In this video, you’ll learn how to create your own hover effects for Squarespace.

I’ll show you how to create a basic hover code that changes a button color on a hover, adds a filter to an image on a hover, and how to use item hierarchy to create a hover effect for list items.

I am using version 7.1 in this tutorial, but the code concept works for older versions too.

Here are the codes from this tutorial.

Change a standard button background color on a hover:
.sqs-block-button-element:hover{
background-color: red!important
}

Add a filter to an image on a hover:
.sqs-block-image:hover {
filter: grayscale(1)
}

Change a list item button color on a list item hover:
.list-item:hover .list-item-content__button {
background-color: red!important
}
