Question 1

How do I add a table to a Squarespace page?

Accepted Answer

Squarespace has no built-in table block, so you add a table using the Custom Table Block plugin from Squarewebsites. After purchasing, paste the provided CSS into Header Injection and the JavaScript into Footer Injection (requiring a Business plan or higher), and a "table" option appears in the Content Block menu. You then populate the table from a Google Sheet, a CSV file, or manual entry.

Question 2

Does Squarespace have a native table block?

Accepted Answer

Squarespace does not include a native table block. There is no built-in content block for creating HTML5 tables in the Squarespace editor on either version 7.0 or 7.1. To display tabular data you use a third-party plugin such as the Custom Table Block from Squarewebsites, which hooks a Markdown block to render proper HTML5 tables with text, images, and links.

Question 3

What is the Custom Table Block plugin for Squarespace?

Accepted Answer

The Custom Table Block is a Squarewebsites plugin that creates HTML5 tables on Squarespace by hooking a Markdown block. It displays text, images, and links, and pulls data from three sources — Google Sheets sync (recommended, with auto-sync), a CSV upload, or manual entry. It supports unlimited rows and columns, is a one-time per-website purchase with no subscription, and works on Squarespace 7.0 and 7.1.

Question 4

Can I create sortable or filterable tables in Squarespace?

Accepted Answer

The Custom Table Block itself does not document built-in column sorting or filtering. To make a Squarespace table searchable, you pair the Custom Table Block with the Universal Filter plugin, which adds live search and filtering to Table Blocks alongside blogs, products, and galleries. Native sort-by-column behavior is not confirmed in the product documentation, so confirm on the product page before relying on it.

Question 5

How do I make a pricing table in Squarespace?

Accepted Answer

Squarespace has no native table block, so you build a pricing table with the Custom Table Block plugin. Add plan names, prices, and feature columns as table data from a Google Sheet, a CSV upload, or manual entry — the block accepts any data, including pricing. Style the rows with Google Sheet formatting or custom CSS classes, and use the site's default font unless you override it.

Question 6

Can I import data from a CSV or spreadsheet into a Squarespace table?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Custom Table Block accepts data from three sources: a Google Sheets sync (recommended, because edits auto-sync into the table), a CSV file upload, or manual entry. Google Sheets sync is the preferred method when your data changes often, since updates to the sheet propagate to the live table automatically. There is no limit on rows or columns regardless of the input method.

Question 7

Does the Custom Table Block work on mobile in Squarespace?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the Custom Table Block works on mobile, but tables are not automatically shrunk to fit the screen. By default a wide table displays in segments with horizontal and vertical scrolling enabled so no data is hidden. If you need the entire table to fit within the viewport on small screens, you can shrink the whole table using custom CSS rather than relying on the default segmented scroll behavior.

Question 8

How do I style a table to match my Squarespace site design?

Accepted Answer

The Custom Table Block keeps styling intentionally basic and prioritizes readability, but you can match it to your site design two ways: apply formatting through the connected Google Sheet, or write custom CSS. By default the table follows your site's font, and the block exposes per-row and per-cell classes (`.table-row-1`, `.table-cell-1`, and so on) so you can target individual rows or columns for colors, borders, and emphasis.
