Sync Updates

To update your galleries after making changes:

Important:

  • Changes in Dropbox folders reflect on your site after syncing
  • Deleting folders/content removes them from your site

  • Refresh gallery page to confirm successful sync

Organize your images efficiently by creating clear folder structures and maintaining consistent file formats for seamless integration between Dropbox and Squarespace.
