Hey mmmccccttttt, thanks for reaching out to the Dropbox Community.

 

Can you please clarify if you're referring to the "make available offline" or the "make online-only" option? Or are they both gone?

 

Can you send us a screenshot of the option that you do see?

 

And lastly, please let us know the sync status and version of the Dropbox app on your computer.

 

You can see that by hovering over the Dropbox icon in your menu bar.

 

Thanks in advance!
