How to Use the Universal Copy Button Generator

Need to let your readers copy a chunk of text or code with one click? Whether it's a recipe, an affiliate blurb, or a Markdown block — this tool creates a simple, styled "Copy" button that works right inside Squarespace.

What It Does

This generator creates:

• A visually centered button with your custom label (e.g. "📋 Copy Code")

• A hidden <textarea> holding the content

• One-click functionality that copies your content to the user's clipboard

No JavaScript files or plugins required. Just paste the generated code into a Code Block in Squarespace.

Example Use Case

Let’s say you run a cooking blog. You want to let readers copy a short ingredients list:

Input:

• Button Label: Copy Ingredients

• Text to Copy:

  2 cups flour

  1 tbsp sugar

  1/2 tsp salt

Output (when pasted into a Squarespace Code Block):
A centered button labeled "Copy Ingredients" that, when clicked, instantly copies your list. Great for user convenience and engagement.

Tips

• You can use this for affiliate text, email templates, shortcode snippets, Markdown, or custom disclaimers.

• Use emojis or branding in the button text (like “📄 Copy Snippet” or “🔗 Copy Link”).

• Want to create multiple buttons on one page? Just be sure each hidden <textarea> uses a unique id.
