How to Find the Seatext Configuration Menu in Your Squarespace Dashboard

Quick Answer: Where to Find the Seatext Configuration Menu

In your Squarespace dashboard, the Seatext configuration menu is not a standalone app or plugin. Instead, you access it through the Code Injection area under Settings > Developer Tools. This is where you paste the Seatext JavaScript snippet. Once the code is active, you manage Seatext's settings from the Seatext dashboard (the Main AI Hub), not from Squarespace itself.

Why This Matters for Your Website

Seatext is an AI platform that rewrites website copy in real time to match visitor intent, translates content into 125 languages, and recovers ad spend from bot clicks. Installing the JavaScript snippet is the only way to connect your Squarespace site to these capabilities. Without the snippet, Seatext cannot read visitor behavior, test headlines, or forward purchase data to ad platforms. The configuration step is the gateway to autonomous conversion optimization, multilingual expansion, and AI-driven SEO.

Step-by-Step: Accessing the Seatext Configuration in Squarespace

1. Log in to your Squarespace account. Go to squarespace.com and sign in with your credentials.
2. Open the website panel. From your account dashboard, click on the website you want to configure.
3. Click the three dots icon. This is usually located next to your website name or in the top-right corner of the website panel.
4. Select "Settings". This opens the main settings menu for your site.
5. Scroll to the bottom of the settings page. Look for the Developer Tools section. It is located at the very end of the page.
6. Click on "Code Injection". This opens the area where you can insert custom code snippets.
7. Paste the Seatext JavaScript code into the HEADER area. Make sure you paste it in the Header field, not the Footer or other fields.
8. Click "Save". This preserves your changes.
9. Publish your website. The changes will only take effect once your site is published.

What Happens After You Paste the Code

After saving and publishing, the Seatext AI remains inert until you activate it. To activate the AI and link it to your account, follow these steps:

1. Visit or refresh your website several times. Stay on your page for at least 40 seconds each time.
2. Wait at least five minutes. Then check the Seatext dashboard. You should see your website name displayed next to the Seatext logo at the top of the page.
3. If you don't see your website name after 10 minutes, contact Seatext support. This could indicate an installation issue.

The 40-second dwell requirement ensures the script loads fully and sends a heartbeat to Seatext servers. The five-minute delay accounts for DNS propagation and server-side registration. During this window, Seatext validates the domain against your account's primary URL.

Where to Configure Seatext Settings After Installation

Once your website is connected, you manage Seatext's configuration from the Seatext Main AI Hub (your Seatext account dashboard). Here's what you can do there:

• Activate AI agents. Choose which agents to enable on your pages, such as the Conversion Agent, Translation Agent, or Google Ads Agent.
• Click "Configuration". This lets you adjust AI parameters, such as which pages the AI runs on and how it behaves.
• Edit translations and variants. Seatext provides an initial round of automatic translations and copy variants for testing. You can log in to your Seatext account to review and edit them.

The Main AI Hub is a separate web application at app.seatext.com. It does not live inside Squarespace. This separation keeps your Squarespace dashboard clean and lets Seatext update its AI models without requiring platform updates.

Important Prerequisites Before You Start

Before you can install the Seatext script, you need a SEATEXT AI account. If you don't have one, create it on the Seatext website first.

Also, note that each Seatext account is linked to a single primary URL. If you need to use Seatext on multiple domains (e.g., a development domain and a production domain), you must create separate accounts for each domain.

Your Squarespace plan must include Developer Tools. Personal plans may lack the Code Injection feature. If you don't see Developer Tools at the bottom of Settings, upgrade to a Business or Commerce plan.

Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them

• Pasting the code in the wrong field. Always paste the Seatext JavaScript into the HEADER area, not the Footer.
• Forgetting to publish your site. Changes to Code Injection only take effect after you publish your website.
• Using a development URL like localhost. Seatext restricts development URLs for security reasons. Use a valid, real domain.
• Not waiting long enough for activation. After pasting the code, you must visit your site for at least 40 seconds and wait at least five minutes for the connection to appear.
• Using one account for multiple websites. Create a separate Seatext account for each website you want to use Seatext on.

Key Facts About Seatext and Squarespace Integration

Limitations and When This Advice Doesn't Apply

This guide applies to Squarespace 7.0 and 7.1, as both versions have the Code Injection feature in the same general location. However, if you're using a Squarespace plan that doesn't include Developer Tools (such as some personal plans), you may not see the Code Injection option. In that case, you'll need to upgrade your plan or use a different integration method.

Also, if you're using a dynamic development domain (like a temporary URL that changes), Seatext may not function properly because it can't reliably associate traffic with your account. Use a stable, real domain instead.

Seatext does not support Squarespace's built-in AMP pages or email campaigns. The JavaScript runs only on standard web pages served by Squarespace.

Practical Scenarios: When to Use Each AI Agent

After installation, you choose which agents to activate in the Main AI Hub. The Conversion Agent rewrites headlines and CTAs based on reading behavior. Use it on high-traffic landing pages. The Translation Agent serves 125 languages from edge servers with zero code. Enable it if you have international visitors. The Google Ads Agent rewrites landing page copy to match the search keyword that triggered the ad. Turn it on for paid search campaigns. The Bot Refund Agent detects invalid clicks and prepares refund claims for Google and Meta. Activate it if you run paid ads. The AI SEO Agent publishes crawlable Q&A pages that rank in AI overviews. Use it for long-tail traffic.

Decision Criteria: Choosing the Right Setup

Consider these factors before installing:

• Traffic volume. Sites with under 1,000 monthly visits may not see statistically significant lift from the Conversion Agent alone.
• Ad spend. If you spend over $500/month on Google or Meta ads, the Bot Refund Agent and Google Ads Agent often pay for the subscription.
• Multilingual needs. If 20%+ of visitors come from non-English countries, the Translation Agent adds immediate value.
• Technical resources. No developer is required for installation. The Code Injection method takes under five minutes.
