By Impran M N
Removing a banner can completely change the feel of your Squarespace homepage, whether you're rebranding or simplifying your layout. This guide covers locating the banner section, deleting or hiding it, and troubleshooting if it won't go away.
01Log in and open the site editor
Sign in to Squarespace, using Continue with Google if linked, select your site, then click Edit Site to enter editing mode.
02Locate the banner section
Navigate to the page with the banner, and hover over it until it becomes highlighted or editable — many templates show a banner above the fold.
03Delete or hide the banner
Click on the banner section and look for the trash can icon to delete it, or check for a hide-section option if it's a background-based banner.
04Troubleshoot if it won't remove
If the banner isn't removing, confirm you're editing the correct section, since some banners are controlled by section backgrounds rather than standalone image blocks.
05Save and confirm
Click Save after deleting or hiding the banner, and click it again if needed to fully confirm the change is published.
Frequently asked questions
Why won't my Squarespace banner delete?
In some templates, the banner is controlled by a section background rather than a standalone image block, so double-check you're editing the right element.
Can I hide a banner instead of deleting it permanently?
Some templates offer a hide-section option instead of deletion, letting you bring the banner back later if needed.
Do I need to click Save more than once?
In some cases yes — click Save again to fully confirm the banner removal has published to your live site.
Will removing the banner affect other pages?
No, removing a banner only affects the specific page or section you're editing, not the rest of your site.
