A Beginner’s Guide to Squarespace Line Blocks

You can use a Squarespace line block to add a solid line to a page section.

Line blocks can help you create a visual separation in your website content with stylish horizontal lines.

Pop them in between text blocks or anywhere you want to visually organize your site.
