But, from what I read, that's going to change in September for Dropbox Plus users, as well. <br />I understand it's their business choice, but, if I can't use the service for anything more than storage anymore, I will simply change storage options to another service that will allow what I need.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="themes/Canonfire/forums/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Cebrion</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="themes/Canonfire/forums/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Thu Mar 16, 2017 4:00 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Not really. I made sure to share everything - mother file, then listed file, then opened actual file page and shared from there, just to make sure everything coincided (might not have needed to do that, but I did anyways). You will want to make sure that people can only *view* and not *edit* the shared files. Otherwise, no, it wasn't intentional to have the file open as it does, but that is how it works. I'll see if i can change that, but, for me at least, the link pops open the mother folder briefly first and then switches to the direct link page itself. If you want to adjust certain link settings you now have to upgrade to Dropbox Plus to be able to do so. I would seem these changes are intentional to mess with folks who host files on Dropbox as Canonfire! does.

On March 15, Dropbox woll be changing all Public folders to standard folders. What this means is that all file links will likely be changed, and thus broken. Files will not be lost, but every single file link will likely need to be updated. This will result in nearly every single file in the Downloads and Articles sections becoming inactive for a period of time. I had to do this once before when the files were initially migrated to Dropbox, and it is a simple, but very long and tedious chore. There will be many links to reactivate (282 actually, so not too bad! <img src="modules/Forums/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" border="0" />), and I will begin the updates after March 15th, as I find the time to do so. I'll start with Downloads and then proceed to Articles. The files are very organized, so hopefully it will go much more quickly than before. <br /> <br />This change will not affect any files sent along with Articles submissions (or that are already in the queue and have not yet been posted) during this time. However, any queued or submitted Articles or Downloads will not be posted until after March 15th (i.e. until after the Dropbox change has been fully/successfully rolled out and I can see what the effect is), and the files for such submissions will receive top priority. <br /> <br />Thanks for your patience.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="themes/Canonfire/forums/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
