Use the built-in share option to push new content to your preferred social media profiles as you publish it to your site. This is a great shortcut, cutting down the time of manually opening your social profiles and copying and pasting links.

Note: This isn't an automatic sync between Squarespace and your social networks. Repeat the steps to publish and share your content for every post you want to publish.

Avant de commencer

• To share content, you have to connect your accounts and select a push target if necessary first. It's not possible to share content without connected accounts.
• To ensure you connect your site to the correct account, log out of your social accounts before you begin. If you're logged in, the connection will default to that account.

What content you can share and where

You can push the following Squarespace collection items to these social media platforms:

	Facebook	Twitter	LinkedIn	Pinterest	Tumblr
Billets de blog	✓	✓	✓	✓	✓
Événements	✓	✓	✓	✓	✓
Produits	✓	✓	✓	✓	✓
Album Tracks*	✓	✓	✓	✕	✓
Gallery Pages*	✓	✓	✓	✓	✕

* Album Pages and Gallery Pages are only available for Squarespace version 7.0.

To share content to a different platform, or re-share after pushing, manually share the URL.

Restrictions

Plateforme	Restrictions
Facebook	Facebook interdit aux outils tiers comme Squarespace de partager des contenus avec des profils Facebook personnels au nom de quelqu’un d’autre. Vous pouvez tout de même publier des contenus Squarespace sur une page Facebook connectée (technique courante pour les entreprises). Vous pouvez également partager manuellement des liens dans une publication Facebook.  To learn about the difference between Profiles and Pages, visit Facebook's documentation.
LinkedIn	We currently support pushing content to personal LinkedIn profiles only. To share your site's content on your company's LinkedIn page or business account, you can post the link directly in LinkedIn.
Pinterest	Pour pouvoir être affichés sur Pinterest, les billets de blog et les produits doivent avoir des images miniatures.
Tumblr	Image Blocks and Video Blocks don't display in the dashboard view on Tumblr. Image Blocks appear as an External Image button in the dashboard view, and Video Blocks appear as rectangular icons. Both types of blocks display in full on the public view of a Tumblr blog. The following content from blog posts will display on Tumblr: Blocs Texte Blocs Image Blocs Markdown Blocs Citation Blocs Vidéo To display multiple images in a blog post, use multiple Image Blocks.

Connect your accounts

Before you can push content to your social media accounts from Squarespace, you'll need to connect your accounts:

1. Dans le Menu principal, cliquez sur Paramètres, puis sur Comptes connectés.
2. Cliquez sur Connecter un compte.
3. Select a service and enter your login credentials.
4. Click on the account you just connected.
5. For Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Pinterest, ensure Show Push Option is checked.
6. For Tumblr, select a Primary Blog from the drop-down menu.
7. For Facebook and Pinterest, select a push target.
8. Create a default post format to customize the text of the post.
9. Cliquez sur Enregistrer.
10. Repeat these steps for each account you want to connect. 

Select a push target (Facebook and Pinterest)

For Facebook and Pinterest, select a Push Target from the drop-down menu in each connected account's settings. This tells us where to post if you have multiple Facebook Pages or Pinterest boards.

For Facebook, select a Facebook Page (for example, your business or store's official page). For Pinterest, select a board. You can only set one Page or board for pushing content on each account.

If you don't choose a Page or board, your content won't push to the account. For Facebook, the Push Target drop-down is limited to 25 accounts.

Create a default post format

You can customize what appears in all posts to a social profile in its Default Posting Format field. Some text always displays by default in post previews. Customizing your default post format adds text in addition to the post preview.

This helps keep your posts consistent, but you can also customize each post individually when pushing to add more details. Repeat this step to customize each social profile where you publish your content.

Use a combination of custom text and the variables below to format your posts:

• %t - The title of the item you're sharing
• %a - The author of the item you're sharing
• %u - The URL of the item you're sharing

You must leave at least one variable in the field to push your post to most services, even if you choose not to customize the format. If you're using multiple variables, add spaces between them so the posts format correctly.

Here's how the formatting "%t %a %u" will appear on Facebook:

• Red - Title (%t)
• Yellow - Author (%a)
• Green - URL (%u)

Twitter best practices

When sharing with Twitter, always include the %u variable to ensure that your tweet will link to your content.

Pinterest best practices

When sharing with Pinterest, you don't need to include the %u variable because the post's URL pushes automatically.

Publish and share your content

After connecting your accounts and customizing your default posting formats, you're ready to start sharing your content as you publish it. How you push content to social media depends on the type of collection item you're sharing:

To share an item again on the same social network, manually share its URL. It isn't possible to post the same item multiple times using the push method. To learn what displays when you manually share a URL, visit How content displays in social posts.

To learn more about editing content, visit our guides on blog posts, products, Events Pages, Gallery Pages, and Album Pages.
