Besides the new link type name, org-add-link-type can receives two
functions, one used to follow the link and another to export the link.

You could use a `org-export-preprocess-hook' to convert those "attach"

Hello Bastien,
I'm glad to help (even if such a small contribution).
The downside of this hack is that it does not work when you export the
buffer. If you use the file: link type then the link will works when you
export the org buffer, but you have to type the whole path of the attached
file. The

In case the "not worrying about where.." in (1) is part the purpose of the
attachment functionality the idea of an absolute path seems sound. I agree
with it being a nice feature, and probably the best to have as default.
However I think it also is nice to also be able to use custom names to

Regarding (2), is this a design decision? Currently I have the ATTACH_DIR
property of some headings set to a relative path from the org file and it
works perfectly. That is, it is possible to use either absolute or relative
path for the ATTACH_DIR property right now.
But if this is a design decis

Hi Darlan,
here is how I see the situation regarding attachments:
1. org-attach.el is nice because it makes it easy to attach a file to a
task, while not *worrying* about where the file is on the harddrive.
2. Adding an ATTACH_DIR property will always add an absolute path, so
there is no p
As I see changing the attach directory to point to the original one is the
easiest solution that has no chances of breaking anything and would keep
attachments working in the refiled/archived sub-trees.
Maybe a org-attach-move-files function could also be implemented to easily
move an attachment

Okay.
But as Darlan pointed out, moving the attached files when refiling the
entry might be dangerous, because files in this attached directory can
also be atta
To make org-mode look for attachments in the current sub-tree when using
org-insert-link would simplify the process of "linking" to attached files
(useful at least when exporting). Persistent links, in in this regard, seems
like a nice idea!

I'm leaning towards not moving my archive to a different folder. I like
having the attachments relative.
Are archive- and refile-hooks implemented b.t.w.? This would make it
possible to hack a personal setting, or am I wrong?

Hi Gustav and Darlan,
one solution I can think of is to set `org-attach-directory'
to an absolute path instead of "data/" (the current default
value).
This way, refiling an entry will not lose attachments.
I'm considering using "~/.org-data/" as the default value.
What do you think?

Ok. I would really like attachments to be integrated with refiling though
even if it was a non-default option. Another feature that could improve the
use of attachments is to allow links to the attached folders also via the
C-c C-l interface in a similar way as stored links (C-c l ). I.E to get the

Is it possible to make attachment-folders move with the headings when
