From a folder to your website in four steps
Nothing to upload twice and no plugin to keep updated. FolderBloom reads the folder you choose and keeps your website in step with it. Your original files stay in Dropbox or OneDrive.
The four setup steps
- 1
Connect Dropbox or OneDrive
Sign in to your storage and allow FolderBloom to read it. It can never change or delete your files.
- 2
Choose a folder
Pick the one folder to show. Only that folder and the folders inside it appear — nothing else in your account.
- 3
Choose a look
A list of files, cards, a photo gallery, a slideshow and more. You see a working preview as you go.
- 4
Add it to your website
Copy one line of website code (or use the WordPress plugin) and paste it into a page.
To go live: choose a plan and confirm the website is yours. Everything before this is free.
Your folder, on your website
1Your files are in Dropbox or OneDrive
Keep working the way you do now. Your original files never leave your storage.
2FolderBloom shows the folder on your website
Visitors see a tidy list or gallery they can open, preview and download.
3Update a file and the website follows
Save a new version over the old one. The website shows it after the next sync — usually within a few minutes.
For example: your prices change, so you save the new price list over the old PDF in Dropbox. Your website now offers the new list, and the download link you put in emails, QR codes and old posts still works — it simply opens the new version.
Preview first, then publish
Preview — free
Connect your storage, then use Show a folder on my website: choose a folder and a look, see a working preview, and copy one line of code. Sensible settings are picked for you; customize anything later. No payment needed.
Publish on your website
Choose a plan for the website, then confirm it’s yours: paste a short code into any page of your website and click Check my website — or, if you prefer, upload a small verification file or add a DNS record. Once that’s done, the folder appears wherever you pasted the website code.
What happens when a file changes
1. Your storage lets us know
Dropbox and OneDrive tell FolderBloom when something in the folder changes. We also check every folder on a regular schedule, so a missed notice can't leave your website out of date for long.
2. We read only what changed
FolderBloom looks at the files that changed, not the whole folder, and never changes anything in your storage.
3. Links stay with their files
Each link belongs to a file, not to its name. Saving over a file or renaming it keeps the link; deleting the file retires it; unclear cases wait for you to decide.
4. Visitors see the update
Your website lists the current files, and downloads come straight from your storage — never from an old copy.
