Can I password protect folders while on a Family plan?
I have created a link for viewing and other than "who has access" all other toggles are greyed out. I have the Family plan https://www.dropbox.com/family and unfortunately, I cannot find anything that specifically tells me whether this option is allowed or not. I thought there was an option for securing files. When I go here: https://help.dropbox.com/share/set-link-permissions I can see plans like "Standard" have this option, but then when I go to compare plans https://www.dropbox.com/plans neither the "standard" nor "family plan" is listed for me to even see what options are included in these plans.
Can someone please tell me how I find out exactly what is included in what plan?

The option to require a password for a shared link is not available on the Family plan. The Family plan is basically the Plus plan with additional members. Shared link permissions are available on the Dropbox Professional, Essentials, Standard, Advanced, Business, Business Plus, and Enterprise plans.

Thank you.
It's crazy this is a not a feature of all the paid plans.
