How do I switch an existing site (on squarespace) into the new one I've designed in a different template

But how do I switch them over, how do I turn the old one off, and the new on on?

You can move your domain name from the old to the new site as follows:

1. Log on to the old site and disconnect the domain Settings > Domains > Disconnect Domain and confirm.

2. Log on to the new site and connect the domain. Go to Settings > DomainsUse a Domain I Own and follow the steps to connect your domain.

There may be some additional delays depending on whether SSL and HSTS were enabled on the old site. If you need help with this process you can contact Squarespace Customer Care. You can reach out to them here.

You're AMAZINg this worked like a dream thanks man!

 

Only now Squareapace is asking me to pay to upgrade to publish the new site. But, i don't want to pay twice, how do I do the same sort of switcheroo, only this time with the payment I've already got in place?

Thanks SO much, really appreciate the helP!

It’s not possible to move a website subscription between sites. You'll need to cancel the site you don’t need and upgrade the one you want to use in its place.

Check Squarespace's Refund Policy before cancelling, because they don't offer pro-rata refunds.

To cancel a site subscription:

1. Go to Settings > Billing & AccountBilling > Subscriptions.

2. Click your site subscription and then click Cancel Subscription.
