Facebook Like buttons help visitors share your content directly to their Facebook feeds. Here's how to add it to your Squarespace site:

For Version 7.1 Sites:

1. Get the Facebook Like Button Code:

• Visit Facebook's developer documentation
• Use the Like Button Configurator to generate custom code
• Copy both the Javascript SDK code and Like button code

2. Add the Javascript SDK:

• Go to Squarespace's Code Injection panel
• Paste the Javascript SDK code in the Header field
• Save changes

3. Place the Like Button:

• Open the page where you want the button
• Add a Code Block at your desired location
• Paste the Like button code
• Save and publish

For Blog-Specific Like Buttons:

1. Access Blog Settings:

• Open Pages panel
• Select your Blog Page
• Go to Advanced settings

2. Customize the Code:

• Paste Like button code in blog post item injection field
• Replace site URL with {permalink}
• Save changes

Note: The button may not appear while logged in. View in incognito mode to test.

Important Considerations:

• Disable existing Facebook share buttons in Version 7.0
• Code customization is not officially supported by Squarespace
• Button appearance may vary on mobile devices
• Future platform updates might affect functionality

For best results, ensure your site meets Facebook's content guidelines and maintain up-to-date code implementation.
