How to Duplicate a Page in Squarespace

Duplicating a page in Squarespace is the process of creating an exact copy of an existing layout page, including all content blocks, images, and page settings.

Users need this feature when building multiple pages with similar structures, testing design variations, or reusing a proven page layout without starting from scratch.

This guide covers 4 steps requiring under 2 minutes. Beginner-friendly. Works on both Squarespace 7.0 and Squarespace 7.1.

Prerequisites

Before you start, confirm you have:

• An active Squarespace account with website access
• Owner or Administrator permissions on the site
• Squarespace version 7.0 or 7.1 (check in Settings > Advanced > Import/Export)

Time required: 1-2 minutes.

No coding knowledge needed.

What Types of Pages Can You Duplicate in Squarespace?

Not every page type supports the duplicate page function. Knowing which pages work saves frustration.

Pages You Can Duplicate

Blank pages, pre-made layouts (About, Contact, Services, Gallery, FAQs), scheduling pages, and course pages with fewer than 500 lessons.

Look for the page icon next to the title in the Pages Panel. If you see it, duplication works.

Pages You Cannot Duplicate

Index pages in version 7.0, collection pages (blogs, portfolios, stores themselves), and template-specific pages tied to your site structure.

You can duplicate individual items within collections. Blog posts, products, and portfolio entries all support copying.

Step One: How Do You Access the Pages Panel?

Open your site dashboard and click Website in the left menu, then select Pages to view your full site structure with all layout pages, collection pages, and navigation items listed.

Action

1. Log into your Squarespace account
2. Select the website you want to edit
3. Click Website in the left sidebar
4. Click Pages

You now see every page on your site organized by navigation section.

Purpose

The Pages Panel is your control center for all site content. Every duplication starts here.

Step Two: Where Do You Find the Page Settings for Duplication?

Locate the page you want to copy in the Pages Panel, hover over the page title to reveal the gear icon, then click it to open Page Settings where the duplication option lives.

Action

1. Hover over the page name in the Pages Panel
2. Click the gear icon (cog symbol) that appears
3. The Page Settings menu opens automatically

Purpose

Page Settings controls everything about individual pages: title, URL slug, SEO metadata, and the duplicate function.

Step Three: How Do You Duplicate the Page?

Inside Page Settings, navigate to the General tab, scroll to the bottom of the panel, click the Duplicate Page button, then confirm to create an identical copy of your layout page.

Action

1. Click the General tab in Page Settings
2. Scroll down to find “Duplicate Page”
3. Click Duplicate Page
4. Click Confirm in the popup

The copy appears instantly in the Not Linked section.

Purpose

Confirmation prevents accidental duplications. The Not Linked location keeps copies hidden from visitors until you’re ready.

Step Four: How Do You Customize the Duplicated Page?

Your new page needs a unique title, custom URL slug, and fresh content before going live; the copy retains “(Copy)” in its name and a numbered URL that you should change immediately.

Action

1. Click the gear icon on your duplicated page
2. Change the Page Title (remove “Copy”)
3. Update the URL Slug to something descriptive
4. Edit page content as needed
5. Drag the page to your navigation menu when ready

Purpose

Unique titles and URLs prevent duplicate content issues. Clean slugs look professional and help with search visibility.

2. Hover over the blog post
3. Click the three dots (…)
4. Select Duplicate

The copy appears as a draft with “(Copy)” in the title. Perfect for content templates.

How to Duplicate a Product in Squarespace

Action

1. Pages > Store > Products
2. Hover over the product

How to Duplicate Sections Within a Page (Version 7.1 Only)

In Squarespace 7.1, hover over any block section or gallery section while editing, click the duplicate icon, or use keyboard shortcuts to copy sections within the same page.

Action

1. Enter edit mode on your page
2. Hover over the section you want to copy
3. Click the duplicate icon, or press Control+C (PC) / Command+C (Mac)
4. Drag the new section to your desired position

Section duplication only works in 7.1. Version 7.0 users must rebuild sections manually.

Version Differences Between Squarespace 7.0 and 7.1

The duplication process works similarly across versions, but URL handling and available features differ.

Squarespace 7.0

• URL slug adds “-copy” suffix (e.g., /about-copy)
• Second copies become /about-copy-1
• No section duplication available
• Index pages cannot be duplicated directly

Squarespace 7.1

• URL slug adds number suffix (e.g., /about-1)
• Section duplication supported
• Auto layouts can be copied
• Gallery sections duplicatable

Verification

Confirm your duplication worked correctly before making changes.

Checklist

• New page appears in Not Linked section
• Page title shows “(Copy)” suffix
• All content blocks match the original
• Images and formatting transferred correctly
• URL slug is unique (check Page Settings > General)

Troubleshooting

Duplicate Page Button Not Visible

Check your permission level; you need Owner or Administrator access. Verify the page type supports duplication (not an index or collection).

Duplicated Page Has Same URL as Original

Open Page Settings > General and manually update the URL slug. Squarespace usually adds a suffix automatically, but glitches happen.

Cannot Duplicate Course Page

Course pages with more than 500 lessons cannot be duplicated. Remove lessons or duplicate individual lesson pages instead.

Content Missing on Duplicated Page

Page-specific headers, intro areas, footers, and sidebars do not transfer. Recreate these elements manually on your new page.

FAQ on How To Duplicate A Page In Squarespace

Can you duplicate any page in Squarespace?

No. You can duplicate layout pages, blank pages, scheduling pages, and course pages with fewer than 500 lessons. Index pages in version 7.0 and collection pages (blogs, portfolios, stores) cannot be duplicated directly. Individual items within collections support duplication.

Where does the duplicated page appear?

Duplicated pages appear in the Not Linked section of the Pages Panel. This keeps copies hidden from site visitors until you move them to your navigation menu. The page title will include “(Copy)” at the end.

Does duplicating a page copy all the content?

Yes, mostly. The copy includes all content blocks, images, layout settings, and page configuration. However, page-specific headers, intro areas, footers, and sidebars do not transfer. You must recreate these elements manually on the new page.

What happens to the URL when you duplicate a page?

Squarespace creates a unique URL slug automatically. In version 7.1, it adds a number (e.g., /about-1). In version 7.0, it adds “-copy” (e.g., /about-copy). Always update this slug to something descriptive before publishing.

Can you duplicate a page from one Squarespace site to another?

No. The duplicate feature only works within the same website. To copy content between sites, you need to manually recreate the page or duplicate the entire site first, then delete unwanted pages from the copy.

How do you duplicate a blog post in Squarespace?

Open Pages, click your Blog, select Blog Content, hover over the post, click the three dots menu, then select Duplicate. The copy appears as a draft at the top of your blog section with “(Copy)” in the title.

Is there a limit to how many pages you can duplicate?

No hard limit exists for page duplication. However, course pages with more than 500 lessons cannot be duplicated. Keep your site organized by deleting unused copies and maintaining a clean page structure in the dashboard.

Can you duplicate sections within a page?

Only in Squarespace 7.1. Hover over any block section while editing and click the duplicate icon. You can also use Control+C (PC) or Command+C (Mac). Version 7.0 does not support section duplication.

Do you need special permissions to duplicate pages?

Yes. You need Owner or Administrator permissions on the site. Contributors and other permission levels cannot access the Duplicate Page button in Page Settings. Check your role in Settings > Permissions if the option is missing.

Will duplicating pages hurt my SEO?

Not if you customize them properly. Change the page title, update the URL slug, and modify the content before publishing. Identical pages with similar URLs can create duplicate content issues. Always make each page unique.
