Quickly connect your Dropbox account to display images on your Squarespace Gallery pages with these simple steps.

Connect Dropbox Account:

  1. Navigate to Connected Accounts panel
  2. Click "Connect an Account"
  3. Select Dropbox from Social Accounts
  4. Enter Dropbox credentials
  5. Click "Allow"

Set Up Dropbox Folders:

  1. Log into Dropbox
  2. Create folder: /Apps/Squarespace/[Your-Account-ID]
    • Account ID is the first part of your built-in domain (before .squarespace.com)
  3. Create subfolders for each Gallery page
  4. Add images to respective folders

Supported File Types:

  • .png
  • .jpg
  • .gif Note: Add underscore (_) before filename to exclude specific images

Publish Gallery Pages:

  1. Return to Connected Accounts panel
  2. Click "Publish to Squarespace" under Dropbox
  3. Find new Gallery pages in Not Linked section
  4. Drag pages to navigation menus as needed

Sync Updates:

  1. Open Connected Accounts panel
  2. Click "Publish to Squarespace"
  • Changes in Dropbox folders reflect on your site
  • Deleted items are removed from site automatically

Troubleshooting: If you encounter a Sync Failure after adding many images:

  1. Wait a few minutes
  2. Refresh Gallery page
  3. Verify new images appear

Remember: Each new folder becomes a Gallery page on your site, and you must re-sync after making any changes to Dropbox folders.
