eHive

We don't have any experience integrating eHive into Squarespace. The WordPress plugins are specific to WordPress, so I don't think they can be used in any way with Squarespace. I

The viable options are likely to be:

Using the API

A developer could use the eHive API (this would be a big endeavour) to build plugins for Squarespace. I don't know if Squarespace provides the same extensible plugin architecture that WordPress has. The API is documented here:  http://developers.ehive.com/rest-api-overview/ 

Stand-alone WordPress site

You could have a stand-alone WordPress site for just the collection similar to how Vernon Browser is used at many large Vernon CMS sites. For example, Sarjeant Gallery has a their main website running a content management system here:  https://www.sarjeant.org.nz/ 

Then the online collection is running on a separate server running Vernon Browser and is accessed through this website:  https://collection.sarjeant.org.nz/explore 

To do this you would need to set up a hosted WordPress site, set up a domain name for the online collection (usually a subdomain of your main website domain name), and you would need to do some basic branding changes in WordPress so that it fitted with the style of your main website.
