To connect a Squarespace domain to your site, ensure the domain is parked and both the domain and website are in the same Squarespace account. You'll need admin permissions for both.

Basic Requirements:

• Domain must be parked (not connected to another site)
• Domain and website must be in the same Squarespace account
• Admin permissions needed for both domain and website

Connect Your Domain:

1. Go to domains dashboard
2. Click your domain
3. Select Website
4. Click Connect Existing Websites
5. Choose the site to connect
6. Click Next, then Confirm

Change Domain Connection:

1. Access domains dashboard
2. Select your domain
3. Click Website
4. Choose Change Connection
5. Pick new site
6. Confirm changes

Remove Domain Connection:

1. Open domains dashboard
2. Select domain
3. Click Website
4. Select Change Connection
5. Choose Park this domain
6. Confirm removal

Important Notes:

• Cannot connect domain to specific pages (but can forward to them)
• Subdomains are treated as third-party domains
• If previously connected to third-party service, remove all records before reconnecting
• Keep billing and permissions separate from website
• Transfer domain instead of connecting if you want shared billing and permissions

For reconnecting after third-party forwarding, remove all external records and restore default Squarespace settings.

If you lack access:

• For website access: Request Admin participant permissions
• For domain access: Request domain administrator status
