How To Create Custom Section Dividers In Squarespace
One way to make your website more visually appealing is to add custom section dividers. There are two ways to do this in Squarespace: one is with a bit of CSS magic and the other one is with the help of the SquareKicker extension. In this tutorial, I’ll walk you through the process of adding custom section dividers using SquareKicker.

Prefer written instructions? Here’s a step-by-step breakdown:
For this tutorial, I'll be using the SquareKicker extension so you’ll need to have that installed on your website. The good news is that they offer a 14-day free trial so you can try it out and see if it’s right for you.
Another thing you need to know is that you can use these section dividers on both sections that use background images as well as in those who use that use solid color.
Once you’ve installed SquareKicker, click on any page you want to edit and click the Edit button. Then, find the section you want to modify. You’ll notice the little SquareKicker icon is now visible. Click that icon and then press the Dividers option.
You can choose whether you want the top divider or a bottom divider. After you’ve selected a divider, you can select how you want the divider to look. You’ll also notice there are several options for styling the dividers. These include:
the placement
the color (you’ll want to match it with the color that's in the section below to make it look seamless)
the height
and more.
You can also set different dividers for the top and the bottom, if that’s something you like. There's lots of options to explore and play around with. So, if you haven't checked out the SquareKicker extension, be sure to do. Keep in mind that if you decide that you don't want to keep up the subscription, you can cancel your plan and the changes will stay on your website. You just won't be able to use it for any new customizations. That’s it for this tutorial, and I’ll be back soon with another one.
