Guest Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) Very new to this sort of thing. What's the best template for a news + articles + feature based website. Have no idea how to bring recent articles as links in the homepage for example. Whatculture and bleacher report are examples of the sort of site I would want.

Solution Chris_SQSP Posted June 1, 2015 Solution Share Posted June 1, 2015 All templates have regular Pages and Text Blocks, which it sounds like will be your two main building blocks in creating your site. For news and updates, you may also consider using a Blog Page as you can create a new post each day, which will then display in chronological order with the most recent post/update at the top. See here for more information on using a Blog Page. A couple of templates that may interest you are Om or Five. To add external links to recent articles, you can either create a Navigation Link or a text link within the page content. Link to comment
Guest Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I am also interested in this - I am looking to have a single page where I can post focused and curated news articles for a specific audience. What I am really looking for is to post links in a grid format and they auto-generate a preview similar to how LinkedIN or Facebook does when you copy a link into a new post. Any suggestions here? See example attached.... Link to comment

derricksrandomviews Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 (edited) This is a good Squaresapce template for a news based site, if I was not using Avenue I would use this one, actually I am thinking about building a site and switching over to it: https://skye-demo.squarespace.com/ Edited September 3, 2022 by derricksrandomviews Link to comment

Actually I can 't select the Skye, I work a lot with huge media and definetely SQS is not yet the best option, I will go back to Wordpress for this profiles of web sites. Chnine 1 Link to comment
