Shared Files
193 TopicsDifficulty accessing shared files due to mandatory admin verification code.
Recently, access to shared files started requiring an extra verification code from the admin every single time. Before, opening the shared link from email was enough and things worked smoothly. Now it adds unnecessary delays, especially when the admin isnât immediately available, and it makes the process frustrating for less technical users. If thereâs a way to disable this requirement or simplify access again, Iâd really appreciate the guidance.44Views0likes3CommentsHow can I share a simple Word file with read only access?
I'm struggling to do something that should be very simple. I have a Word doc that I want to be able to share with people. I don't want them to be able to edit MY copy, but I want them to have their OWN copy that they can edit in Word. How do I accomplish this in Dropbox? I also have a .pdf file that I need to share with people, but that one, they just need to be able to read and save a copy.

Hi all, I have a PDF presentation I constantly update, after I've shared the link with clients. But I want the same link to keep working for them. One workaround I sometimes use is sharing the containing folder (and updating the file inside) but many people find this confusing. Is there a way to keep the same link for an updated file?

Hello Community Ive been with DROP BOX for over 15 years. Ive reached my limit and cannot stomach the owners of DB anymore. Fleecing small business is not admirable. Creating confusing menus to generate more revenue aimed at small business owners who cannot manage these complicated systems. I initially signed up for DB as a storage tool but realized you cannot rely on DB for storage as files are constantly lose however ive been able to use the the platform as collaborations tool. However the platform has become a cess pool of dishonest practices. I pay thousands of dollars per year you would think i could have access to support? You want me to explain to you all these error messages. The platform is purposely deceptive in order to upsell. These practices are making people like Drew Houston more money and are contributing to working class peoples misery. I have a small business im paying enterprise rates yet i dont have access to support (which i bought the add on). I cant add a team member to a folder says im not the owner but i am the owner i cannot contact support despite paying $3k per year. This platform is awful. Someone tell me a good alternative please for the love of GOD117Views0likes4CommentsThe admin needs to send a code every time someone wants to access a shared file.
accessing new shared files was easy by opening the email link. Now the admin person has to send a code as well for access. It is very confusing for not tech savvy people and also means the admin person has to be available all the time to send the code. please stop this nonsense or tell me how I can turn it off.50Views0likes1CommentClassic ASP read folder for https file links.
Hi, I am trying to use classic ASP to read the contents of a folder and create a list of hyperlinks to each file in the folder. I have created a script using an api token and it seems to execute but never produces a list. Has anyone got a bullet proof script which will do this?
