Question

Is there a way of including a link in one topic which directly links to an attachment of an other topic? I could of course use the full URL to the attachment (e.g. http://wiki/twiki/pub/Test/TestTopic/test.pdf) but that's not very nice (or wiki-like).

Thanks for your help!

Answer

If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

The "left part" of the link is available as a TWiki variable %PUBURL%, which in this topic expands to http://www.twiki.org/p/pub. So, you can link to your example attachment like this:

%PUBURL%/Test/TestTopic/test.pdf

Thanks a lot! I must have missed that.
