Hey, read the other day with this article oxwall-supports-cloud-storage
It seems simple, but trying to do this with dropbox.com neither of which did not work, please help, very much like to store the data cloud.

Not sure if i am missing something here but i use drop box to sync my devices, laptop, pc, work laptop, work pc and blackberry so i can move files to and from machines or just keep them and edit them from the drop box. Im not sure that drop offers cloud hosting? Just file storage.

I wouldn't recommend any free hosts tbh, you need a host that can provide a perfect environment for your Oxwall install, free hosts will not cut it. If you plan to create a popular site then you will need at the very least a good shared/cloud host if not a VPS like i have.

yep, the very least should be a VPS, the bonus of having a VPS being that you have full control of a server so can tweak and optimise to your (and oxwalls) needs.
