How do I give TAPP Network access to SquareSpace?
Inviting a contributor
Add team members to your account who can help create and edit content on your site.
Every person with a Squarespace account who can log in and edit your content is a contributor. If you're not the only one who manages your site, domain, or other subscription, invite people to contribute and then control what they can see by assigning them permissions.
Note
If a new contributor can't accept the invitation, visit Accepting a contributor invitation for troubleshooting and tips.

Before you begin
- Only owners and administrators can invite contributors.
- On the Basic, Personal, and Cover Page plans (discontinued), you can add one contributor (for a total of two, including the owner). In other billing plans and on trial sites, you can add an unlimited number of contributors.
- Multiple contributors making simultaneous content edits can cause changes to overwrite each other. We recommend coordinating with your contributors to avoid issues.
- On parking pages, you can add contributors with admin permissions only.
- Squarespace domains that don't share billing information with a website have different contributor settings than those in this guide. To learn more, visit Managing domain permissions.
Note
If your domain migrated from Google Domains to Squarespace and it doesn’t share billing information with a Squarespace website, you’ll follow different steps than those outlined in this guide to manage your domain permissions. Visit these guides for help with:
- Removing yourself from a domain
- Changing ownership of a domain
- Adding domain contributors
- Managing Google Workspace users
- Merging multiple Squarespace accounts
