You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.

Smart Sync - missing context menu *i sorted it out*
In the Dropbox app (Finder), right-clicking on folder to take 'online-only' should display the 'Smart Sync' option ... it does not.
What I have: MacOS 10.14.6 / Dropbox Plus
What I have tried...
I sorted it out myself ... thanks

Dropbox StaffHi Alan_E, let's jump right into this!
The first thing we need to check, is your app's syncing status. Can you check and let me know more?
A screenshot of what you see when you right click on a file or folder would also be of great help, so I can have visual too.
Keep me posted, and we'll take it from there!
I sorted it out myself ... thanks
what did you do? I'm having the same issue. thnx.
What did I do? I have tried to retrace my mouse-steps to no avail ... I simply cannot find the setting box which offered the link "enable Smart Sync" ... I wonder if this means I cannot 'disable' Smart Sync????
I've been in the desktop app; the website; Help ... sorry.
This is the sort of developer rubbish that needs to be immortalized in the Worst Practice Hall of Fame.

Hey Alan_E, sorry to jump in, but are you referring to the desktop app's preferences?
If so, you can access them through the app's icon in your menu bar.
