Hey friend,
First and foremost, Christy Price and I are doing an “Ask Us Anything” webinar tomorrow (Thursday) and I would love to see you in there!
These are live, info-packed, and fun discussions where we answer as many of your questions as we can. Register here, and ask a question in the Q&A tab. Even if you can’t make it live, you can still watch the replay!
Slider Plugin Update
Squarespace has made some recent changes that have had some effects on how background sections within my slider plugin appear. If you are using my slider plugin, be sure the background images and videos in the slider are showing up correctly. If not, update to the most recent version of the plugin. Get in touch with me if you’ve lost the password and URL to access the installation page and get the updated code.
State of CSS Survey
State of CSS Survey
For any of you CSS nerds out there, check out (and fill out) this State of CSS survey. This is an annual developer survey that catalogs and presents the most useful parts of CSS, and shows you which layouts & properties people are using most often. Results will be available in Early November. You can also check out the previous year’s results.
Copy (⌘C) and Paste (⌘V) for Blocks
A loud “finally” was sighed in relief…
Keyboard shortcuts for copy & pasting blocks (⌘C & ⌘V on a Mac) now works within a section, between sections, and between pages. This is a HUGE time saver! Copy & Paste blocks only works in Fluid Engine though, so that means no Blog Pages & no Squarespace 7.0 unfortunately…
Chrome Extension for Fluid Engine Spacing
Chris Schwartz-Edmisten documented an issue with spacing on tablet mode in Fluid Engine a couple months back. I created a work-around for this issue once I saw Chris’s video, but it was a bit cumbersome. Chris has since made an even better work-around utilizing a chrome extension to make tablet editing more functional and user-friendly. Check out the video on how to use it here.
