Code Injection lets you add scripts like analytics, tracking pixels, or third-party widgets to specific parts of your Squarespace site without editing individual pages. This guide covers finding the Code Injection settings and where to place scripts in the header, footer, and order pages.
01Log in and open your dashboard
Sign in at squarespace.com, using Continue with Google if linked, then open your website's backend dashboard.
02Find Code Injection
Use the search icon and type "code" to quickly reach Code Injection under your site's settings.
03Add header scripts
Use the header code injection box for scripts that need to load early, such as Google Analytics or SEO tags.
04Add footer scripts
Use the footer code injection box for scripts that can load later, like chat widgets or retargeting tools.

For scripts on the order confirmation or order status page, scroll to the Advanced settings within the Commerce section to add post-purchase tracking like a Facebook Pixel or Google Ads conversion tag.
