# Attachments

Each source can also have other files attached. Anything that is not the main content file in a folder is considered to be an attachment. There are a few settings to control these in the `[attachments]` section:

- `enabled`: if set to `no` then attachments are disabled. If they do exist in the folder they are silently ignored.
- `model`: an optional default model that is used for all attachments.
- `order_by`: controls the ordering of attachments, similar to how this works for child pages.
- `hidden`: if this is set, attachments will not be built. (Note that any setting here may be overridden on a per attachment basis by setting that attachment's `_hidden` field.)

The `hidden` flag was added in Lektor 2.0 and the default was changed so that attachments are not hidden by default, even if the parent is.
