Secondary Color Palette Support (Page/Section Level)

Hi Will, I’m currently building a Squarespace site where this limitation is becoming very clear. The main site (main-site.com) uses a primary brand palette defined in Site Styles. Within that, I’m also building what is essentially a second brand experience at: /secondary-site/ (with pages like /about, /rentals, /events, etc.) This sub-brand has its own distinct color palette, but it still lives inside the same Squarespace site. CURRENT WORKAROUND body { --white: #ffffff; --lightAccent: #fcecd5; --accent: #b24b1b; --darkAccent: #474f45; --black: #000000; } From there, I have to manually apply these across sections using selectors. THE CHALLENGE Site Styles works great for the primary palette, but there’s no native way to apply a secondary palette to: A group of pages (e.g. everything under /secondary-site/) Specific sections within a page To achieve this currently, I have to: Define a second set of CSS variables Target sections/pages via IDs or collection IDs Override styles for backgrounds, text, buttons, links, etc. Maintain a growing list of selectors like.section-background,.sqs-button-element--primary, etc. It works, but it’s not scalable or easy to maintain. WHAT WOULD HELP A way to define and apply a secondary color palette alongside Site Styles: Create “Palette B” (mirroring Site Styles structure) Apply it at: Page level (ideal for /secondary-site/*) Section level (for mixed-brand layouts) Automatically style all native elements within that scope: Backgrounds Headings & body text Buttons (all types) Links Borders / strokes IDEAL UX Page setting: Color Palette → Default / Palette B Section-level dropdown for palette selection Or a class-based approach (e.g..palette-b) WHY THIS MATTERS This pattern comes up often in real builds: Sub-brands within one domain Program-specific landing pages Multi-offer businesses Even just needing additional accent color systems Right now, it requires a lot of custom CSS and manual consistency management. A built-in or plugin-based solution using scoped variables would make multi-brand builds much easier and more maintainable. I would absolutely pay for something like this. Thanks for considering this ✌️

New Plugin - Gallery Rollover

Please consider creating a plugin that creates an image gallery with a disjointed rollover, where a mouse interaction (click or hover) on a thumbnail trigger area causes a larger image of that thumbnail to display in a separate target area, like this: Ideally with a way to customize the Slideshow’s thumbnail strip container, so you could easily move it from below the “main” target area to appear on either side. And have control over the positioning of the Slideshow target area and set its dimensions. If possible, it’d be great if there was an option to add a rollover to each thumbnail itself (Example: On Desktop, on hover optionally displays the Title of the image, other metadata, or another image) as well as being a button trigger (on click, the corresponding thumbnail image displays in the larger Slideshow target area). And it’d be amazing if there was an auto-play option with a speed control, so you could optionally set the Slideshow to automatically display thumbnails one-by-one in the target area with no user interaction required. Thank you for your excellent work! I love your plugins.

ID Finder Suggestions

It would be fantastic if, along with the ID Finder, it can identify the Site Style used, the Heading Number, and Paragraph Number as appropriate. In addition, it would also be immensely useful to have the following. For 7.1, a summary of 1. which site styles are used on a website 2. where each site style is used - page, section 3. which headings (headings 1 through 3) are used on a website 4. where each heading is used - page, section, block 5. which paragraphs (paragraphs 1 through 4) are used on a website 6. where each paragraph is used - page, section, block If you ever do the above, if there is a way to announce it to users of the Squarespace ID Finder users, that would be fantastic. Thank you very much.
