On my client's site, it's accessed through Design, but on my new site I created today, it's accessed through "Website", which takes me to the "Pages" tab, or what used to be called "pages", then I have to scroll all the way down and click "Website tools", and THEN "Custom CSS." So, I'm wondering if they changed something.

Squarespace are rolling out some changes to streamline editor navigation. As a result you may notice that some items have moved or been renamed.

The options previously titled 'Pages' and 'Design' are now combined under the heading 'Website'.

Thanks. Is there any option to go back to the previous UI?

Further changes are possible, but there aren’t any user-selectable options.

I have worked using Squarespace for the last 4 years. Usually, the main navigation from the dashboard is showing the page and design option. But currently, my new setup doesn't have both of them. I am really very surprised about it.

Hi, how can I contact SquareSpace about this? I am the owner of the site. However since signing up for the subscription, the "Design" option has disappeared. Thanks, Melody

I found it! It's under Website > scrolling down to Utilities > Website Tools > Custom CSS.

The design options moving under Website is a somewhat recent 7.1 configuration design change by Squarespace. It kinda threw me as well. I suppose it is part of the separation of 7.0 and 7.1 giving 7.1 more of its own personality so to speak.

Is there an 'official' Squarespace newsletter/dev update/etc that one may sign up for to get notified of these changes in Advance? It would be nice to know. Or does SS just update and not tell anybody? I feel like I'm missing the 'press releases' about updates and then one day I log in and I can't figure out where the heck my tools are.
