I had a small difficulty with the installation (my bad), and the support was outstanding.
For anyone who needs a file directory on their website - I don't believe there's any superior alternative to this. Good job!

Its easy to use for everone. Put your stuff in a Dropbox snyced Folder on your Harddrive and you will find the Data on your Website.
It´s ahead of the game regarding cloud storage and integration in to a CMS-systems whit out having to pay a fortune for it.
Artur Neumann the man behind the component is the first one to back you up if you are having problems getting it to operate the way you want. He assisted me the same day as i installed it even though i was pretty sure it would not work on a server whit safe mode on and a server that already had stopped me from using DOCman. I first tested it on a shared server from the hosting provider Surftow.se were it did not work and then on a server from one.com were it worked perfect.
Neumann gave me a quick and precise answer to what was wrong whit the settings and limitations in the PHP-installation on the server.
The integration whit Dropbox is slick and you can upload and download big files without messing up your memory quote if you are on a hosted webserver. This is god news for you folks who want to use your webpage for uploading and downloading big files and pictures to costumers and friends.
Cloud storage and integration in to already existing structures is one of the big things right now for many companies and this component can help you miles ahead.
I have been on the hunt for this kind of solutions for a while now looking every ware on for it. There has always been an issue whit the solutions. If it´s not the storage provider it is the lack of a working API´s ore uploading limitations on the server. This component solves all of this in a moment.
Tried and tried and tried... no go... I'm sure its my error, but will look for another option.
It is also possible you found a bug. Please report some more infos and drop me an Email with the link to the page: http://www.individual-it.net/en/kontakt-impressum.html
If you like I can also send you the payment back.
If you have problems with this tool, don't hestitate to contact the programmer. He helped me to get it work.
I'm developing a site with product information, and every product has of course it's related documents (product sheet, whitepapers, success stories etc). So now our sales team and product managers only have to drop new or updated product document in the correct dropbox catalog on their PC (Dropbox map)and it will appear like magic on the web product page :-) Very handy!
Thanks for developing it! And thanks for quick support Artur. Well worth >>>> than the 1 Euro I paid...
Now I'm just trying to change the default text appearing: "You are here: DROPBOX" without messing with the code...
Just see the file
administrator/language/[lang]/[lang].plg_content_dropboxplugin.ini
One line should be: DROPBOX ROOT - this is what you need
First I had some trouble with version 0.8. The developer respond very quick within 24h hours and was searching the bug and fixed it. The Plugin itself is easy to install and to configure.
Make sure you have PHP version 5 installed. Won't work below it.
