you're always selecting things from post meta filtered by post_id, so long as you're not then trying to run LIKES on the value and you dont have tens of thousands of postmetas per post, it's fine

the WP fancy stuff is so user-centric, it's great for most people, but.. I'vve been using WP forever and its irking me. I feel like this was an attempt to take on Wix, etc. which is a big shift for WP
#
Ruxton
Rhe concept of WordPress being a weblog first and foremost, has pretty much vanished
#
Ruxton
where as once wordpress made things easier, i legit feel like it's become the restriction for me
#
GWG
Ruxton: You know I'm going to resist
#
Ruxton
for sure, but that's problematic cos that means the tools aren't moving with the 'norm'
#
Ruxton
Feels like we're always shoehorning something in to make something work against the way WordPress has chosen to move forward
#
GWG
Ruxton: I know, but is there a middle ground?
#
Ruxton
if i knew I'd be there ;P
#
GWG
Ruxton: As long as there is backcompat
#
Ruxton
it wont be there forever
#
GWG
Ruxton: What do you think about the bookmark thing?
#
Ruxton
I dont see why it wouldn't work
#
GWG
Is it a good idea though?
#
Ruxton
I personally think it's better than 44,000 posts with a post type
#
Ruxton
but it might limit what you can do
#
Ruxton
i dont think link categories can have parents? so it's a pretty limited organization
#
GWG
Ruxton: I can add taxonomies

GWG, Zegnat I'm not sure about 44,000, but it doesn't seem to have issues with 38,668 so far, though to be honest I've only added them slowly over time rather than all at once. 🙂

I need a codename for this bookmark using links table project
#
GWG
To name the files and possibly the plugin
#

linkbook
#
GWG
It sounds like something else. As does booklink
#
GWG
link marks?
#
[tw2113_Slack_]
Links take Manhattan
#
[tw2113_Slack_]

blogroll-deluxe
#
GWG
It isn't a blogroll
#
GWG
I want to use it as a pinboard like replacement
#
GWG
Linkboard
#
GWG
Pinbook?
#
GWG
I could name it boffosocko
#
[tw2113_Slack_]
name it after a different part of that movie scene
#
[tw2113_Slack_]
what was kermit’s character name for it?
#
Loqi
It looks like we don't have a page for "kermit’s character name for it" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "kermit’s character name for it is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
[tw2113_Slack_]
hi loqi
#
GWG
I could call it Kermit
#
[tw2113_Slack_]
Lenny!

[tw2113_Slack_]
secretary in the movie said too much, she gave the suite # away
#
[tw2113_Slack_]
she’s a security hazard

[Joe_Crawford]
If it can upload and download links into pinboard or other services: kitchen-sink-links-sync
#
[tw2113_Slack_]
lenny’s links
#
GWG
I don't want to sync, I want to sub

GWG
Names are hard
