In this Squarespace CSS tutorial, I want to show you how a little bit of custom code can pull a newsletter block between the main banner and the page content section of a Bedford Squarespace website. A few important things to note:

There is more than one way to do this! This is just one approach of many because code is super customizable.

You need to customize the size and placement values in this code. I recommend sticking with vw (view width) vh (view height) and percentages so the design stays responsive.

This code goes back to normal on mobile; remove the last line if you want to leave it between the two sections, but know that you might need to create a code specific for mobile if the values mess up the alignment.

You can add borders shadows and more to the newsletter block to customize it! A few of the codes are below but I want to encourage you to get creative here.

Here are the codes from the tutorial:
//--Create the floating newsletter
.newsletter-block {margin-top:-20%; background:#FFF; padding-top: 3rem!important; margin-bottom: 5vh; z-index:99}

//-- Add a drop shadow
.newsletter-block {margin-top:-20%; background:#FFF; padding-top: 3rem!important; margin-bottom: 5vh; z-index:99; box-shadow: 5px 5px 20px rgba(0,0,0,0.8);}

//-- Add a border
.newsletter-block {margin-top:-20%; background:#FFF; padding-top: 3rem!important; margin-bottom: 5vh; z-index:99; box-shadow: 5px 5px 20px rgba(0,0,0,0.8); border: 3px solid #50bdb8}
