How Do I Make an Image a Button in Squarespace?

Last updated on December 29, 2022 @ 7:27 pm

As a general rule, you should never use images as buttons on your website. However, there may be times when you want to use an image as a button, such as for a social media share button.

If you must use an image as a button, there are a few things you can do to make sure it is accessible to all users.

To make an image a button in Squarespace, you will need to add some code to your CSS file. You can find the code for this in the Squarespace help center.

Once you have added the code, you will need to style the text that will appear on the button. You can do this by using the <p>, <b> and <u> tags.

The <p> tag will allow you to style the text that appears on the button. The <b> tag will make the text bold, and the <u> tag will underline the text.

You can also use CSS to style the text on the button.

If you want to make sure that your image is accessible to all users, you should add alt text to it. Alt text is a description of an image that is used by screen readers for people who are blind or have low vision. By adding alt text to your image, you can ensure that all users will be able to understand what the image represents.

PRO TIP: If you are using Squarespace to create a website, do not make an image a button without first understanding how it will affect your website’s design. Making an image a button can create alignment and spacing issues, as well as make your website less responsive.

In conclusion, while it’s generally not advisable to use images as buttons on websites, there are some circumstances where doing so may be necessary. If you must use an image as a button, be sure to add code to your CSS file and style the text using HTML tags or CSS. Finally, don’t forget to add alt text to your image so that everyone can understand its purpose!
