Code-based customizations expand Squarespace's functionality through custom code when built-in features aren't sufficient. While these modifications offer additional possibilities, they fall outside Squarespace's official support scope.

Implementation typically requires inserting third-party code into code blocks or embeds. Here's what you need to know:

Limitations:

• Functionality and compatibility aren't guaranteed
• May not be fully responsive on mobile devices
• Support is limited to third-party providers

Popular Code-Based Customizations:

• Adsense: Display advertisements
• Apple Touch Icon: iOS bookmark icons
• BeerMenus: Alcoholic beverage menus
• Bloglovin: Blog verification
• Etsy: Store embedding
• Eventbrite: Event registration
• Facebook Pixel: Conversion tracking
• Feedly: RSS integration
• Issuu: PDF embedding
• MLS search: Real estate listings
• Swiftype: Alternative search functionality
• Zocdoc: Medical appointment booking

Adding Other Third-Party Services: If a service offers widgets, HTML, or JavaScript code, you can typically integrate it using:

• Code blocks
• Embed blocks
• Code embeds

Support Options:

• Third-party service documentation
• Squarespace Peer Forum
• Squarespace Experts
• Enterprise customers: Dedicated support available through squarespace.com/enterprise

Before implementing code-based customizations, consider whether linking to the third-party service might be a more sustainable solution. Always test modifications thoroughly, especially on mobile devices, to ensure proper functionality across all platforms.
