Files arrangement by order
After uploading files in folder, can I rearranging the files in the order I prefer them to be in?

I’m new to Dropbox.
I spent hours creating a folder with about 90 files in a certain order. When I share it with anyone, the order of the files changes. If I follow the link that I sent, they are in the correct order. How can I fix this?
I was also unable to reorder the files because I couldn’t find the reorder button in any drop downs.
I’m using an iPad Pro.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hello, BillyWeave! Thank you for posting today!
Do they see the same result when trying to view the content in an incognito mode on their browser?
Also, how do you share the folder with them?
Here's how you can sort the files in your account.
Let me know what you find.
