Right click on the template and select duplicate

Click on edit in the top left hand corner

Begin editing the page, replace all the circled details, all photographs and videos with the details from the form. Don’t forget to replace the link to the chosen charity if there is one

Tribute and webcast videos of up to 30 mins can be uploaded directly into squarespace. However if the video is over 30 mins long then it will need to be uploaded into Vimeo first and then embedded into squarespace.

  • Log into www.vimeo.com and select upload from computer.

  • Upload the chosen file.

  • Once uploaded go to the main menu and click on the 3 dots under the video and select “copy embed code”.

  • Go back to Squarespace - select “add block” in the top left and then select embed.

  • Move the new block to the right place and replace “hello world” code with the code that’s in the clipboard.

Delete any unwanted content

Move all content back into new position, leaving small gaps (3 grid bars) between each section vertically. Horizontally align all content centrally to each other.

Select the most appropriate template - either a full digital page, tribute only, or basic page (no tribute or watch again)

Preview the page in both desktop and mobile view to check layout, making any adjustments necessary

Scan QR code to check final layout and have page QC’d

Take screen shot of QR code and save as an image so that it can be emailed to Odlings

Email the QR code, as well as the URL to Odlings (info@odlings.co.uk) copying in the site contact who made the request as well as the site postal address.
