Help With Eliminating Dropbox Pop Ups

We’ve recently subscribed to a Dropbox Business Standard plan to use as external cloud storage for our upcoming WordPress website. The idea is to host larger assets—such as event photo galleries, videos, and members-only documents—on Dropbox and then link to them directly from the site, rather than storing everything on the web server.

At the moment, we can share these files using publicly accessible Dropbox links. However, there is a usability issue: when users open a shared link on desktop, they can view the content without any trouble, but when they try to download a file, a prominent prompt appears encouraging them to sign up for or log in to a Dropbox account. Although there is an option to download without logging in, it’s less obvious and shown in smaller text. On mobile devices, the experience is even more intrusive, as a similar prompt appears before the page fully loads (though it can be dismissed). This can give visitors the impression that a Dropbox account is required to access or download the files, even though it isn’t. From what we understand, Dropbox does not currently offer a way to disable these prompts.

If we connect our Dropbox account to WordPress using this plugin instead of relying on public share links, is it likely that these login or sign-up pop-ups would be avoided?
