From your Site Manager, navigate to the Settings  area and click the Contributors tab. 

Step 2 - Add a Contributor

First, click the + Add Contributor button in the top right.

You will be prompted to enter the contributor's name, email address and select the permission group(s) you wish to grant. Permission groups include:

• Administrator - Full permission to access everything on your website.
• Billing - Lets users update the credit card on file for the site.
• Comment Moderator - Can edit comments and leave comments on your site.
• Content Editor - Can edit content on your site but can not change settings.
• Reporting - Gives users access to your website's activity statistics.
• Trusted Commenter - Can bypass comment moderation.
• Store Manager - Receives store notifications, can add, remove, and manage products, as well as manage customer orders within store.

Click the Send Invite button after selecting the permissions to send your invitation.

Invited contributors will appear under the Invites Sent area. 

Your contributor will be prompted to login to Squarespace and create a Squarespace account.
