Code statements is an alternative language dialect which allows us to invert #Script from "Template Mode"where all text is emitted as-is with only Template Expressions ... being evaluated and changed it to "Code Mode" where all codestatements are evaluated as JS Expression statements.
Which is useful in reducing boilerplate when you need to evaluate code blocks with 2+ or more lines without the distracting boilerplate of wrappingeach expression within a ... Template Expression.
One difference between them is that each line in a code statement block must be a complete expression, any expressions that spans multiple lines need to be wrapped withing Template Expressions where-by the source code for both Template and Code blocks remain exactly the same, e.g:
The same functionality in Sharp Scripts is also available in #Script Code, except instead of using the *.ss file extension for executing #Script you'd use the *.sc file extension which will allow you to use the x and app dotnet tools to watch or run code scripts:
Hi, I am trying to add an "Appfolio vacancy listing widget" into my new Squarespace page that is currently being built. I copy and pasted the HTML provided by Appfolio into a "code" block. And it says "Script Disabled." If I try pasting it into just a normal content block, nothing happens.
Any ideas???
Hi, I'm having the same exact issue. tuanphan - I tried to uncheck Display Source, but you're not able to if javascript is selected as the type in the dropdown. If I change the type to HTML, I can uncheck Display Source, though.... Any ideas?
You'll often see this message if you have a code block and you've added a script to it. The 'Script Disabled' message is Squarespace's way of explaining that Code Block scripts will not run when you are logged in to the website. It's a security feature that is designed to protect your site editor from code that may break it.
To see the code in action, visit your site in an incognito or private browser window without logging in to the site. You should then see what your page looks like to visitors, which may be slightly different than in the preview window. If your site isn't live yet, you may see a 'Private Site' message when you try to view your site. If you do, you'll need to follow one more step - to set a site-wide password that you can use to view the site without logging on.
The answer above from Paul is generally the most accepted answer, however. In my own experience, I just enter the code, script, or embed and 'save'. Then refresh the page and it works. I must have something in my browser settings because maybe this method doesn't work for some users.
But, recently I was updating it and I put the whole page offline. When I went to "enable" page. The page worked but the script does not. I have gone over and over and I can't get it to work.
When I am in edit mode - it says "Script Disabled" which is what used to happen but would work once the page was enabled.
I have notice that I have "Undefined" in my drop down menu on homepage search element. I also see "Script Disabled" by the Search element also when I go to edit mode . Its on every field. How to I remove "Undefined" that from the dropdown field and remove "Script Disabled". Your help and advice is much appreciated. Thank you.
Hi, I am trying to embed a converkit form to my squarespace website. When I add the HTML code I get the message script disabled. When I save to try and preview the form there is just a blank space and no form. Can you help please
I have a similar problem and I have integrated the code (see below) of our external service provider so that the created online offer is displayed on our website. However, when I load the page, only a box appears (see screenshot) and the online offer does not load. When I load the page a 2nd time, it then appears.
I am adding a code block and pasting in the HTML from Beds24 widget creator but it doesn't seem to be working. In the block, it says "this block contains embedded scripts. Embedded scripts are disabled while you're logging in and editing your site."
You are Indeed in the rabbit hole (many entries, no exit > kinda Alice in the Wonderland). Other than that any pro (at least in theory) bakes his beans with one way (BTW: who does things with VB these days?).
Because you might need to reuse components. It also prevents you from dealing with a too large code-base. Instead, you break the logic down to single-responsible parts. Of course, the number of 25 is quite random. E.g. for a pattern this means that you create a component to create a grid of points, another is connecting the grid with lines, another component creates the surfaces based on the curves and so on. If you want to change how the grid is generated, you simply replace that part without touching the rest.
1000 components are as complicated to handle than just 1 script component. At least for a script-component with one code file.(If you create a library, you can split the code by creating more than 1 code files). I found the best maintainability of a definition is if you deal with around 5 to 100 components for a medium-sized project. This same holds true for the amount of parameters. You can clearly over-parameterize a definition.
I also ask this because in GHPython, McNeel added a functionality to write a script by using GH components. In a way that you can write definitions like if you would place components. I have hardly anybody seen using this possibility.
I am having a pretty long multi-stage piece of R code, which takes a lot of resources and time to run.
In the development stage, I broke it down into multiple stages, a separate R script for each stage. Each R script to start with loading an .RData file from the previous stage, and save another .RData file in the end for the next stage.
I do something similar with my computationally intensive scripts. I usually keep them in .Rmd format and will do something like the following, where the chunk does something that could take a long time, and then I save it to an .Rdata file. I leave a commented line for quick loading in my interactive session.
Whether or not I keep these all in one script or in multiple scripts varies from project to project. It has more to do with organizing my thoughts than anything else. If I feel like the tasks are distinct enough that I would understand the flow better by isolating them in different files, I do that. If I feel like isolating them will cause me to be toggling back and forth between multiple files, I keep them together. Admittedly, as a subjective process, I may make different decisions on different days.
EDIT: I should point out that the reason I use the .Rmd is to use the cache chunk option. Caching the chunk allows me to run the script, and then that chunk won't run again unless I change something in the chunk. It's effectively the same thing as isolating .R scripts with the option of keeping them all in one file.
I normally keep different parts of the analysis in different scripts, for example, one for data formatting / preprocessing functions, another for some analytical functions, other for the plots functions. Then I have an Rmd file to work wiith the data ina similar way as mentioned by @nutterb
What I avod is using .RData for saving parts of it. Instead, I use .RDS format. Of course, carefully use or .RData may be suitable, but in the long run it may generate problems.
For example, you may want to load an old file in your current session to do some new stuff and compare with other stuff, and it may actually overwritte it. Working with .RDS files forces you to have to associate the file to a new object, and to give it an explicit name:
Also, assuming you are working mid/long term, your functions will also be improved with time. If you save some sessions (the full workspace) long time ago, and then you load them into a current one, it may overwrite the current functions with the old versions.
Have you thought about drake to organize your big project workflow?
ropensci.github.io A Pipeline Toolkit for Reproducible Computation at ScaleA general-purpose computational engine for data analysis, drake rebuilds intermediate data objects when their dependencies change, and it skips work when the results are already up to date. Not every execution starts from scratch, there is...
I find it pretty useful to organize some not-so-small projects. drake will also help with heavy computation (parallel ready) and saving intermediary results (If I recall right.). With the dependency graph, you won't have to rerun everything that did not changed. Very well documented also! You should give it a try if you think it suits your use-case.
I think drake is my dream, but involved solution. My first crack at trying it though gave me the impression I would have to change the way I write scripts because it relies on calling functions on your data. I'm not an expert on that - it might be able to just source your scripts one at a time. I just feel there's a bit of a paradigm shift involved.
Until you or I get there, I think the minimal solution is to give yourself some insurance against confusing things by documenting what the inputs and outputs are of each script in a README file. For example:
Script code or Airtable no-code automation? There's not a way to import/export automations between bases, likely because automations are very dependent on relevant base data to create/test them and it's not a process you would need to do very often.
