Customizing buttons using Squarespace’s native features is super easy. But what if you have a special promotion or event or ‘who knows what’ that you want to highlight?

You already know how important it is to use the same color and text on your respective CTAs on your website, and this one needs to be different.


In this blog post tutorial, I show you how easy it is to change the color of a single button in Squarespace using CSS.

 
 

How to Change the Color of a Single Button in Squarespace

In Squarespace, we already have a few options for customizing our buttons. I'm going to show you what to do when none of these options are going to work for you.

  1. You're going to go to a Website > Website tools > Custom CSS

  2. Copy and paste the code below (scroll down)

  3. For this next step, you're going to need the Squarespace ID finder Chrome extension installed in your Chrome browser

  4. Select the ID Finder from your Chrome browser and locate the block ID of the button for which you want to change the color and select it

  5. Go back to the CSS you just pasted, highlight, highlight ‘BLOCK ID GOES HERE,’ and paste

  6. Change the hex codes to match your brand colors

  7. If you don’t need a border, just delete that line from CSS


So easy, right?
