[tw2113_Slack_] GWG remind me, this repo is meant to be a bit more "native"-ish to WP dashboard than just treating bookmarks as a post type and all the baggage that posts can bring
# GWG- [tw2113_Slack_]: The one I asked you to look at? Yes
# [tw2113_Slack_] yep that's the one i meant
# [tw2113_Slack_] i didn't see anything obvious "bad" or anything upon a quick general review, but i haven't installed at all thus far
# [tw2113_Slack_] will try to on my other computer or if i end up with a test install somewhere on this one 😄
# GWG- [tw2113_Slack_]: The way I imagine it is this....what if the Links Manager hadn't been disabled in WordPress 3.5 and had experienced all the things that were added since then
# [tw2113_Slack_] i like what i'm hearing
# GWG- There's only one change to backcompat.
# GWG- I'm using the link_updated field as when the link was updated last.
# GWG- As opposed to its original intent, which was retired, using pingomatic
# [tw2113_Slack_] oh pingomatic
# GWG- So, I repurposed it, but everything else is original.
# GWG- I also created a Bookmark_Query class that uses the code from the other query classes.
# [tw2113_Slack_] only thing I hadn't found thus far, was how to display them somewhere
# [tw2113_Slack_] but i may have just skipped over that accidentally
# GWG- [tw2113_Slack_]: No, I didn't build it. I was focused on improving the admin UI
# GWG- The list table for links didn't have pagination
# GWG- I had to build that all out
# GWG- I will likely allow for public display. I did add a Post button that sends it to the post ui to make a bookmark post
# [tw2113_Slack_] cool
# GWG- Even if you install it now, you have the old bookmark widget, it would work, but I'll be building things in
# GWG- I need an API.
# GWG- Maybe some more importers
# [tw2113_Slack_] so i already have a compatible plugin? Awesome
# GWG- Which compatible plugin?
# [tw2113_Slack_] Blogroll Block
# [tw2113_Slack_] which pushes everything into wp_list_bookmarks()
# GWG- I'm backward compatible with wp_list_bookmarks, but I had to replace all the functions because of their limitations, including the fact wp_insert_bookmark doesn't set all the fields.
# GWG- Do the two work together?
