How to insert Gallery block to Squarespace 7.1 template?

Written By Beyondspace

To insert a Gallery block into a Squarespace 7.1 template, you can follow these steps:

  1. Use the Classic Gallery Block Plugin: Since Squarespace 7.1 limits the ability to add Gallery Blocks directly to page sections, you can use the Classic Gallery Block plugin to enable this feature.

  2. Activate the Plugin:

    • Install Ground Control and access the Toolbox section.
    • Find the Classic Gallery Block option in the Toolbox.
    • Toggle the switch to ON to enable the plugin.

  3. Insert the Gallery Block:

    • Once enabled, you’ll see the Gallery Block option when inserting a new block into your sections.
    • You can now add and customize gallery blocks on any page section in Squarespace 7.1.

Bonus Features:

  • The inserted Gallery blocks are compatible with Lightbox Studio, allowing you to zoom and group lightboxes on your site.
  • You can also enable lightbox features for Slideshow, Stacked, and Carousel Gallery blocks using Lightbox Studio.
