Dropshare optionally creates an HTML landing page for each of your uploads. If you want to enable this feature, open the Preferences and select the Landing page tab.
Select Create landing pages for uploaded files if you want Dropshare to create a landing page for your uploads.
In case you want to disable the landing page for a single upload, press and hold the option key (⌥) while dragging a file to Dropshare.
Custom landing page designs
You can either use the default landing page design, or create your very own design with HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Select the "Custom" design to enable your own landing page design, and edit the HTML for your design.
Within the HTML, you can use HTML, CSS, JavaScript and other web technologies to create your individual landing page design.
