This would give us the ability to have "Cross-site ListPages" and could be quite useful. It was originally proposed by etnolinguistica here (over 2 years ago) and more recently discussed later in the same thread. It would be most powerful if it accepted a comma separated list of site names so we could merge the results into one list. For example:
[[module ListPages site="community, snippets, handbook" tags="listpages" order="name" perPage="10"]]
%%site%% - %%title_linked%%
[[module]]
I was surprised there was never a formal wish for this. I suppose that could mean that there's little interest, but it seems like it should be fairly easy to implement. From a security standpoint, we could block others from listing our pages based on the setting used to block other cross-site includes.
I just realized it would be nice to have extra variables related to the site:
Any others I'm not thinking of at the moment?

Thanks, Ed! How about cross-site backlinks? Would that involve the same kind of development, or should there be another wish?

I'd say it's a separate wish and if you ask nicely, maybe they can implement both features at the same time. :-)

Yes this would be very useful. Up voted.
