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.

Can we have an option to lock files we're working on to avoid conflicted copies?
My business partner and I (often working from different locations) are constantly working on the same documents and trying to save our work at the same time. Result: lots of conflicted copies of file...

Hi All!
I just merged several threads under this discussion as they seemed to be related so this is a heads up not to get confused while reading through the posts up to the last page.
I'm happy to let you know that we're currently in the process of rolling out our 'File Locking' feature.
File locking is a feature available to Dropbox Business users that prevents a file from being edited which allows teams and collaborators to coordinate who is editing a file and avoid conflicted copies.
Keep your awesome ideas coming people!
