How Do I Add Music to Squarespace?

Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 11:29 pm

There are many ways to add music to your Squarespace website. One way is to use an HTML code widget.

This allows you to embed audio files from third-party sites like SoundCloud or Bandcamp. You can also use the Audio Block to upload MP3 files directly from your computer.

To use an HTML code widget:

  1. In the Home Menu, click Pages.
  2. Click the + icon next to the page where you want to add the audio file.
  3. Select Code from the Block menu.
  4. In the Content Editor, paste your code snippet and click Apply.
PRO TIP: Adding music to your Squarespace website is a great way to add some personality and flair to your site. However, there are a few things you should keep in mind before adding music to your site.

First, make sure that the music you want to add is compatible with Squarespace. Not all music formats are supported by Squarespace, so you’ll need to check that the music you want to use is in a compatible format.

Second, be aware of copyright issues. If you’re using copyrighted music on your site, you could be opening yourself up to legal action. Make sure you have the rights to use any music you add to your Squarespace site.

Finally, keep your visitors in mind. Not everyone wants to listen to music while they’re browsing a website, so make sure you give them the option to turn off the music if they prefer. Adding a “mute” button somewhere on your site is a good way to do this.

To use the Audio Block:

  1. In the Home Menu, click Pages.
  2. Select Audio from the Block menu.
  3. In the Content Editor, click Add Audio and select your file. You can also drag and drop an MP3 file from your computer into the content editor.

Conclusion:

There are many ways to add music to your Squarespace website. You can use an HTML code widget or the Audio Block to upload MP3 files directly from your computer.
