Permalinks for unattached uploads/attachments

Reported by: dlhau@… Owned by: anonymous
Priority: normal Milestone: Future Release
Component: Permalinks Version: 1.6
Severity: normal Keywords: needs-patch
Cc: johnbillion@…, marko@…

Description

Currently attachement links are in the form: 

http://www.example.com/?attachment_id=1

Would look much neater if these matched the permalinks of regular posts (depending on what it is configured to) eg: 

http://www.example.com/attachement/1/

Attachment permalinks are in the form [parent permalink]/[attachment slug]. There is not an intermediate attachment permalink style. What is an attachment without something to attach to?

It has not been decided what to do with orphaned attachments, although I think we should drop and unlink.

Re-opening this guy.

If media is uploaded using Media -> Add New, it doesn't get a permalink because it doesn't have a post.

I'd like to suggest the idea proposed in the original post be reconsidered. Query strings are ugly. :)
