FOR NICOLE - HOW TO’S OF SQUARESPACE EDITING.

HOW TO - EDIT
- Go to the top right corner and press edit
- this will bring up the editing space, where you can add, rearrange, edit and change anything you want.
- the squares that show up when you click and drag something are your margins, use these to centre and move things where you want them.

EDITING SECTIONS:
- To edit any colours for sections or writing, just go to the right hand side and select ‘edit section’ or the little pen icon to bring up the text edit options.
- To edit the size or shape of the section, simply use the ‘edit section’ button again and adjust the width, height, divider etc through there (you can also use the little blue icon at the bottom of each section when you hover over it, to make a section bigger or smaller)
- Sometimes something won’t centre if it is an odd number of squares, so just stretch the box by one more square and it should center itself properly.

EDITING TEXT:
- To edit text simply click on the text box you wish to edit and tap the pen icon, this will bring up the list of editing options, similar to ‘word’ these functions are much the same and should be easily figured out.
- Make sure to highlight specific texts if you only want certain pieces edited.

ADDING A SECTION:
- To add a section, use the ‘add section’ button in the middle of the dividers, where you want the section to go (if you want to move a section up or down, simply use the arrows in the right hand side ‘edit section’ pop up)
- You can edit the sections colours and spacing with the ‘edit section’ button in the right hand corner.

ADDING BLOCKS:
- A block is just an additional item to the page, whether that’s a text box, image, shape etc.
- To add a block, simply hover over the ‘add block’ button in the top left corner of the section and select the item you wish to add.
- Move it around to where you want it but dragging it to the location.
- Any editing of the item should be found with the pen icon.

SEO:
- Most of the time squarespace will add this for you, but if you want to fully optimise your search engine, you can do so by
- going to the ‘website’ tab in the main left hand menu,
- Clicking on the ‘cog’ icon for page settings and going down to SEO
- From there you can edit and add anything you want google to preview and show when someone searches you key words

EDITING A BLOG:

- Click the ‘Plus’ button to create a new blog post
- In the blog settings you can add your title, cover photo, SEO etc
- To write or edit the blog, press the ‘edit’ button in the top left corner and write your blog post.
- Be sure to save it often just incase.
- In the main blog page (where all of them are shown) you can edit how the layout looks by pressing the ‘edit section’ button and adjusting the settings through there.

TO ADD A BUTTON:
- Simply ‘add block’ to the section you want the button, choose primary or secondary button options (can also be edited in the ‘paint brush’ icon at the top right)

HOW TO EDIT - FAQ’s PAGE:
- open the FAQ’s page
- go to the right hand side button
- Select ‘edit content’
