[[!template id=gitbranch branch=smcv/inline-pagenames author="[[smcv]]"]]
A [[!taglink patch]] in my git repository (the inline-pagenames branch) adds
the following parameter to the [[ikiwiki/directive/inline]] directive:


pagenames - If given instead of pages, this is interpreted as a
space-separated list of links to pages (with the same
[[ikiwiki/SubPage/LinkingRules]] as in a [[ikiwiki/WikiLink]]), and they are inlined
in exactly the order given: the sort and pages parameters cannot be used
in conjunction with this one.


This is on my [[wishlist]] for my [[plugins/contrib/album]] plugin, which currently
uses it internally (as it has already collected the pages in order). It could also
be useful for other things, like [[todo/wikitrails]]. --[[smcv]]
