Datepicker for publication status

Squarespace allow you to change the publication date of your blog posts via a datepicker, but there is an annoying problem that we can only switch the date month by month, make it extremely painful to update the date that is years ahead of the current date.

Therefore I made this snippet in order to help you to save tons of clicks by providing the month and year views for the datepicker, you will find it useful if you are

  • Migrate content between Squarespace websites

  • Change the order of blog posts

  • Import content from other platform to Squarespace

Mar-2024 Update: The new Calendar picker now can be accessible in Blog Post and Event Settings, allow you to edit the publish date of events as well! Now it can be found on

To apply it to your website, follow these simple steps:

<!-- sqs:beyondspace--pubdate-picker -->
<script>
(()=>{if(window.top&&window!==window.top){var e="beyondspace--pubdate-picker";if(!window.top.document.getElementById(e)){var t=window.top.document.createElement("script");t.id=e,t.src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/BeyondspaceStudio/beyondspace-snippets@0.0.44/src/pubdate-datepicker/index.min.js",window.top.document.body.appendChild(t)}}})();
</script>
