I just had a look at some of my older posts. The links to pictures in my Dropbox are broken. I guess Dropbox changed the link scheme some month ago. :?
Is there a way to fix these links en bloc? Like a table with two rows: old link, new link. I still have the pictures and did not move them in my Dropbox. Still the links are broken.
TIA

From what I know, it is no longer possible. As of September 1, 2017 public links have been disabled for all users.
From Dropbox help page:
-All of the files in your Public folder will remain safe, but public links to those files will stop working
-If someone visits a link to a file in your Public folder, they'll see an error page
-To see a list of your public links, visit the Public folder—any file in this folder will have previously had a public link associated with it
-Dropbox can't convert existing public links into Dropbox shared links
-If you'd like to re-share any of the files in your Public folder, please use a shared folder or shared link
Yes, Dropbox closed automatic public access to files in the Public folder. But of course you can still generate shared (public) links to files in Dropbox.
I'm willing to replace the public links I used in this forum with new working ones if there would be an efficient way.
