In this section, we will walk you through how to change your website template on Squarespace step by step so you can update your design without any headaches:<\/p>\n<h3>Step 1. Get ready for the Squarespace change template<\/h3>\n<p>Remember that template switches might shake things up to a certain extent, so it's highly recommended to research and prepare yourself for what is to come. Elements like headers, footers, background images, and sidebars, for instance, might reset once you switch. If they play a huge role in your site, we suggest picking a template that supports them so you don't have to start from scratch.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2. Find and install the new look<\/h3>\n<p>Now, head to the &#8220;Design&#8221; panel in your Squarespace dashboard, then click &#8220;Template&#8221; &gt; &#8220;Install New Template&#8221; and browse through the options to find a template that fits your style.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_82784\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-82784\" style=\"width: 787px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-82784\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/1-2.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-change-template-70-step-2\" width=\"787\" height=\"601\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/1-2.webp 787w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/1-2-300x229.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/1-2-768x586.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 787px) 100vw, 787px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-82784\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Step 2. Choose &#8220;Install New Template&#8221; and browse through the selection.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>See something that you like? Hover over it and click &#8220;Start with.&#8221; The new template will now show up in your &#8220;Template&#8221; panel, right below your current one.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3. Test drive your new template<\/h3>\n<p>Next, hover over the new template and click &#8220;Preview&#8221; to see how it looks.<\/p>\n<p>While you're logged in, you'll see sample content that gives you an idea of the layout. Your existing pages will temporarily move to the &#8220;Not Linked&#8221; section under &#8220;Pages&#8221; (don't worry, they're still there!)<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_82785\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-82785\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-82785\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/2-2.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-change-template-70-step-3\" width=\"650\" height=\"610\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/2-2.webp 650w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/2-2-300x282.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-82785\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Step 3. Preview the template.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>To back out, simply click &#8220;Cancel Preview&#8221; at the bottom; you'll return to your original template without losing any changes.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 4. Organize your pages<\/h3>\n<p>In the Preview Mode, open the &#8220;Pages&#8221; panel to clear out the demo content. Then, move your actual pages from &#8220;Not Linked' to the right navigation sections. (Deleting pages in preview mode can mess with your live site, so that's why we suggest moving them instead).<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_82786\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-82786\" style=\"width: 1118px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-82786\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/3-2.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-change-template-70-step-4\" width=\"1118\" height=\"546\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/3-2.webp 1118w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/3-2-300x147.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/3-2-1024x500.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/3-2-768x375.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1118px) 100vw, 1118px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-82786\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Step 4.

Make it your own<\/h3>\n<p>Here, open &#8220;Site Styles&#8221; to tweak fonts, colors, spacing, and other design elements. Visitors won't see your edits until you publish, so feel free to experiment! Every template has different customization options, though, so keep in mind that some settings may not carry over after switching Squarespace template.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_82787\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-82787\" style=\"width: 1347px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-82787\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/4-2.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-change-template-70-step-5\" width=\"1347\" height=\"595\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/4-2.webp 1347w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/4-2-300x133.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/4-2-1024x452.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/4-2-768x339.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1347px) 100vw, 1347px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-82787\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Step 5.

Let us tell you how to do it:<\/p>\n<h3>Step 1. Access the Site Styles editor<\/h3>\n<p>First, log in to your Squarespace account and open the Website you want to edit.

Still, before getting started, you should know which changes carry over and which ones reset when you switch templates. Some edits affect your live site instantly, while others remain in preview mode until you hit publish. Let's break it down!<\/p>\n<p><strong>What stays the same (No matter the template)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Not everything disappears when you change templates! The following elements will stay intact across templates:<br \/>\nPages and content \u2013 Your blog posts, products, events, galleries, and text blocks aren't going anywhere.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>SEO and page settings<\/strong> \u2013 URLs, featured images, and metadata remain the same.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Logo and site title<\/strong> \u2013 No need to re-upload your branding.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Custom code injection<\/strong> \u2013 Any special scripts or tracking codes you've added won't be erased.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Deleted pages<\/strong> \u2013 If you remove a page in preview mode, it's gone for good, so be careful!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What gets reset when you switch templates?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, some design choices don't carry over and will need to be reconfigured:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Fonts, colors, and backgrounds<\/strong> \u2013 These are unique to each template, so you'll need to restyle your site.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Custom CSS<\/strong> \u2013 If you've added extra styling, it may not work the same in your new template.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Navigation order<\/strong> \u2013 Pages moved in or out of the &#8220;Not Linked&#8221; section may shift.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Homepage settings<\/strong> \u2013 You might need to select a new homepage.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sidebars, footers, and headers<\/strong> \u2013 These could reset, so be prepared to redo them.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Demo content<\/strong> \u2013 Any placeholder content from the new template won't mix with your existing pages.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To avoid unpleasant surprises, make sure you have <a href=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/backup-squarespace-site\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>backed up (duplicated) your Squarespace site<\/strong><\/a> before making big changes.

Simple as it is, this little trick has helped many businesses catch hidden errors before they go live with their Squarespace change template.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Which Squarespace Template to Use?<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_82797\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-82797\" style=\"width: 1622px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-82797\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/14.webp\" alt=\"squarespace-themes\" width=\"1622\" height=\"1074\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/14.webp 1622w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/14-300x199.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/14-1024x678.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/14-768x509.webp 768w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/14-1536x1017.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1622px) 100vw, 1622px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-82797\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Squarespace has many beautiful themes.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Among the 180+ Squarespace templates, our team has compiled some of the best picks, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Brine<\/strong> \u2013 One of the most flexible and feature-rich templates, ideal for online stores.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bedford<\/strong> \u2013 A classic and polished choice, great for bloggers and agency portfolios.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Avenue<\/strong> \u2013 A clean, minimalist template perfect for showcasing photography and artwork.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Paloma<\/strong> \u2013 A modern and stylish option, especially great for podcasters.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dario<\/strong> \u2013 A bold, contemporary design for creatives who want to make an impact.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Want more options?

In Squarespace 7.0, you can switch templates directly through the \u201cDesign\u201d panel. However, in Squarespace 7.1, all templates share the same structure, so instead of changing templates, you can customize your site extensively using built-in Site Styles options.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-2\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Can you customize a Squarespace template?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Absolutely! Squarespace templates are highly customizable. You can adjust fonts, colors, layouts, buttons, animations, and more through the Site Styles editor to match your brand and style preferences.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-3\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Can I reset my Squarespace template?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>In Squarespace 7.0, you can reset your template\u2019s style settings to their default through the Site Styles panel, but demo content will not be restored. Meanwhile, in Squarespace 7.1, there is no reset option; you'll need to manually adjust styles or start a new trial site if you want a fresh start.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-4\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">How do I change my default theme in Squarespace?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>In Squarespace 7.0, the default theme is determined by the template you have installed. To change it, you need to switch to a different template through the Design panel. Once a new template is applied, it automatically becomes the default for your site.<\/p>\n<p>How about Squarespace 7.1? Since all templates share the same core structure, you cannot fully switch themes as in 7.0. Instead, you can modify the design by going to \"Design\" &gt; \"Colors\" and selecting a new color theme. This will update the default color settings for new sections and pages on your site.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Final Words<\/h2>\n<p>And just like that, you're ready to give your site a stunning <strong>Squarespace change template!<\/strong> The right design can make a world of difference in how your brand is perceived and how smoothly your site runs.<\/p>\n<p>Now that you've mastered the template switch, why stop there?
