A Couple Of Days On SQSP6

(SQSP6 == the new Squarespace 6 platform)

I think I fixed most of the bugs I encountered when I imported my old website into the new platform. Some links might not work, but my custom 404 - page not found page should guide the unfortunate visitors to the correct content (I hope).

The platform is still in development (@squarespace6), so new features are added continuously. The things I miss most at this moment are the following:

  • Decent editor for writing posts / pages.
    I miss HTML view, font selection, and some other text attributes (like strike-through, and font coloring).
  • Add IP filters on the logging to exclude certain IP addresses.
    Since I test with several browsers on different locations I have a lot of my own traffic polluting the logs.
  • A file manager for uploading (small files) to serve to the audiences.

When you're used to the old Squarespace platform, it takes a while to getting used to the new (management) interface. It definitely is a complete redesign of the (user)interface. (which is NOT a bad thing).
