Cascading Style Sheets (.CSS) files
I hope I'm placing this in the correct space.
Links that we generate for this update after 2023 - I can't seem to get the CSS link working from my dropbox.
link example is, and has to be in this format for the site I'm using it for - it goes to a profile and generates the css:
@import url("https://dl.dropbox.com/scl/fi/<some generated text>/<filename>.css?dl=0&raw=1");
I have tried to go through this community to search for updates but everything comes up from 2018-2021 etc.
Can someone help?
I'm also having trouble with the new set up for small videos/music links that are .mp3. I just need help with the css one right now 😞

Hi altie86,
It's a good decision to add "raw=1" param, but you don't need to keep "dl=0" param. Anyway... this is not the source of your issue.
You have done something else - dropped one param existing in the original form - rlkey. This param absence makes your link incorrect! That's where your issue comes from. 😉
Hope this helps.
- I'm trying to have my. Css file from drop box load to my profile on another site. The example is, it isn't loading.
Is there a proper way to the write the link? The link provided by drop box never works on the website.

- I added all that stuff because I saw it in the solutions on here. Can you help? 🥺 I just want the link to be correct. So I make the Sci/ to s/, etc?
altie86, The solution is simple: Just don't change anything in the initially provided link other that replacing "dl=0" to "raw=1". NOTHING ELSE!!! That's it. 😉 Nothing more.
Your equilibristics of params make the link invalid. 🤷
- THIS WAS CORRECT! THANK YOU! I PULLED A NEW LINK.
