This page last changed on May 19, 2010 by sjayaraman.
Modifying the template file in confluence-attachments-plugin-x.x.jar (in this case, I try on confluence-attachments-plugin-2.10.jar). Please edit attachmentsmacro.vm file. This file is located in confluence-attachments-plugin-2.10.jar file. Extract this file by using the Editing files within .jar archives guide guide. If you are able to extract it successfully, you can locate to attachmentsmacro.vm file and find the following lines: <td><a name="$generalUtil.urlEncode($page.title)-attachment-$generalUtil.urlEncode($attachment.fileName)">#parse ("/pages/includes/attachment_icon.vm")</a> <a href="$req.contextPath$attachment.downloadPathWithoutVersion">$attachment.fileName</a></td> and change the above code to be: <td><a name="$generalUtil.urlEncode($page.title)-attachment-$generalUtil.urlEncode($attachment.fileName)">#parse ("/pages/includes/attachment_icon.vm")</a> <a target="_blank" href="$req.contextPath$attachment.downloadPathWithoutVersion">$attachment.fileName</a></td> After making changes, please repack the file by following the steps here. For newer Confluence versions, the file to be edited can be found at <confluence-install>/confluence/pages/listattachmentsforspace.vm. Find for the following lines of code:
<a href="$req.contextPath$!attachment.downloadPathWithoutVersion">$generalUtil.shortenString($attachment.fileName, 50)</a>
and change it to <a target="_blank" href="$req.contextPath$!attachment.downloadPathWithoutVersion">$generalUtil.shortenString($attachment.fileName, 50)</a> Additional Information
