How Do You Make a Carousel Auto Slide on Squarespace?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 5:04 am

PRO TIP: This note is to warn you about the dangers of using the carousel auto slide feature on Squarespace. This feature can be very dangerous and can lead to serious injury or even death. Use this feature at your own risk and only if you are sure that you can control the carousel.

A carousel is a rotating set of images, usually three to five, that visitors can view by clicking on small circles or arrows on the side of the image. You can add a carousel to any page or post on your Squarespace site.

To add a carousel block:

1. Open the page or post editor and click an insertion point. 2. In the Block Menu, click Media.

3. Click Carousel. 4. Select the images you want to include in your carousel and click Open. You can upload new images or select images from your Image Manager.

Once you’ve added your images, click and drag them into the order you want them to appear.

To change how long each image appears for, use the Image Duration slider.

If you want your carousel to automatically rotate through the images, enable Auto-play Carousel.
