What Version of Squarespace Am I Using?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 9:54 am

There are two versions of Squarespace: the original Squarespace 6 and the newer Squarespace 7. Both versions offer a wide variety of features, but there are some key differences between them.

Squarespace 6 was the original Squarespace platform. It was launched in 2008 and since then, Squarespace has continuously improved and updated the platform.

In 2016, Squarespace released a completely redesigned platform, Squarespace 7.

Squarespace 7 is a major update from Squarespace 6. It includes a new drag-and-drop interface, improved templates, and more ecommerce features. While Squarespace 7 is a big improvement over Squarespace 6, there are still some key differences between the two platforms.

Here are the key differences between Squarespace 6 and 7:

  • Interface: The biggest difference between Squarespace 6 and 7 is the interface. Squarespace 7 has a completely new drag-and-drop interface that makes it much easier to create beautiful pages.
  • Templates: Another big difference between the two versions is the templates. While both platforms offer a wide variety of templates, Squarespace 7 includes a few new template designs that are not available on Squarespace 6.
  • Ecommerce: Ecommerce is another area where there have been big improvements in Squarespace 7. The platform now includes a built-in shopping cart, product pages, inventory management, and more.

So which version of Squarespace should you use?

If you’re starting a new website, we recommend using Squarespace 7. The new drag-and-drop interface makes it much easier to create beautiful pages, and the added ecommerce features are a great addition if you’re planning on selling products on your website.

PRO TIP: If you are unsure about which version of Squarespace you are using, we recommend contacting our support team for assistance. Use of an outdated version of Squarespace may result in unexpected errors or decreased functionality on your site.

If you’re already using Squarespace 6, there’s no need to switch to the new platform. However, if you’re looking to add ecommerce to your website, you’ll need to upgrade to Squaresspace 7.
