Hi Everybody,

Ben,
the point is, we did not:
1) change anything
2) adjust settings not change admin roles

If you did not make any of these changes, the most likely culprit for the broken link is the link creator leaving the shared folder. You can get these links working again by adding the creator of the links back to the shared folder.
