Usage

Hint: You can choose the Macro-Name, whi should be used for the attachment-shortcut, so e.g. like in AttachLinkPlugin, you can use ATTACHMENT instead A

Use the macro %A% or the one you configured in the Configuration-System under AttachmentUrlShortcutPlugin to create a link to an attachement:

Parameter (both working, but only use one)	Default	Description
web or Bereich	Current web	Sets the web of the topic, where the attachment is attached to
topic or Dokument	Current topic	Sets the topic name, where the attachment is attached to
name or Anhang or default (`%A{"file"}%`)	required	Sets the name of the attachment. It must match the filename!
Label or Name_	name	Optional to set the name of the link. If its not set, _file is used as name

If you use file to define the file to attache to, the link is create automatically, so you dont need to use braces[[]] like in example 1.

Examples

Different ways to link the attachment TestAttachement.pdf of this topic

```
%A{"TestAttachment.pdf"}%
```
%A{"TestAttachment.pdf"}%

%A{name="TestAttachment.pdf" label="Test attachment"}%

%A{name="TestAttachment.pdf" label="Test attachment"}%

[[%A{web="System" topic="AttachmentUrlShortcutPlugin"}%TestAttachment.pdf][Test attachment]]

%A{web="System" topic="AttachmentUrlShortcutPlugin" name="TestAttachment.pdf" label="Test attachment"}%

%A{web="System" topic="AttachmentUrlShortcutPlugin" file="TestAttachment.pdf" name="Test attachment"}%
