Does this video carousel plugin work with Squarespace 7.1?

Yes. This plugin is built exclusively for Squarespace 7.1 and fully tested on the platform's current architecture. It uses a Code block the standard method for adding custom functionality in 7.1. It requires a Business Plan or higher, as Code blocks are not available on Personal or Basic plans.

Do I need any coding experience to install it?

None at all. If you can copy text and paste it into a field on your computer, you can install this plugin. Step-by-step written instructions are included with every purchase. Most users complete the setup in under 5 minutes.

Which Squarespace plan do I need?

Business Plan or higher. Squarespace Code blocks how this plugin installs are available on Business, Commerce Basic, and Commerce Advanced plans only. It will not work on the Personal or Basic plans.

Does it support YouTube, Vimeo, and native uploaded videos?

Yes. All three are fully supported and auto-detected. YouTube and Vimeo thumbnails are fetched automatically. Native videos uploaded directly to Squarespace are played in the lightbox via DOM transplant no quality loss, no extra steps.

Will my videos look square or broken on mobile?

No. This is one of the most common complaints with DIY carousel solutions on Squarespace. This plugin maintains correct 16:9 aspect ratios on all screen sizes desktop, tablet, and mobile without any extra configuration.

Will this plugin slow down my Squarespace website?

No. Unlike SaaS-based tools that inject external scripts on every page load, this plugin is entirely self-contained. It uses YouTube's and Vimeo's own embed infrastructure the same technology used on millions of websites globally with no third-party script loading overhead.

What's the difference between Single Row and Dual Row?

Single Row shows one continuous horizontal row of cards with dot navigation the active card scales up and brightens. Dual Row shows two rows scrolling in opposite directions simultaneously for a bold, cinematic look. Both styles support hover, drag, tap, swipe, and full-screen lightbox on all devices.

Do I need to manually add video IDs or configure anything?

No. The carousel scans your page and auto-detects all Video blocks. You just add your Video blocks, place the Code block where you want the carousel, and save. No IDs to copy, no settings to configure.

How many videos can I add?

There is no hard limit. The carousel scrolls horizontally, so you can add as many as you want. Most users find 5–12 videos creates the best browsing experience. More than 20 is possible but may affect initial load speed.

Will the carousel be visible in the Squarespace editor?

No and this is expected. The carousel only renders on the live published page, not inside the editor preview. Exit edit mode after saving to see it working.

Is this a one-time purchase or a subscription?

Completely one-time. Single Use is $25, Multi Use is $45. No monthly fees, no annual renewals, no account to maintain. The code you receive is yours permanently, regardless of any future changes to Squarespell's pricing.

Can I mix YouTube, Vimeo, and native videos in the same carousel?

Yes. All three types can appear together in a single carousel. The plugin detects each type independently and handles thumbnails and playback correctly for each.
