Hi there! Right off the bat I want to say that I haven't seen an answer for this, and if it's on another forum that I happened to miss, I'm super sorry!!

So I'm extremely new to this site, but I've always been familiar with codes and I know that you can code dens here. How does someone go about actually posting these codes, however? Every tutorial that I've seen says to use Dropbox's Public Folder - however, that folder no longer exists for free.

What site should I use to host my codes?

Hi! I don’t know if there’s a more up to date tutorial anywhere so I don’t have an easy link to a guide to give you unfortunately, but you don’t need to worry about the whole public folder thing now.

You can simply upload the file to Dropbox and choose the 'share' option to get the link you need - this is available to everyone, you don’t need to be a paid user or anything.

After that you just need to edit the link from the format Dropbox gives you which will be something like this...

https://www.dropbox.com/s/randomsymbols/filename.css?dl=0


Into this format, which you put into your den description:

<*link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://dl.dropbox.com/s/randomsymbols/filename.css">

eta: removing the asterisk from the code above, obviously :)

Thank you so much for the speedy reply! Now I can get straight to coding, woo!

No problem at all, glad it helps - it’s kinda confusing until you know, especially since a lot of the guides here were made before the public folder got changed.

If you get stuck on anything feel free to let me know and I’m more than happy to help if it’s within my self-taught amateur skills :)
