How to Add SVG to Squarespace 2026, Embed SVG Logo File Easily

By Impran M N

SVG files are ideal for logos and icons because they stay sharp at any size, but Squarespace doesn't let you upload them like a standard image. This guide shows the most reliable way to embed SVG code on a Squarespace page using a Code block, plus what to check if it doesn't render.

01Log in and open the editor

Sign in at squarespace.com, select your site, and click Edit to reach the section of the page where you want the SVG to appear.

02Add a Code block

Click Add Block and choose Code, then paste your raw SVG markup directly into the code editor and click Apply.

03Turn off Display Source

If the SVG doesn't show up, check that "Display Source" is turned off in the Code Block settings — leaving it on shows the raw code instead of rendering the graphic.

04Save your changes

Once the SVG renders correctly, click Save to publish it to your live site.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I just upload an SVG file like a regular image in Squarespace?

Not reliably — the Code block method, pasting the raw SVG markup, is the most consistent way to get an SVG to display correctly.

Why isn't my SVG showing up after I added it?

This is often because "Display Source" is still enabled in the Code Block settings, which shows the code text instead of rendering the image.

Why use SVG instead of a JPG or PNG for a logo?

SVGs are lightweight and scale without losing quality, making them ideal for logos, icons, and other graphics that need to look sharp at any size.

Does this method work for animated icons too?

Yes, the Code block approach works for animated SVGs as well as static logos and icons.
