 * Hi oliviern — late to the party, but if you are still monitoring this thread,
   I am curious to know what issue you had with [Exifize My Dates](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/exifize-my-dates/)
   plugin?
 * You mentioned it could not pull the exif data from your photos. Can you confirm
   that the photos have properly formed exif data? And, if so, what error is being
   thrown?
 * Feel free to start a new post on the [support forum](http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/exifize-my-dates)
   as well. Thanks.

 * Well that answers /that/ question. 😉 I would argue that the idea has its merits,
   especially as online identity becomes more nuanced. If it could be determined
   that person A has never once used the account for anything (except to register)
   it seems it could be safely scrubbed… Thanks anyway.

 * Short answer, yes.
 * Theoretically, anything you can think of can be done with WordPress…
 * The issue you might run in to is WordPress doesn’t really natively do “user generated”
   content very well… You can set up multiple authors with restricted access, but
   as far as letting anyone add content, it’s a little bit tricky. There are plugins
   that add that functionality, with various levels of success. EG If you want Coach
   A to be able to submit last nights stats, you can create forms (using a plugin
   like Gravity Forms) that can harvest that info, and either a) hold it for moderation,
   or b) automatically post it somewhere.
 * Without knowing exactly what you want to achieve, I can’t make recommendations,
   but I can say I have developed complex course registration and user management
   solutions with WordPress as well as a number of dynamically generated user content
   based sites… Complexity will vart.

 * Hi all – Interesting stuff. But with all due respect, it would be great to keep
   this thread on topic. Thanks!
 * Katie – thanks for your work. Look forward to seeing the next iteration of Zotpress.
   Do you have a public repo (github?) I could check out? Happy to help it along
   if I can.

 * Nice – looking forward to seeing it.
 * As proof-of-concept for a current project, I wrote a dirty function to pull a
   collection into a CPT and have been using Posts-2-Posts to create links.
 * It has been working quite well (for this use case), I just don’t have the time
   build it into a publicly consumable product.
 * Thanks for looking into it.

 * 2.2 still experiencing this. However, when you select “Generate for quick copying”
   it gets all the custom post types. Only the export to file doesn’t work.

 * Sort of – yes. By having each zotero item as an entry in a Custom Post Type (
   say “References” EG: Title: Author,Date Post: Entry, Excerpt: zotero ID ) then
   we can tap into all of the regular WP features: templating, tagging, categorizing,
   calling in the loop, etc. etc.
 * Posts-2-Posts is just one way to create many-to-many relationships across all
   wordpress posts pages and taxonomies…
 * As I understand it, Zotpress now stores data in a raw form in a separate table.
   For many reasons, I am trying to keep things as close to core (native) WP functionality
   as possible.
 * Thanks.

 * I could be wront, but it looks like a function gets registered with a unique 
   ID: an spl_object_cache of the function in question (see: _wp_filter_build_unique_id()).
   So, in order to de-register an anonymous function, one would need to ensure the
   remove_filter function call is the exact same…
 * Not sure myself – but I’ve just seen it tossed out a number of times that WP 
   can’t un-register anonymous functions.
 * Anyway, I’ll just play it “safe” and pollute the place with globals for the time
   being.

 * I supposed safest would be to output and then rebuild all connections based on
   titles instead of ID’s:
 * Old site: Get connection ID’s, replace with titles
    New site: find new IDs for
   titles, rebuild connections
 * Anyone have a template for this? Or am I stuck with building it myself 😉
