Square website not user friendly

MBlichmann — Mon, 15 Feb 2021 19:06:43 GMT

I have set up my own websites for years. I have NEVER had this much trouble trying to input my products on this website. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to add more than 4 photos in a featured section. I am ready to quit and go to another online website. This is the most frustrating setup I have ever encountered. Definitely NOT user friendly!

HI, you can change how many Featured Items within the Editor.

Here are the breadcrumbs and screenshot to locate.

Online Dashboard, Website, Edit Site, click Featured Items, scroll down to Customize, click Layout - you can choose from 4 different layouts, you can change Size S, M or L - you will see arrows (< >) appear above the items to indicate more items displayed, click Done

Best advice, click around the Online editor, it offers so much. You can add Sections, Pages, Stories, Photo Gallery, Embed Code, etc.

After being on BigCommerce, Shopify, Wix, PappaShop and many more over the years, Square Online Store is by far the easiest platform to create an ecommerce store and website.

I'm sorry to hear you are having a frustrating experience, @MBlichmann

@Goldneye provided some instructions that are spot on. I also agree with their advice to click around the editor to get familiar with the tools. It might also help to add a test page to try out the different sections as well. You can always delete a test page by clicking the dropdown in the top left corner, then the three dots to the right of the page name.
