Turn your Squarespace summary block into a carousel
Coverflow, flat slider, peek, or center-grid — four layouts, one script tag. It enhances the summary block you already have, stays accessible, and turns into a swipeable track on mobile.
- Four layouts from one drop-in install — no developer needed
- Keyboard + screen-reader accessible; respects reduced motion
- Native swipe-and-snap on mobile
- Inherits your site's fonts and text colors by default
Customize your carousel
Why a carousel
A static grid of blog posts is easy to scroll past. A carousel draws the eye to your best content and fits more posts into the same vertical space — so visitors actually see what you've written.
It works on any page where you'd drop a summary block: your home page, a services page, a dedicated blog feed. You're not rebuilding anything — just making what's already there more visible.
Features
- Coverflow — a 3D, centered focus card with tilted neighbors, giving your posts a tactile depth that a flat list can't match.
- Flat slider — a clean row of cards that pages through your posts. Predictable, fast, good for dense content.
- Peek — one card fills the frame with a sliver of the next and previous showing, hinting at more.
- Center-grid — a paged multi-card grid that pages through your posts in batches.
- Inherits your site's fonts and text colors by default, with optional color and font overrides.
- Keyboard and screen-reader accessible; respects reduced motion preferences.
- Becomes a native swipe-and-snap track on mobile — no extra configuration.
- Works on top of your existing summary block — it doesn't rebuild your content.
How it works
- 1. Add a summary block to any page and give its section an ID in the Squarespace editor.
- 2. Use the customizer above to pick your layout and options, then copy your snippet — or purchase to get it emailed with your domain already baked in.
- 3. Paste it into Squarespace under Settings → Advanced → Code Injection → Footer. That's it.
Requires a Squarespace 7.1 site with a summary block.
FAQ
- Where do I paste it?
- Settings → Advanced → Code Injection → Footer. Alternatively, paste it into a page Code Block if you only want it on one page.
- Is it one-time or a subscription?
- One-time purchase. One license covers one domain.
- Can I preview it before connecting my domain?
- Yes — the carousel runs on your .squarespace.com staging URL with your license key, so you can test before you go live.
- Will it slow my site down?
- It's one small script loaded with
defer, so it won't block your page from loading. - What if I need help?
- Reply to your license email or contact us directly.
