Store page vs. product details page
Before styling your products, it's good to understand how Squarespace structures them on all sites.
When you add products to your store, they’re organized in two parts: store pages, which create a browsable landing page, and product details pages, which show details of individual products. These pages share some style tweaks and have their own style options. How you open the style tweaks depends on your site’s version.
Customize your store pages
Based on the device view you're in, you can set device-specific styles for some design elements, like text alignment and image aspect ratio. When applicable, the design setting includes the device (desktop or mobile) beside it.
How you style your store page depends on your site’s version.
Visitors to your store page find all your product featured images laid out in a grid. The store page shows up to 200 products. If there are more than 200 products, customers can click Next to view more products.
To style the store page section:
- Open the store page you want to edit.
- Click Edit.
- Click Edit Section on the store section. You can customize the details below. Changes apply only to this store section.
In the Elements tab, you can customize:
- Store title: Display the page title at the top of the section.
- Breadcrumbs: Display the navigation path visitors took before landing on their current page, excluding related products and filtered category pages.
- Categories label: Display the “Categories” label on the categories menu.
- Filters label: Display the “Filters” label on the filters menu.
- Filters: Add filters to help customers browse your products by tag.
- Product description: Show or hide the product description when you have the list layout.
- Price: Show or hide the price on the product thumbnail.
- Add to cart button: Displays beneath product thumbnails on the store page and on product details pages.
In the Design tab, you can customize:
- Layout: Display product thumbnails in a grid or list. In the list layout, display a preview of your product descriptions.
- Title alignment: Set the text justification for your store title.
- Menu placement: Display category navigation at the top of the section or as a sidebar.
- Categories style: Style your categories menu as a dropdown, subnav, or buttons.
- Number of columns in the grid layout (two minimum)
- Column and row spacing
- Background: Show or hide a background to surround your product thumbnail, similar to a picture mat. Set the background color, curve the corners, and choose the stroke type, color, and thickness.
- Button styling and alignment
- Image aspect ratio and text spacing
- Corners: The thumbnail background and product images can have square or curved corners.
- Section width and vertical padding.
- Divider: Display a divider between your store section and other sections on the page. Choose the divider shape, stroke type, color, and thickness.
In the Colors tab:
- Select a section theme for your store section.
- Click the pencil icon on a theme to customize it. Changes affect all sections using the theme.
Store page filters
Create product filters to help your customers find the products and services most interesting to them. Filters rely on product tags to display a selection of products on your store page.
You can add filters to store pages that have 200 or fewer products. The filter button follows your primary button styles.
Which style options are available depend on your site’s template family and its store page type.
Note: Galapagos and Supply follow different style tweaks. Visit your template guide for information about styling products.
To style store pages:
- Open the store page you want to edit.
- Return to the Website panel.
- Click Design.
- Click Site Styles.
- Use the tweaks in the Products sections to change the landing page style.
- For tweaks specific to individual product details pages, exit site styles, open a product, then re-enter site styles.
Tip:
- Click any area of the page in the preview to display only the style tweaks available for that area and hide the rest.
- If you have multiple store pages, style changes apply site-wide to all store pages to create a consistent look.
- Your template may have features, such as banner images or page headers, that affect how the store page looks.

Customize your product details page
How you style your product details page depends on your site’s version.
Any changes apply to all product details pages on the same store page. To style the product details page:
- Open the product details page you want to edit.
- Click Edit, then click Edit Section.
In the Format tab, choose from the following layout options:
- Simple: The product image and description display side by side, surrounded by whitespace.
- Wrap: Product images wrap around the description. Images are always aligned left.
- Half: The product image splits the page with the description. The image is always aligned left.
- Full: Product images display in a full-bleed carousel above the description.
If you select the Simple layout, you can customize these options:
- Content width.
- Image design and spacing: Choose from slideshow, stacked, or carousel designs when your product has multiple images. If the design is slideshow, thumbnails of the other product images display.
- Variant display.
- Text alignment.
- Content alignment: Choose from top or center. The top alignment may display padding between the top of the product image and the text. Content alignment is available for slideshow and carousel designs, not stacked.
- Form width.
- Product navigation style.
- Description position: Where the product description displays.
- Add to cart button: The Inline option places the button beside the quantity field.
- Gallery aspect ratio (slideshow and carousel design only): In the carousel design, the aspect ratio sets the proportions of the image container, but your image may not crop to fill it. We recommend adding images that have the same aspect ratio you choose in your settings.
- Gallery placement and width.
- Gallery thumbnail placement: Positions the product featured images when the design is slideshow.
- Carousel arrow size (slideshow and carousel design only).
- Click action: Choose from none, zoom or lightbox, depending on the design.
- Hover action.
In the Colors tab:
- Select a section theme for your store section.
- Click the pencil icon on a theme to customize it. Keep in mind, this affects all sections using the theme.
Customize product variants display
In the Simple layout, you can display variants as buttons or in a dropdown menu. All other layouts display variants in dropdown menus.
- Variant buttons: Follow your site's form styles. Open Site Styles, then click > next to Forms. Click Selection options, then click Radio.
- Variant dropdown menu: Follows the Variant fields font family, and its color depends on the section's color theme.
Note: The option to sign up for a product waitlist only appears when variants display in dropdown menus.
Style Add to cart and Checkout buttons on the store page
The Add to cart button can display beneath product thumbnails on the store page and on individual product details pages.
To preserve the look and feel of your product details pages, horizontal padding tweaks don't affect Add to Cart buttons. When a product is sold out, the Add to cart button appears dimmed.
On store pages, the button colors follow your product text and background colors. The Add to cart button on product details pages and the Checkout button on the shopping cart page both follow your Primary button style tweaks and your site's color settings.
Manage mini cart colors
The mini cart uses your section color themes to ensure it’s visible. The mini cart color automatically contrasts with your section background. To change the mini cart’s color, change the section's background color or edit your site’s color themes.
Can I hide the Add to cart button on my store page?
You can’t hide the Add to cart button without using custom code. This topic has come up in the Squarespace Forum, but falls outside our scope of support.
To promote your products without the option to buy them, you can display them on your site using a layout page with image and text blocks.
When does the quantity field appear on my store page?
The quantity field appears on the product details page if:
- The product's stock level is greater than one.
- It has variants, regardless of the individual variant stock levels.
To display the current stock level for each variant on the product details page, turn on limited availability labels. This will prevent customers from trying to add more than one product to their cart when the stock level is one.
You can't change the size of the quantity field. You can hide the quantity field for physical and service products in your checkout settings.
Customize related products
The related products section on product details pages follows the tweaks in the store section styles and your site-wide font tweaks.
If you sell subscription products, you can change the colors of the subscription frequency section of the product details page. Open your site's color themes and change the colors under Product details page: Subscriptions.
Which style options are available depend on your site’s template family and its store page type.
Note: Galapagos and Supply follow different style tweaks. Visit your template guide for information about styling products.
