- ⚠️ Grid Gallery Blocks in Squarespace 7.1
- By default, Squarespace 7.1 does not offer gallery blocks (unless you are a Squarespace Circle member). If you are not a Circle Member or don’t have access to the Gallery Block, we can help add the gallery block to your 7.1 website – free of charge!

- Plugin Notes
- - Only compatible with YouTube and Vimeo videos. - Images will display the native way and lightbox like normal. - Font family inherits from title and body settings. - Cannot be used with other plugins that use the grid gallery block.
- Troubleshooting (Plugin Not Working)
- - Disable AJAX settings in site styles (for 7.0 websites) - Ensure the video’s privacy settings will allow it to be embedded. - Do not upload a mix of videos and images in the same gallery. - Not compatible with video blocks or gallery pages. - For best functionality, we recommended that only one grid gallery block be used per page.
