@sanchothefat mentioned this several months ago in Trac and I was wondering if anyone started working on the conversion yet? I’d rather not duplicate the effort if it has already been done, or at least started.

Hi @privatestorm,
I’m afraid I haven’t got round to writing the conversion script yet. Just the post type plugin and adding back in the related metaboxes for xfn etc…
I think discussion was heading towards just using wordpress menus and a menu widget to manage lists of links.
The conversion script might take a little while as it maps most columns to postmeta. I’ve subscribed to this thread so I’ll post a github link here when I’ve something ready to try out.

Thanks for the update. Using menus might be the right option for a lot of people, but for the project I’m currently working on I have a much different type of implementation planned.
@privatestorm, are you still working on this? I’m implementing links as a custom post type, and would be happy to share code if you’re still interested.
(and yes, for the same reason as you’re doing it – to be able to associate individual links with other site content using P2P)

@ancawonka No, this is a project that I haven’t gotten back to working on yet. I would definitely appreciate any code you have to share.
@ancawonka I just found this thread – and what you implemented is just what I am planing right now. So I would be happy if you could share some code you created for this.
Thank you so much in advance!
