How do I use a collection block identifier in Squarespace?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 11:15 pm

When creating a collection block in Squarespace, you can use a collection block identifier (CBID) to uniquely identify the collection. CBIDs are unique within a collection and across all collections within a site.

You can use CBIDs to label collections, add metadata to collections, and search for collections using the Squarespace search engine.

To create a collection block with a CBID, first create a new collection in Squarespace. You can do this by clicking on the + button on the Collections page, or by clicking on the Collections tab on the Home page and then selecting New Collection.

To create a collection block with a CBID, enter the CBID into the Collection Block ID field. You can also optionally enter a name for the collection in the Name field.

When you create a collection block with a CBID, the CBID is automatically assigned to the collection. You can use the CBID to label the collection, add metadata to the collection, and search for the collection using the Squarespace search engine.

You can also use CBIDs to identify collections in other sites that you manage. For example, you can use CBIDs to label collections in your personal site and then use the CBIDs to search for collections in your company’s site.

When you create a collection block with a CBID, Squarespace creates a new collection with the same name and CBID. You can use the CBID to identify the new collection, and you can use the new collection to store your documents and images.

If you want to remove a collection from your site, you can use the Squarespace deletion tool to delete the collection and the associated CBID.

PRO TIP: If you are using a collection block identifier in Squarespace, be aware that there is a known issue with how collection block identifiers are displayed on some pages. This issue can cause your collection block identifier to be displayed incorrectly, or not at all. If you are using a collection block identifier on a page where this issue is present, we recommend using a different method to identify the collection block.

If you want to rename a collection, you can use the Squarespace renaming tool to change the name of the collection and the associated CBID.

You can use the Squarespace search engine to find collections with the CBIDs that you have configured in your site.

When you use the Squarespace search engine to find a collection with a CBID, the search results include the name of the collection, the CBID, and the list of files in the collection.

You can also use the Squarespace search engine to find collections that have been removed from your site.

If you want to find a specific file in a collection, you can use the Squarespace search engine to find the file by its name or by its CBID.

If you want to find all the files in a collection, you can use the Squarespace search engine to find the collection by its name or by its CBID.
