Using Dropbox for wedding
I am currently organizing my wedding. One of the ideas that I have is providing guests with a QR code that direct them to my dropbox. The intent is for them to take pictures on the big day and upload them to the file so that after the wedding I can transfer the pics to shutterfly to make a book. When I asked a friend to try the process she was able to get to the file and was able to look at the pics that I have in there. She however was not able to load any of her own into the account and got the notification " this folder is view only". Is there any way that I can change the settings so that everbody that access the QR code can upload pics?

folder viewing permissions- upload but not view?
Is there a way to allow anyone with a folder link to upload to the folder without giving them viewing permissions? Looking for some creative solutions for collecting proof of vaccination/negative COVID test. Need an easy way for ppl to upload, but can't have everyone given access to each other's docs.

Unable to view file through confirmation email from Dropbox - is this normal?
Hi, I'm new to dropbox, sent my first video through a link someone sent me. I rec'd a confirmation email from dropbox stating "Here's what you uploaded to..." and then the file name below it. But I cannot click the file to view it. Is that normal? Should I be able to view it? Or does anyone think that my file actually didn't go though? (for instance, I feel like I should be able to click & view the file, but I can't, so I think something is wrong). Thank you in advance for any info!
