Not sure I understand what you are needing here Tiffany...
Are you saying you want to be on page A1, want to use {A1::var} and have it
return {B::var}? This is because A1 is a mirror page for B?
Could you set up an info page called info.redirects with redirect values
like
A1: B
A2: B
A3: B
And then on page A1 you would do {{info.redirects::{p}}::var}
This processes like this:
{{info.redirects::A1}::var}
{B::var}
value...
I haven't tested, just thinking out lout. The vars markup rules can nest
three levels deep.
It also makes it easy to add or remove redirects anytime you want.
Cheers,
Dan
