 Is there a way to test features other than plugins? For example,
 to add to [[ikiwiki/Markdown]] something like
 
-    \[[if test="enabled(multimarkdown)" then="You can also use..."]]
+    \[[!if test="enabled(multimarkdown)" then="You can also use..."]]
 
 (I tried it like that just to see if it would work, but I wasn't that lucky.)
