whatever the relevant page link is: View the <a href="/terms-conditions" target="_blank">terms and conditions</a> here. Then the user will just see: View the terms and conditions here. But my new question is , is there anyway to get this to open on a separate page rather than leaving the page it's already on?
