Every template in this directory is built for Squarespace 7.1, the current version, so you get Fluid Engine editing, modern sections, and the latest design features. Each listing links to the designer's page where you can confirm details before buying.

Squarespace 7.1 is the current platform version. It uses Fluid Engine for drag-and-drop editing, lets you change styles across the whole site easily, and supports modern sections and layouts. 7.0 is the older version with template-family limitations. All templates in our directory are 7.1, so they use the latest features.

For most people, yes. A professionally designed template gives you a polished, conversion-tested layout and saves days or weeks of design work, while still being fully customizable in Squarespace's no-code editor.
