richardgreencreative Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Site URL: http://richardgreencreative.com/cart Morning All So I've noticed something within the past week for an issue, that as far as I've checked, is active with EVERY website created by Squarespace - this being that every website has an active cart page, even if you've never physically enabled it and it remains disabled all the time. No page within the Pages section, and disabled within the header edit section. I have several website that have never used a cart but the page is active. www.richardgreencreative.com/cart www.animamusicuk.com/cart www.greenconltd.com/cart This is pretty frustrating as it's affecting SEO and website ranking in terms of bounce rate etc. What's more confusing is that my Google Analytics for my website (www.richardgreencreative.com) is showing data that website visitors are somehow visiting the direct cart URL?! My question firstly, is how? How are visitors even getting to this cart when I've never had it active and currently has no way of getting to it via anywhere on my site. Secondly, and most importantly, WHY is is this something that's an issue with every active squarespace website? Please can admin provide some insight into this and provide a fix to this. Having this affect website quality by something that I can't seem to deactivate/disable is a little frustrating. Thanks in advance. Link to comment

richardgreencreative Posted April 14, 2022 Author Share Posted April 14, 2022 Thanks for your help, Paul. My main issue here is that it is causing some issues, as some people must be finding the cart page as my Google Analytics account is tracking traffic to the cart page for several of the sites mentioned above. My own IP is excluded from all of my GA tracking so I know it's not myself creating any traffic data. Thanks Link to comment
