Dynamic Editor is Squarespace's drag-and-drop content editor for version 7.1 sites, allowing you to create and customize page layouts with blocks. It's available for block sections, footers, and portfolio projects.

Key Features:

• Flexible grid system for precise block placement
• Independent desktop and mobile layouts
• Block pinning capabilities
• Background color options
• Fit/Fill adjustments for images and buttons
• Maximum recommended limit of 60 blocks per page

Getting Started:

1. Click "Edit" on your page
2. Click "Add Section"
3. Choose "Add Blank Section" or select a pre-designed template
4. Add blocks using the "Add Block" button
5. Drag and resize blocks as needed

Converting Classic Editor Sections:

1. Click "Edit" on the page
2. Click "Update" in the section's upper left corner
3. Review and adjust the layout as needed

Mobile Optimization:

• Switch to mobile view using the device icon
• Reorganize blocks independently from desktop layout
• Use arrow buttons for quick block reordering
• Review mobile layout after adding new content

Styling Options:

Remember that content changes affect both desktop and mobile layouts, while positioning changes are layout-specific. Always review both versions to ensure optimal presentation across all devices.

Note: Dynamic Editor is not available for blog posts, event descriptions, or additional product information, which still use the Classic Editor.
