Retrieves path of attachment template in current or parent template.

Description

The hierarchy for this template looks like:

1. {mime_type}-{sub_type}.php
2. {sub_type}.php
3. {mime_type}.php
4. attachment.php

An example of this is:

1. image-jpeg.php
2. jpeg.php
3. image.php
4. attachment.php

The template hierarchy and template path are filterable via the ‘$type_template_hierarchy’ and ‘$type_template’ dynamic hooks, where $type is ‘attachment’.
