[Simon]

If there a function that can be used in a recipe to test if

* a pagename exists in any group

* a fullname (group.page) exists?

You can use:

$at_least_one_exists = CondExists("*.MyPage,Group.Otherpage");

Note that this is case insensitive. To make it case sensitive, use:

CondExists("*.MyPage,Group.OtherPage", false);

This should be called after any code that modifies $WikiDir or
$WikiLibDirs. Some skins and recipes do.

This tells you that at least one page matches your pattern, but not
which page exactly.

To get the names of these pages, use this instead:

$list = ListPages("*.MyPage,Group.Otherpage");
