AndySmith Posted October 15 Posted October 15 Site URL: https://tarpon-clownfish-73lf.squarespace.com/config/pages Hi team - I'm revising the layout of some of the pages on a live Squarespace-built site, and I want to copy some content blocks from the live pages to the draft pages (currently in the Not Linked section). Is there a simple way to duplicate something like an accordion (with all the content and formatting), and paste it into a separate page?
CassAggett Posted October 16 Posted October 16 @AndySmith You can use the section favourites for this. Hover over the section with the accordion you want to copy then click the heart button. Go back to the draft page and add a new section, then select the new one from the favourites. From here, you should be able to copy and paste the block from the new section to an existing one, or you can reuse the new section you just added.

AndySmith Posted October 16 Author Posted October 16 Thanks @CassAggett - this is really useful. To be clear though, there's no way of easily copying the content from an individual content block, rather than copying the entire section that the content block sits within?

There are two built-in ways to copy Blocks. 1. Using Saved Sections as CassAggett has described 2. You can use the keyboard shortkey CTRL+C and CTRL+V (CMD+C and CMD+V for ios). This works for the same page or across different pages. There is a third way, but it involves a third-party paid chrome extension SquareTool Extension Pro. This additionally allows you to copy across different Squarespace websites, as well as a bunch of other features. It's probably an overkill if you are only looking to copy a Block. Let me know how it goes.
