How to show child page links on parent pages?

Question

How to show child page links on parent pages in Confluence 5.4.2?

Darren Johnston · Answer

this will change display children (so if not shown then show them)  I think it must be disabled by default
#if ($action.childrenNotShown)
        #renderChildren()
        #end

I'd also like to know if there is somewhere in the settings where we can set the action.childrenNotShown value to true or false.  In my case, I want to set it to false so that the parent pages in a space do NOT display children pages by default.

On the page layout I found the following code snippet in the view section. How to make  the condition (#if (!$action.childrenNotShown)) to true in order to render children?

#if (!$action.childrenNotShown)

#renderChildren()

#end
