There seems to be a demand for a wordpress plugin which can handle dropbox and there is code available to make it, but for some reason people haven’t made one yet.
Taking the available code and next to no wordpress plugin knowledge I’ve modified the code and made a plugin out of it.
It’s now been what I would consider sufficiently tested, and appears to work for most configurations.
Long story short, a special thanks to jaka.kubje.org and to individual-it.net from where the bulk of the code originates. I just made it a plugin.
There is a readme file in the archive which should explain the workings. It’s basic and simple, but if any questions come up, post a comment and I’ll gladly answer.
