Getting a value from another page for an Inputfield Dependency condition.

I'm wondering if it's possible for an Inputfield Dependency to get a value from an inputfield on another page.

Example:

In the Admin I want an interior page to check if it's in a page selector field on the home page. If it's selected in the page selector on the home page, show a field.

I haven't seen anything that would allow this but I'm hoping it exists.

Hey! Welcome to the forums, skylundi!

Almost everything is possible with hooks. But as it is your  first post there is a chance you do not need complicated solutions. Please explain your case a littlt deeper - maybe there is some simple way we can suggest.

And there is this nice module if you need just to show something on condition.

a quick way to do this would be to use RuntimeMarkup field:

in that field code you would determine the outcome of the test (check to see if this page is in a page select from the other page) and the output a field with value 1 or 0;

for example if your field was called inPageSelect, then you'd get the runtime markup to output a hidden field with a value of 1 or 0, and then in your dependency you'd put show if "inPageSelect=1"

This is great.

I am looking to find where in the page list it exists. I think that's possible with this plugin if I'm reading the documentation correctly.
