Force render issues (raw=1) and shared links won't work for hosting.
images were perfect on all browsers until yesterday afternoon - what is the fix or is this a dropbox issue?
We are rolling out a fix for issues with raw=1 and dl=1 links that started recently. Please try again and let us know if it's still not working.
Been using the raw=1 code at the end of Dropbox links to load images to a Wordpress site that has very limited local storage. All of the images uploaded with this link are no longer loading, but images from the web are still working fine.
All my photo links on the geocaching.com site have stopped working when using the /scl/ link.
the old /s/ links still work.
Tried dl=1 and raw=1
Tried on Chrome & Firefox.

Hi Stratoman, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Could you try these steps to see if they help with your shared links?
Keep me posted!
Thanks Jay, I've had the same issue, the thing that worked for me is this:
https://dl.dropbox.com/scl/fi/<token>/path.jpg?rlkey=<token>&dl=0- Replacing www with dl works exactly like a ?raw=1 link: this will directly render content for public links in the browser. It requires following an HTTP 302 redirect.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/scl/fi/<token>/path.jpg?rlkey=<token>&dl=0- Works like a ?raw=1 link, but the application or browser will not need to follow an HTTP 302 redirect to access the content.
the other options are not functionning anymore, please what's the reason behind this strange behavior ?
Hi Jay,
I had already found that document and tried dl=1 and raw=1 with no luck.
I didn't try replacing www with dl as it says :-<<<<<<
While we don't "officially" list these anymore in our Help Center, we are continuing to support them for now.
>>>>>>
However , I have just tried it and it works fine BUT this means going all the way back to June 2023 and changing all my links , not knowing how long it will be supported.
I really need the www /scl/ to work as it did a few days ago.Thanks
John- Yeah I just used a different service for my images - I cannot have something this unreliable.
