2026 TopicsThe text disappears from my search bar on the website while I'm typing.
Using the site version - the text I enter will disappear halfway through what I'm typing and I have to clear out the bar and start over. Happens to every user on my team and did not used to be like this. Really annoying and time consuming to do everything twice. Not sure what caused the behavior change but please fix this issue.44Views0likes10CommentsOption for Clients to "star" or "favorite" Images
The option for Clients to "star" or "favorite" Images in a shared folder would be insanely useful. It's surprising this still hasn't been added yet as a feature. Especially given the introduction of Replay for video feedback, and the fact that commenting already exists for photos and stars exist for internal favorites—all we need is the option for external clients to also "star" photos the way they can comment on photos. Currently, we have to use third-party programs to share photo proofs with clients just so they can select the images they want to purchase. Comments alone are too cumbersome when there's hundreds of images to go through. One tiny addition of a star would make Dropbox for photos unbeatable!393Views5likes2CommentsComments on the website are covered by the menu pop-up.
I have received some comments from a consultant on a pdf set of plans from a consultant. When I go to click on the comment to read it, the three dots for options, the tick to mark the thread as resolved and the emoji reaction all obscure the right hand side of the text so the comment can not be read. I would suggest moving these three options up so that each comment can be read in full. Current hack is to click on the comment to get the gist of it and then go back out to find it so you can read it in full.57Views1like5CommentsGetting a white screen when logging in on the website
Hello, I'm getting a white screen when logging in and when trying to open dropbox links in Chrome. I have cleared cache and cookies, and don't have any extensions that be causing this. Your assistance is greatly appreciated.242Views0likes2CommentsAllow us to show/hide sidebar items on the website
I love new features, don't get me wrong, but not at the cost of them cluttering up the UI with features I rarely (or never) use. The sidebar on the web keeps growing with no way to tame it. How about implementing a Gmail-style menu system where you can bury menu items you don't want to see, but can still access if need-be... this way the UI can be more tuned to how an individual uses it?53KViews135likes67CommentsWhen moving a file while in preview mode, it still appears in the file list
This was working on Dropbox before but it is not working anymore. You should bring this feature back. So the problem we have is when we move a file from the preview mode. The file moves and get a new location but it is still shown in the preview mode in the mapp it got moved from. It should closed down and you should see the next file in the mapp. The next file in line. Since we started to use Dropbox. For over a year ago it has always been like this. Say you have ten files in a mapp. You open up the first file in the mapp in preview mode. You can see the file and then you have arrows with one of ten. This shows that it is ten files in this particular mapp. Now when you move file number one to another mapp it will move and close down. You will now see the file number two in the mapp in the preview mode. Automatically. But now it will be shown one of nine instead in the mapp because we moved one file. And then you repeat the moving file by file till you get the last file in the mapp. One of one. But now you still see one of ten though you moved all files from the original mapp and it looks like all ten files still are in the mapp. Though they have all been moved to a new mapp. Now you can move all ten files one by one but you still think they are still in the original mapp though they have been moved.32Views0likes2CommentsHow to expand left sidebar width on the website?
How can I expand the left sidebar width. I have many levels of files and I can not see the names of folders that I want to move files into. As you can see below, all I can see is the first letter of the folder "A" and there are several of them. I want to be able to expand the left sidebar so I can see the names of those folders and not just the first letter. I was able to do it before, but not now for some reason. Thanks!1.7KViews5likes9CommentsShow a warning/alert if the limit on moving files on the website is exceeded
I had some issues trying to move several folders and files from one folder to another on Dropbox web, I was moving around 200+ folders with files and folders inside and it failed when moving them to another folder at the same time. I opened a ticket for it (#24692326) and also would like to Dropbox team to take a look at it, or if possible to show a warning/alert about the max. files/folders that can be moved at the same time on the web app. Thanks in advance8Views0likes1CommentI'm trying to download large folders from the web, but not all of them are downloaded.
I have a large folder full of (other smaller folders filled with) videos files that I am trying to download and store on an external harrd drive to have a backup of these videos. In total, it comes to ~7 Tb. I have tried downloading each of the smaller folders one at a time but this often results in not all of the videos files downloading. Does anyone know of a better way to do this? Thank you in advance!12Views0likes1Comment
