Last updated on February 2, 2023 @ 8:40 am

There are a few different ways to remove headers and footers in Squarespace. One way is to remove the headers and footer of all your website pages. Another way is to apply this change to just one page on your Squarespace website.

In this tutorial, we will show you how to remove the header and footer of this website as an example.

 

1. Remove the Header and Footer from all Website Pages

To get started, first, go into the Design tab on the left navigation pane.

Then, select “Custom CSS” from the options.

On the next page, copy the code below and type it in the space provided, then click on the “Save” button.

NOTE: This will hide both the header and footer on your site.

#header, #footer {
display: none;
}

The removal of the header and footer will now be reflected on all pages of your website.

PRO TIP: Please be aware that removing headers and footers in Squarespace may cause design and layout issues on your website. If you are not comfortable with editing code, we recommend contacting a Squarespace Expert to help with this.

2. Remove the Header and Footer from just One Website Page

To remove the header and footer of just one website page in your Squarespace account, first, go to the Pages tab.

In the Main Navigation pane, select one of the pages and click the gear icon on the right side.

In the new window that will pop up, go to the Advanced tab.

Then, copy the code below and paste it into the space provided. Once done, click on the “Save” button.

NOTE: Make sure that your code is enclosed within the style tags as written below. Otherwise, the code will not work.

<style>
#header, #footer {
display: none;
}
</style>

And there you have it! Now you have more options on how to go about removing the header and footer of your website pages in Squarespace.
