Shorten link not working
Hi there! All of a sudden, the shorten link feature in my public folder is not working - not that the link won't work - it won't shorten it anymore.
Any help would be appreciated - thanks!
- 9 years agoThe shorten link functionality in Dropbox has been deprecated and will likely not return. They have been heading in this direction for a while now, having first started removing the feature from other parts of Dropbox a couple years ago. This was one of the last remaining locations where it still functioned.
As Olivia stated, you will want to look at other services that provide that functionality. Bit.ly and Goo.gl are among the most popular.

Dear Rich R.
Thank you for all your help and many thanks to the team at DropBox, my Public Folder link is now functioning normally and perfectly.
By the way, I am sorry for being vulgar with my comment a few days ago, but it was of pure frustration at the need of having a long and best feature of DropBox functioning normally.
And also be aware that I am personally responsible for a huge international record company as a paying customer of DropBox since 2011 and they in turn have turned on a lot of artists and producers as paying customers as it is a very convenient way of working collaboratively over long distances and for sharing works in progress with A&R people and various label sites around the world.
Thanks again.
Kind regards,
Mark L.
