Squarespace is one of the best and top-rated web design software platforms, especially for small business owners. They make it easy and quick to build and customize your own branded website, starting with a template.

Adding a new user to your Squarespace website is an important and often necessary task, especially if you are running a business. Whether you are looking to give someone access to the website to help manage content or create a new account for a customer, the process is simple and straightforward. In this article, we will discuss the steps necessary for how to add users to Squarespace.

The first step to adding a new user to your Squarespace website is to log into your Squarespace account. Once logged in, you will be taken to your Squarespace Dashboard, where you will be able to manage your website’s content, settings, and users. Navigate to the Settings tab on the left-hand side of the Dashboard and click on the Users option. This will take you to the User Management page where you can add, edit, and manage your users.

The Squarespace Dashboard is where you can access settings, users, billing, and more from all your various accounts.

Once on the User Management page, click the “+New User” button. This will bring up a dialogue box in which you can enter the details for the new user. Here you will be able to enter the new user’s name, email address, and a password for their account. You can also customize their permissions, such as whether or not they have access to the billing and payment settings.

After entering the user’s information, click the “Create” button. This will create a new user account in your Squarespace website and send an email to the user’s email address with instructions on how to log in. The user will also be able to reset their password if they ever forget it.Once the user has created their account and logged in, they will be taken to their Squarespace Dashboard.

Here they will be able to manage content, add new pages, and make other changes to the website. It is important to note that the new user will only have access to the areas that you have given them permission to, so be sure to adjust their permissions accordingly.

Here are the exact steps outlined in our video and on social media!

2. Go to your Dashboard

3. Click into settings for the proper account (3 dots)

4. Click on “Permissions”

8. Add and save

9. They can accept the email invite on their end

10. They might need to create an account if they dont have one

That’s all there is to it! Adding a new user to your Squarespace website is a relatively simple process. Once the user has logged in, they can begin managing their portion of the website.

Just remember to adjust their permissions accordingly so they only have access to the areas they need.

Here’s more information from Squarespace about permissions.

If you have multiple contributors, you can use permissions to limit access to areas that are relevant to each contributor’s work. This guide explains what each contributor role can and can’t do, so you can decide which permissions to assign to your team.

• You can assign a contributor multiple roles, or make them an administrator so they have the permissions of all other roles.
• To publish blog posts by different authors without giving them contributor permissions, add them as basic authors instead.
• Domains linked to parking pages can only have an owner and administrators. Other permission levels aren’t available on parking pages.
• Contributors can remove themselves at any time.
• If your company wants to purchase or manage sites in bulk with multiple site contributors, you can work with us to create a customized solution. To learn more, visit our Enterprise page.
