@"JST-" wrote:We used to create and share a link to a Dropbox folder. Recently that was no longer possible and now when we share, it arrives as a "Dropbox Transfer."

@"DHme" wrote:Most importantly, how can I email with someone specifically about my account? Visit the Support page while you're NOT signed in to a Dropbox account, including these forums, and you'll see an option for sign in issues.

@"Trimom62" wrote:I’ve copied the link which is view only but the website I’m adding the link too (pimcore as an admin) won’t accept it as it’s way too at over 100 characters! You'll need to run it through a third-party link shortening service. There's no way to shorten the link with Dropbox.
