I don't think there is one?

You can install dropbox integration with:

sudo apt-get install pantheon-files-plugin-dropbox

I tried the link but it is necessary to activate the extension in files. But I don't know how to do this without preferences.

Dropbox plugin doesn't work properly. Pantheon-files crashes when trying to open the Dropbox folder.

Hi Alex,

Files doesn't have a Preferences dialog anymore.

Plugins are activated by just installing them.
