Add User to Your Website
If someone on your team is going to be making website edits, add them as a contributor so they have their own login info. It’s easy and more secure than sharing login information between people.
Invite Contributor
Go to “Settings”
Gear icon at the bottom of the menu
Click “Permissions & Ownership”
Click “Invite Contributor”
Enter the name and email address of the contributor
The invitation will be sent to the email address you enter here
Select the permissions
Administrator = full access
Billing = can change billing info and settings
Website Editor = can edit content but cannot add new pages or change style settingsIf you’re not sure what to pick, go with Website Editor. You can always go back and change permission levels later if you need to change access.
If you are using commerce, campaigns, or scheduling with your website, you will need to toggle on access for those tools individually.
Click “Invite”
Unlimited Users on Business Plan and Above
If you are on the Personal plan, you can only have 2 contributors. On any other plan you can add unlimited contributors. If I built your website, you are on the Business plan or above.
Finding Menu Items
Squarespace sometimes moves menu items around and changes menu titles. So, if you don’t see the specific items I mentioned, use this trick to find permissions:
Press “/” on your keyboard to pull up a search bar, then type “permissions.”
This is a great shortcut to quickly find the settings you need!
