We can't check the website version, as my boss doesn't have her pw here... but I resolved the issue. I'd like your comment though:

Thanks!

Glad to hear that you were able to resolve your concern, TMech!
Out of curiosity, could you clarify what you mean when you mention that you had to move the file into a sub-file? Was the file outside of the Dropbox folder by any chance?

Ultimately it was the combination of being OUT of the dropbox folder but not alongside one of our main cloud files that worked.Thanks for trying, ~T
