Pull your SmugMug photos directly into your Squarespace site and enable visitors to buy them through SmugMug's marketplace. Here's how to set everything up:

Add SmugMug Social Icon

  1. Navigate to Social Links panel
  2. Enter your SmugMug profile URL
  3. Enable "Show Social Icon"
  4. Save changes

Note: The social icon displays automatically in most templates. You can also add it manually using the social links block.

Connect SmugMug Account

  1. Open Connected Accounts
  2. Click Connect Account
  3. Choose SmugMug from Social Accounts
  4. Enter your SmugMug Display Name (found next to profile photo on homepage)
  5. Sign in with SmugMug credentials
  6. Click "Connect to SmugMug" to finalize

Import SmugMug Images

  1. Click "Import Albums to Squarespace" in Connected Accounts
  2. Select the album you want to import (one at a time)
  3. Choose up to 50 images
  4. Click "Finish & Import"
  5. Find imported images in a new gallery page under "Not linked"
  6. Drag pages to navigation sections as needed

Enable Sales Through SmugMug

Images automatically include clickthrough URLs to their SmugMug pages. In supported templates, visitors can click images to purchase directly through SmugMug's platform (separate from Squarespace Commerce).

Key Benefits:

  • Display up to 50 SmugMug images at once
  • Automatic purchase links to SmugMug
  • Easy gallery page creation
  • Seamless integration with your site design

Note: Import one album at a time and ensure your gallery pages are properly linked in navigation for the best visitor experience.
