 * Hi forums,
 * I’ve been searching through the plugins for something that can help me but I’m
   starting to think I might have to build this one on my own. But before I give
   in I figured I’d come here and see if anyone has any solutions to my problem 
   using an existing plugin(s).
 * The website I’m working on needs to manage all of the details of an exhibition.
 * 1) The admins running the exhibition set out how many spaces are available each
   with their own unique identifier/name/dimensions – all of this would be stored
   in a table.
 * 2) The users can then sign up for a space using a form. Ideally the spaces defined
   in the table would populate a dropdown in this form. After signing up for one
   of these spaces the space is no longer available in the form.
 * 3) The list of available spaces can be displayed on a page
 * 4) The user can return to a page (like in the “Participants Database” plugin)
   to edit their information and update the database.
 * 5) Photos can be uploaded at a later date and assigned to each user (this would
   be a photo of the work submitted) and then shown in a gallery of images.
 * I realize this is asking a lot, and I wouldn’t expect any one plugin to cover
   all of these. But perhaps there are a few plugins that I can combine somehow 
   to accomplish this.
 * Thanks in advance,
    D’Arcy

 * I’ve had no luck finding anything so I’ve gone about building my own plugin for
   this and am surprised at how much simpler it is than I thought it would be. Marking
   this resolved.
