Geeklog 1.4.1 BETA 1

There is no plan to do that as of now.
Further, the ways how topics, stories and other things work together makes it an extrmely high effort to do that.
In order to get that done, you would have to rewrite very large portions of the code just to prepare the transfer, let alone writing the plugin.

On a side-note, if you take out the stories, and want to have a forum-based portal only, you might have an easier way with a pure forum-based site that is using phpBB or similar together with plugins for that forum software.

Geeklog 1.4.1 BETA 1

Actually, I've looked at the code and I don't think it would be too difficult to pull stories into their own plugin. The only real trouble is dealing with article.php since it would be in the wrong location but you would have to maintain it for backward compatibility. Topics would still work fine since they work now with the other plugins. story.php and submit.php would shrink a lot (moved into a story/functions.inc file).

I don't want just a forum system. If I did, I'd already be using phpBB (or similar). I'm more interested in the static pages part. In fact, I can't wait for 1.4.1 because I have topics with 1 dummy story that I have to update constantly to eliminate the "no stories found" message. I had been planning to make a topic option that would eliminate that message but a $_CONF option works just as well.

Maybe I'll submit a patch for 1.5 :-)
