How do I troubleshoot Squarespace issues?

  1. 1

    Check Squarespace Status first

    Visit status.squarespace.com to confirm whether issues are system-wide before troubleshooting your own site.

  2. 2

    Flush DNS cache and retry

    If your domain is not resolving, flush your local DNS cache and try accessing from a different device or network.

  3. 3

    Test with your Squarespace URL directly

    Try visiting your site via yoursite.squarespace.com (without your custom domain) to isolate domain vs platform issues.

  4. 4

    Clear browser cache and cookies

    Stale browser cache can cause editor loading issues. Try an incognito window or a different browser.

  5. 5

    Contact Squarespace Support

    If the status page shows no incidents but your site is down, contact Squarespace Support for account-specific troubleshooting.
