I'm entering a songwriting contest online and I need to create a public URL for each song to paste into the entry form. I've copied Dropbox links to the songs and pasted them, but when I hover the cu...

Hey cbcollins, is this what you're seeing before or after submitting the links?
Sometimes a link will behave like a link after it's been submitted or sent, like when you paste a link to an email, for example.
It pastes like text, but then shows up as a link after the email's been sent.
You can test this on your end through an email, if you want and it should work.
Best of luck with the contest!

cbcollins, Is raw link works for your? 🧐 Replace link's ending "?dl=0" to "?raw=1".
Good luck.

😁 No to replace the links! Only the ending of the links! Take a look on any link you get from Create/Copy link. It looks like:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/abcdl2345ef678h/filename.ext?dl=0
Here you can replace "?dl=0" to "?raw=1". 😉
Hope it's a bit more clear now.

Don't mean to be annoying, but . . .
How do I change the end of the link to "raw=1"? When I click on "copy link" it won't let me change the end. When I paste the link and then change the end--it does nothing. Where can I change the end of the link and have it act like a link?
