Installing on Squarespace

Generate your StructuredAF code, paste it into your Squarespace site header, and save.

Once it's in, it applies right across your website, and there's nothing else to set up.

Before you start
  • Your StructuredAF profile filled in
  • Access to your Squarespace website settings
  • A Squarespace plan that includes Code Injection

Code Injection isn't available on Squarespace's entry-level plan, so if you can't find it, that's usually why. Their own plan pages will tell you where yours stands.

Three steps, start to finish

It helps to have your StructuredAF account and your Squarespace settings open side by side, since you'll be copying from one to the other.

1

Generate and copy your code

In your StructuredAF account, open Add to Site. With your profile and offers and FAQs filled in, click Generate, then Copy Code.

2

Open Code Injection in Squarespace

In your Squarespace settings, find the site-wide Code Injection area, then the Header field.

Squarespace moves their settings around from time to time, so if it isn't where you expect, a quick search in their help centre for Code Injection will get you there.

3

Paste and save

Paste your StructuredAF code into the Header field on a new line, then save.

If there's already something in that field, leave it alone. Add your StructuredAF code underneath it as a separate block rather than replacing what's there.

How you know it worked

Head back to your StructuredAF dashboard and click Scan Site. It reads your live website and shows you what it can find.

If your details come back in the results, you're done. If nothing shows up, it's almost always that the code didn't paste in full or the Squarespace changes weren't saved, so go back and check both.

When something changes

Squarespace doesn't update on its own, so when you change something in StructuredAF, you'll need to copy the new version across.

Go back to Add to Site, click Generate, and copy your code again. Then find your existing StructuredAF block in the Header field, replace it with the new one, and save.

The important bit is replacing rather than adding. Two versions sitting in there means two different accounts of your business, which helps nobody. Updating Your Profile goes through it properly.
