The more I think about this the more I think it is the correct way to go.

I will probably fix this on Monday so if you do not like the sounds of it
let me know.

Geeklog can Cache information now with the new template class

Right now there is a new config variable called caching_templates which
controls if all caching is enabled or disabled.

With caching you can cache both the template files of a theme or any other
information (I currently have it setup to cache the what's new block and the
topic tree with stories to follow).

I am now wondering if caching_templates should enable or disable just the
caching of templates and leave everything else on all the time. This would
make things cleaner (for example right now there is a spot to store the
topic tree in the sessions db table as well as the vars table or, you can
cache it). Sometimes it does make sense to control caching of certain
information (like the what's new block since I cannot determine all the time
when something gets added) but for things like the topic tree and stories
where I always know when it is updated/deleted/added there is no reason not
to have the cache enabled for these things all the time.

So I am leaning towards having the caching_templates config option to just
enable and disable the actual caching of templates and for the other items
they will have their own config options when needed. Does this sound okay?

You need ?display=all when you use a static page to replace the entire front
page but then want to link to the normal list of stories. Like when you use
a static page as a sort of "splash screen" before you can enter the actual
site.
