Report: Custom Code Modifications and Malware Safety in Squarespace
Code-based customizations provide a way to expand Squarespace's functionality using custom code when built-in features don't meet your needs. While these modifications aren't officially supported, they offer additional possibilities for your website.
Common ways to implement custom code:
- Code blocks
- Code injection
- Embed blocks
Popular code-based customizations include:
- Adsense for site monetization
- Apple Touch icon for iOS bookmarks
- BeerMenus for alcohol menu displays
- Bloglovin' for blog verification
- Etsy shop integration
- Eventbrite registration
- Facebook Pixel for advertising
- Feedly RSS integration
- Issuu for document embedding
- MLS search for real estate
- Swiftype for custom search
- Zocdoc for appointment booking
Important considerations:
- Functionality isn't guaranteed
- Mobile responsiveness may vary
- Support is limited for custom code
- Third-party documentation should be consulted
- Sometimes linking to external services is preferable
To get help with code-based modifications:
- Check the service's documentation
- Visit the Squarespace Forum
- Consult Squarespace Experts
- Contact the third-party service's support
