SquareKicker offers you the ability to optimize your designs for Desktop, Laptop, Tablet and Mobile. Ensuring your work is perfectly displayed every time.

Yes! SquareKicker is now fully compatible with both the Classic Editor and Fluid Engine. We are so excited about Fluid Engine, it is not an overstatement to say Fluid Engine + SquareKicker is an exciting advancement. The freedom of Fluid enables you to control blocks like never before also allowing SK tools like Scrolling Effects and Sticky Blocks to new heights.

SquareKicker Tools on Fluid Engine look a little different from SquareKicker Tools on Classic Tools. The same tools exist on Fluid as they did for Classic, but now there is more functionality and new features that exist specifically for Fluid Engine.

For more information on Fluid Engine, check out our 8 Min Overview of Fluid Engine.

During a free trial, you will have full access to all of SquareKicker’s functionality, including Premium Features. SK changes made during your trial will save to the SK server and your Squarespace’s code injection area just as if a developer were to write it.

Once your trial has expired, your SK changes will disappear and the SK extension will become disabled. If you want to continue working with SquareKicker, upgrade to any paid plan and all your changes will be re-applied. If you used any premium features during your trial, these will only be available on a Pro Plan or higher.

Like any custom code, there are some vulnerabilities if Squarespace make changes. However, SquareKicker has taken significant steps to ensure this will have minimal impact on SK users.

Every tool we develop we think about the simplest way to target elements on a site to mitigate any risk. If a bug is ever picked up, we can work a fix and roll out updates directly to your website.

It’s also important to note that we are not dependent on Squarespace’s UI (User Interface) where most of the code changes and updates happen. SquareKicker has its own UI leaving it incredibly resilient to Squarespace updates.

YES! You can build your clients site using SK. This is best done using our designer plan where you can design up to 10 websites at a time. Once you are finished with the build you can either

a.) Keep this website in your list of “active websites list” on your designer plan,

b.) Remove the website from your “active list”. This will disable SquareKicker from making further changes but all existing changes will stay even on an expired plan. If you wish to make changes at a later date you can add the site back into your designer list.

c.) If your client wants to make their own changes they can start their own subscription and the website can be transferred to their own plan.

Yes, you can uninstall SquareKicker and all your saved changes are backed up to our server. But when you uninstall SquareKicker your changes are removed from your site.

To Uninstall, go to your main SK menu in the upper right-hand corner, Account > Uninstall. SquareKicker will do a complete uninstall and remove your SK installation script and SK custom Code in your footer injection area.

To reinstall, add your unique SK script (from your SK Dashboard) to your footer injection area. SquareKicker will install on your site and all changes from your latest backup will be restored.

Once on a paid plan, all your saved will be saved in your sites’ code injection area forever and are backed up to our SK server, even if your subscription expires.

SquareKicker creates compliant HTML, CSS and Javascript and stores it directly into your website’s Code Injection area. Your changes are backed up on SquareKicker’s server so you have peace of mind and never have to worry about losing your changes.

Your custom SquareKicker code runs super fast as the code is stored in your Squarespace code injection area, rather than an external server. In fact, in most cases, your SquareKicker code might even load faster than the Squarespace CSS stylesheets. The SquareKicker extension only runs while in Squarespace admin mode which means it is super lightweight in terms of loading time to your site.

Technically speaking, this means that the only speed impact will be the amount of customization you add to your site similar to any extra custom CSS or JavaScript you add manually. However, all of your SquareKicker code is compiled & minified for speed and performance before it is saved to your site.

All changes will remain on the site even after the subscription has expired or been cancelled. You will not be able to make further changes using SK until your subscription has been updated. If you wish to use SK on the site again you can reactivate subscription using the original connection process. So you can customize your site without ongoing costs to you or your client, thats a Win!

We have developed a healthy relationship with Squarespace as one of their partners. We strive to keep open communication with the Squarespace team as we find ways to develop this tool for the Squarespace Community while respecting Squarespace’s platform and the amazing work that they do!

If you want to use SquareKicker on another website you have two options:

1.) Create a new subscription for each website.

2.) Upgrade to a Designer plan and add another website to your active list.

The Annual Designer plan ($39) gives you the best value if you have 2 or more websites compared to 2 monthly Basic plans ($38) / 2 monthly Pro plans ($58)

No continual subscription is needed to keep SK changes active. All design changes made using SK will remain even after a subscription is expired or removed from a Designer or Agency Plan.

On the designer plan, you can have up to 10 active sites at any given time. Once you have finished a site you can remove it from your ‘active sites’ list freeing a spot for you to add a new project to your list. All design changes will remain even after the site has been removed from your active list, if you wish to come back to the site to make further changes simply reconnect the site to your account.

On a Designer Plan you can activate up to 10 websites per month or 25 on an Agency Plan. Connecting a new website, restoring an inactive one, or transferring a website from other subscription will all count towards your Monthly Activations. This number will be reset at the end of each month.

If your client would like to create more custom changes using SquareKicker they can sign up for an account and you can transfer the site to their own Subscription.

To use SquareKicker your Squarespace plan will need to be on a business plan or higher. This allows you access to the Squarespace premium features, which includes the code injection area where SquareKicker saves your sites custom code.

Note: SquareKicker will work on a Squarespace Free Trial as Free Trials have access to a the footer injection area. However, a Personal Squarespace plan will not work as these premium features are unavailable. https://support.squarespace.com/hc/en-us/articles/115015517328
