That is incorrect? I just tried and it works just fine on my Linux host.
As long as the symlink is inside the ~/Dropbox folder, pointing to a file/folder also inside the ~/Dropbox folder, it works. I can open the file/Folder when tapping on the symlink on mobile Dropbox.
- frereubu 7y agoThat's what the linked article says. It makes a distinction between a symlink in your Dropbox folder that points to another item in your Dropbox folder (syncs both symlink and target) and a symlink that points to another item outside your Dropbox folder (only syncs the symlink).
- Dylan16807 7y agoThat's not really a distinction. It always syncs just a symlink now. If the target is inside Dropbox then it gets synced by virtue of being in Dropbox, not because a symlink points to it.
