In [this example wiki](http://www.willthompson.co.uk/tmp/ikiwiki-nested-inline/), the following pages exist: + + * _pets_: contains some content, and the directive `inline pages="pets/* and !pets/*/*"` to inline its immediate children. + * _pets/dogs_: some content, and `inline pages="pets/dogs/*"`. + * _pets/dogs/fifi_, _pets/dogs/rover_: content. + * _pets/cats_, _pets/cats/mumu_, _pets/cats/ceefer_: similar. + +When rendered, _pets_ [contains](http://www.willthompson.co.uk/tmp/ikiwiki-nested-inline/output/pets/) the content from _pets/dogs_ and _pets/cats_, but not the pages inlined into them.
