Re: Welcome to the Community Beta - Introduce yourself!

My name is Libby Patterson. I am a master perfumer, photographer, painter, entrepreneur. Thanks for inviting me to the Weebly community. I have just redesigned my website, and would love some help.

1. I connected my square account but am getting an error message when I click to buy button, it says it isn't a safe connection. This is why I chose the business account, I would love to get this fixed, and build my shop inside my website.

2. My shop button takes my customer to my squareup.com account. Is there a way to program that link to open my shop in a new window so that they don't navigate away from my Weebly site.

3. How do I add a picture to my blog posts? I add the text box in to write the blog but then after that I don't know how to add a photo. Thanks.

Likely many more questions, but THANKS in advance, for your responses.

XO L

Thanks for posting Libby! I moved this to our eCommerce board since your questions are largely related to that, and it'll get better visibility there.

As for your questions themes, let's see if we can get that sorted for you:


1. I connected my square account but am getting an error message when I click to buy button, it says it isnt a safe connection. This is why I chose the business account, I would love to get this fixed, and build my shop inside my website.

Do you have SSL set up for your site? Go to your Settings tab and see if you've checked the option to use SSL for your site.

2. My shop button takes customer to my squareup.com account. Is there a way to program that link to open my shop in a new window so that they dont navigate away from my weebly site.

It might be possible depending on where you're linking from.  Is this from your site navigation?  What I'd do is copy the URL of your store from the address bar of the browser, then use that URL with the External Page option on the Pages tab.  There's a checkbox to open the page in a new tab.

3. How do I add a picture to my blog posts? I add the text box in to write the blog but then after that I don't know how to add photo. Thanks.

Adding images to your blog posts is pretty much the same as adding them to regular pages.  Drag over an image, gallery, or slideshow element to your post and click it to add images to the element.

Thanks again for posting! Smiley Happy

Hi All, 

My name is Juli & I am setting up a website to sell aromatherapy products, essential oils etc, as complimentary to me work as a massage, bodywork therapist.

I have a GoDaddy Domain & Website that I am still building, and having a square POS I chose to go with the Square Online Store... I previously had a couple of items on Etsy, (and all these different platforms was getting confusing... so...) which I linked across to my website quite easily... but Square to GoDaddy doesn't seem to be so simple.

Can anyone offer me quidance on this? I was struggling to manage everything and was hopeful to streamline to what I have already working for me.

Kind regards,

Juli

Welcome! A Square Online Store would be totally separate from any GoDaddy hosting you have, since we host the site and you use our tools to build and manage it. You can use your domain with it, though, as long as you point it to us and have upgraded to a paid plan.
