    Yes of course, that's what shared file/folder is for. 😉 Just one clarification, you can't share the entire Dropbox folder (only subfolders - which is usually enough - just to avoid confusion)! Using link you can't keep the content in automatic sync, so links are unusable in your case. They are convenient way to share your work to somebody needing read only access (without engaging Dropbox storage and even without needed Dropbox account).

    Hope this helps.

Hi sadielaay,

Hm..🤔 Who actually accused you and for what? Can you clarify what's your question at the end?

God probably won't help you but you can help yourself, I believe! 😉
