Description Carl Fürstenberg 2008-06-22 19:13:29 UTC if template A contains "<includeonly>subst:</includeonly>#ifexist:{{FULLPAGENAME}}| true | false }}" and we first create page B with "{{subst:A}}", then the result will be "false", if we then re-edit page B, and again write "{{subst:A}}, the result is still "false". Comment 1 Carl Fürstenberg 2008-06-25 14:02:35 UTC forgot that variables isn't transparent to subst (which they should be imo)
