A Beginner’s Guide to Squarespace Content Links
You can use Squarespace content link blocks to add a clickable title for any specific page on your site.
Important info to know about content link blocks:
If you're using Squarespace version 7.1, content link blocks only show the page title.
There is a difference between content link blocks and regular text links: Text links are simple and great for quick references within your text. Content link blocks can take up more space, but they can have a unique text style, unlike a text link.
