Trove

Trove is a Squarespace 7.1 shop template by GoLive built for product businesses. The demo is a home goods store selling decor, art, furniture and kitchenware: a rotating hero of collections, a best sellers row, an as-seen-in strip, an about section, four collection tiles, a values strip and reviews. GoLive list it as Trove Shop; the same studio also sells a Trove Agency template for service businesses, which is a different product.

What you get

• Seven pages: Home, Shop, Shop Product, About, Services, FAQ and Contact
• Squarespace 7.1 with Fluid Engine, so sections are drag and drop in the standard editor
• A Shop All page with category filters, and a header menu that links straight to each category
• A styled product page, an FAQ page for shipping and returns, and a Services page if you also offer something beyond products
• A neutral, grey, brown and green palette that changes in the Squarespace style editor, no code needed
• A contact form and newsletter sign-up, plus GoLive's free five-day customisation course, customer community and unlimited email and Loom support

Who it suits

Home goods, homeware and gift brands first, and any small catalogue that benefits from category tiles: ceramics, candles, prints, textiles. The Services page makes it a fit for makers who also take commissions or run workshops. Fashion works too, though the demo's styling is calmer and more interiors-led than a clothing store usually wants.

Honest limits

Selling needs a Squarespace plan with commerce, which on current pricing means Core or higher with transaction fees, or Plus and Advanced without them. There is no blog page, despite what older listings said. Squarespace Commerce is simpler than Shopify, so a large catalogue with complex variants or wholesale pricing will feel the ceiling. GoLive's sales pages are templated, so judge the template from its demo rather than the sales copy.

How it is delivered

Within 24 hours of purchase GoLive send a contributor invite to a new Squarespace trial site with Trove installed. If you already have a Squarespace 7.1 site they can install the pages into it as a paid add-on. You customise fonts, colours, images and text in the standard editor, then subscribe to a plan when you are ready to publish. GoLive customers get an extended six-month Squarespace trial and 20 per cent off the first year of an annual plan.
