Downloading specific files using a shared link
I shared a link to one of my folders with my family. They use a browser to open the link and view the folder of pictures. They do not have dropbox.
Now, they want to select and download multiple files, but that doesn't seem possible?
Clicking on a file name or even the white space next to it actully open the picture to view. Same happens in file list view and gallery view.
Any way to select multiple files in shared links just like it works in dropbox.com when you are logged in?
Thanks.

You can start a new post (or find an existing one to reply to) in the feature request area, which is monitored by the developers. They don't watch the regular forums for requests.

Hi zaptor99,
When sending somebody a shared link, he has two options when it comes to downloading:
*Either download the entire folder or
*Selecting one-by-one the files/photos he/she wishes to download and then do it.
However the cannot sect multiple photos and download them. This is a feature we do not support.
