2 years agoHey ambern1023! Welcome back to our Community.
Are you following these steps to create your shortcuts on Dropbox? If yes, and later on the name of the file/folder they point to changes, then the shortcut may break and you’ll get an error.
Can you clarify what you’re referring to exactly when asking about the Dropbox weblinks? Are you talking about shared links perhaps?
As for your spreadsheets, if you create a shared link and then rename the original file, the link should still be normally working. Same thing should happen if the file’s edited and moved at some point.
Regarding adding tags to your files/folders, it’s not possible to do this in bulk at the moment, I’m afraid. Each tag will need to be manually added to each file/folder instead.
Hope this helps a little bit.
