Quickly connect Dropbox to Squarespace to display your Dropbox images in gallery pages. Follow these three simple steps:

Step 1: Connect Your Dropbox Account

  1. Open Connected Accounts panel
  2. Click Connect Account
  3. Choose Dropbox from Social Accounts
  4. Log in with Dropbox credentials
  5. Click Allow

Step 2: Set Up Dropbox Folders

  1. Access your Dropbox account
  2. Navigate to /Apps/Squarespace/
  3. Create a folder named with your Account ID (found before .squarespace.com in your domain)
  4. Inside this folder, create separate folders for each gallery page
  5. Add your images to these folders

Note: Only .png, .jpg, and .gif files are supported. Add an underscore (_) before filenames to exclude them from syncing.

Step 3: Publish Your Gallery Pages

  1. Return to Connected Accounts panel
  2. Click "Publish to Squarespace" under Dropbox
  3. Find new gallery pages in the Unlinked section
  4. Drag pages to navigation sections as needed

Updating Your Galleries To sync new changes:

  1. Open Connected Accounts panel
  2. Click "Publish to Squarespace" under Dropbox
  3. Wait for sync to complete

Troubleshooting If you encounter sync errors after adding many images:

  • Wait a few minutes
  • Refresh the gallery page
  • Check if new images appear

Remember: Deleting folders or content in Dropbox will remove them from your Squarespace site as well.
