How to Hide a Page on Squarespace in 2025

Need to keep a page on your Squarespace site hidden without deleting it? Maybe it’s under construction, only for members, or you just don’t want Google to find it. Whatever the reason, here’s exactly how to hide a page on Squarespace fast.

Hiding a Page on Squarespace

There are three main ways to hide a page on Squarespace, depending on what you're trying to do:

1. Drag the Page to the “Not Linked” Section

This hides it from your site’s navigation menu, perfect if you don’t want users to find it while browsing.

  • Go to Pages in your Squarespace dashboard.

  • Drag the page into the Not Linked section.

  • That’s it. The page still works if someone has the link, but it’s hidden from your main site.

2. Password Protect the Page

Use this if you want to restrict access but still share it with specific people.

  • Click the ⚙️ (settings icon) next to the page.

  • Under Page Settings, find Password.

  • Add a password, only visitors with the password can view it.

3. Hide It From Google (Noindex)

Want to make sure Google doesn’t index the page?

  • Go to the page’s SEO Settings.

  • Scroll to the bottom and simply toggle the “hide from search results” option.

This tells search engines not to list the page in results. If you want more control over your site's SEO settings, our Squarespace SEO plugin makes these changes easier without digging into code.

When Should You Hide a Page?

Hiding a page can be useful for:

  • Launching a coming soon page before your full site goes live

  • Storing client-only resources like PDFs or reports

  • Creating a hidden sales page for promotions or email subscribers

  • Keeping test or draft pages from being seen or indexed

FAQs

Will a hidden page still be accessible?

Yes, if someone has the direct link, they can still access it unless it's password protected or blocked with code.

Will Google still find my hidden page?

If it's just in the “Not Linked” section, yes. To stop search engines, you need to add the noindex tag or use password protection.

Can I hide a blog post the same way?

Yes. You can unpublish it or schedule it for later. Learn more in our guide on how to blog with Squarespace.

Is there a way to hide an entire site?

Yes, go to Settings > Site Availability, and set your site to “Private” or “Password Protected.”
