Create pages automatically if they don’t exist

I think you want:

if( get_page_by_title( 'home' ) == NULL )
    create_pages_fly( 'home' );

Your original if condition said if the page exists (does not equal NULL), then create the page. Also, the 2nd argument should be a string, though it doesn’t really matter in this case since it’ll just default to 'page' anyway.
