Download links take me to my homepage
I tested the download links I supply on Etsy for files on Dropbox and it takes me to my Dropbox Home page. Is it supposed to work like that? Iow, using the Dropbox link a buyer will get access to all...
Hi Rich
Okay, got it, thanks. I had the Ahaa! moment. I know what to do now. Thanks for your assistance, much appreciated!
Walter, you can stand down from this too, thanks.
Okay, thanks Walter. I'll test one of the links on somebody else's laptop and see what happens. I'll get back to you.

You can just open an Incognito window (Chrome) or private browsing window (Edge, Firefox, others) and test the link yourself. That ensures you're not signed in.
Also, remember that you can't just copy the link to a file from the address bar in your browser. That would be unique to your account only. You need to generate a shared link to the file you're offering for download.
