How long does a Squarespace 7.0 to 7.1 migration take?
There is no fixed timeline for a Squarespace 7.0 to 7.1 migration because it is a rebuild, not an auto-upgrade. The Squarewebsites Chrome extension copies pages, sections, and collections between the sites in a few clicks, but the overall time depends on how much content you have and how much template-specific rebuilding and style review the 7.1 site needs.
What the extension speeds up
The Chrome extension can move or recreate a site from 7.0 to 7.1 in a few clicks by copying pages, sections, and collections and importing content along with page styling (Squarewebsites). For a small site, the bulk content transfer itself can be quick.
What adds to the total time
- The number of pages and collections you copy across.
- Template-specific 7.0 layouts that have no direct 7.1 equivalent and need rebuilding (Squarespace platform facts).
- Custom CSS and developer-mode code that must be reviewed and re-applied on 7.1.
- Styling review across every page after the copy.
The product page does not give an estimated migration duration, so plan time based on your own content volume and the amount of manual rebuild work the 7.1 structure requires. whether Squarewebsites publishes any reference timeline for typical migrations.
