Good afternoon, It would appear that Wix has chosen to drop the Dropbox App that allows visibility/access to specific Dropbox folders directly from a Wix site. Are there any alternatives that anyone is aware of that could support a real-time peering between a Wix website and a specific Dropbox folder to upload and download files? Thank you,47Views2likes1CommentDisable "Suggested from your activity" permanently
Hi there, I absolutely hate the feature "Suggested from your activity". I would like to see a checkbox in settings that allows a user to disable that permanently and have the cleanest possible view of file(lists) and folders. The "Suggested from your activity" feature always shows my family photos or, like today, a preview of my tax form. Whenever I open dropbox in the office to browse my files, all my work colleges can see these previews too. The icon that hides it, is only remembering the setting as long as one does not delete cookies from the browser. At our company, it is policy to delete cookies every day at the end of the day. So this "hiding" setting is pretty useless for me. More over, please make it possible to have a clean, minimalistic UI without all the fluff, super big blue buttons and "easy access" helpers. Some people don't need it. It is distracting and disturbing.25KViews80likes46CommentsViewable tags next to folders/files when you try to preview them.
Hello Dropbox team 👋 I would really really love to be able to see tags appear besides the name of the files in any view, or folder, and on the mobile app, web version, and desktop app. Just a nice coloured tag left to the star icon would be wonderful. Yes, I know at Dropbox you are not a big fan of small, seemingly unnecessary cutomizations that don't serve an immediate and measurable purpose, but making customers happy is very important (here by improving UI and UX significantly and seemlessly for a small amount of time and effort). I'm sure the intern could figure it out in three days. Also if you are hyper motivated you can add a filter for tags to sort files (but NOT necessary, making them visible and coloured is already a great improvement). Here is what I imagine when I say tags: For colours you can do just like in Notion, where you can choose from pre-determined colours:33Views1like2CommentsAlmost impossible to login due to "games" captcha
Hi everyone! I have a problem I hope you can help me resolve. I use my Dropbox free acount to move files from my phone to the office computer. They are personal things, so I can't install the app or login out of a private browser session. I have two-factors autentication active. Dropbox makes me lose a lot of time in stupid games before login to prove I'm human. I'm not talking about reCAPTCHA here, but real games where you move people to the right chair and other crap like that. How can I avoid this? It's ridicolous, if I wanted to play I will have open an account to a game site, not to personal cloudspace.274Views2likes25CommentsIssue with resizing text/signature boxes on the Signatures page
Is anyone else having issues resizing boxes on a document that you are trying to send for signature? I can move the boxes around the document but can no longer resize them to fit in a particular area. I tried two different browsers, etc... Its like the ability to resize just disappeared.Solved217Views1like33CommentsPasting a screenshot using the website
For windows users, or anyone else that uses the clipboard in the OS to maintain text, images, or other items for easy copy+ pasting between applications - I would like to see the DropBox web interface accept a "paste" ( Ctrl + V ). This allows for fast screenshotting in Windows 11 ( Win + Shift +S ) that puts the cropped image in the clipboard for pasting. This expands the use of Dropbox to sync screenshots across Operating systems, and becomes very useful for workflows like QA of web applications, documentation selection, etc, etc. A number of these examples exist already in web-based "screenshot" websites which host the images for a short period of time before disappearing. Combine the Dropbox experience with the ease of pasting experience to get a sharable, trackable, linkable screenshot.1.7KViews0likes3CommentsIs there a way for users to upload photos to my account directly from their devices?
Hi everyone! I need to integrate a web widget into a website so that users can upload their photos. Dropbox have such a widget or do I need to look for a third-party solution to integrate with your storage?Solved46Views0likes7CommentsThe ticketing system needs some improvements
First, the emails it sends should have the ticket# in the email Subject. Second, the email should have a SYNOPSIS of the issue. Maybe the first line from the Issue Details??? Or, better, from a separate issue Synopsis or TITLE. AND add this to the email SUBJECT as well. I mean, seriously, when you have multiple issues open, it is VERY difficult to keep track of them. You have to actually click the link inside the email to see the issue on the web page to know.88Views2likes1CommentI can no longer log in because of the new "games" captcha
I have been using the Dropbox free account for several years now. However, I am currently no longer able to log in to the site because the login puzzle is not working. This cost me a total of 30 minutes of my time. With the best will in the world, I can't afford this waste of time. I will therefore refrain from using Dropbox in the future if no solution is found.93Views0likes9CommentsNewest/Oldest/Most Liked sort on Dropbox Forums Doesn't Work
I have been talking to tech support about an apparent bug, which has caused quite a few back and forth. As a result, because the default sort for thread is show Oldest posts to Newest, I've had to click the Show More button a lot. With increased posts, I also had to click View Full Discussion. So I tried to change the sort to Newest. Doesn't work. Oldest, Newest, Most Liked... nothing happens. Seems like an easy bug to reproduce. I am using Safari 18.3.1 on MacOS 15.3.2. BTW, I tried to insert a link to your web site that resembles this one (I put a space in it now so it shows), but even though I used your chain-icon button to add it, it says it is invalid. It was not. This appears to be another bug. This link will take you to one of your forum posts that demonstrated the issue: Copy and remove the space. https ://www.dropboxforum.com/discussions/101001016/sync-results-under-your-activity-shows-yesterdays-synced-files-not-todays-/82981443Views0likes3Comments
