## How to update Beyondspace plugin settings

Some plugins work right out of the box, but for advanced tools like **Lightbox Studio** ou **Sélecteur de date Squarespace** , you can customize their settings to better suit your needs. To simplify this process, I’ve created dedicated playgrounds where you can easily tweak the default configurations.

#### The Modern Way: Ground Control

Starting in 2026, the easiest way to manage your plugins is through **Contrôle au sol** . Once you have installed the **Contrôle au sol**  extension on your site, you can change your plugin settings visually right from your Squarespace dashboard. There is need to copy or paste code; your changes are synced to your live site automatically.

- **Install Ground Control:** Contrôle au sol  is free to install.
- **Access the Menu:**Trouvez le **Ground Control icon** at the top left of your Squarespace editor after install.
- **Select Your Plugin:** Choose the specific plugin you want to tweak from the list.
- **Save & Sync:** Click **Enregistrer**  to persist your changes instantly to your live site.

*Astuce :* You can also use Ground Control to **activate a free trial** of any paid Beyondspace plugin. This allows you to ensure compatibility with your site before purchasing. Note that free trials work inside your **Squarespace Preview** only.

#### The Classic Way: Using the Playground

Here’s how to update the settings:

1. **Visit the Playground**: Access the plugin’s playground, where you can explore and adjust various settings (see below)
2. **Change the Settings**: Experiment with the available options to find the perfect setup for your website.
3. **Copy the Generated Snippet**: Once you're happy with the settings, switch to the **Code** tab and copy the newly generated snippet.
4. **Replace the Current Code**: Navigate to your **Footer Code Injection** area in Squarespace. Locate the plugin snippet (marked by unique opening and closing comment blocks), and replace the existing code with the new snippet.

```
<!--  sqs:beyondspace—lightbox-studio --> 
{... Code snippet}
<!--  /sqs:beyondspace—lightbox-studio -->
```

#### Lightbox Studio: A Feature-Rich Lightbox Plugin for Squarespace

Lightbox Studio is designed to enhance your Squarespace site with an interactive and visually appealing lightbox experience. To make customization effortless, it includes a **Live Playground** that allows you to preview and adjust settings in real time. You can access the Live Playground at Lightbox Studio landing page (near bottom)
