 * Hello. I want to only include 5 pages on my navigation bar (or w.e. it’s called)
   at the top of my site livingmadegreen.com. I’ve read that you use something like
   this:
    <?php wp_list_pages(‘include=1,2,3,4,5&title_li=’); ?>. If I remove ‘title_li
   =’ then the pages won’t be displayed the way I want them to (the way they are
   now, with tabs for 5 pages) but right now it’s only displaying the first page(
   id=1), but if I switch 1 and 2 so that it says ‘include=2,1,3,4,5’ it will still
   display page 1. Thanks!

 * Hi
 * Include does not set the display order, only which pages are displayed.
 * Display order can be set with the “order” setting on either the page edit page
   or in the quick edit settings. I suggest numbering your pages 5, 10, 15, 20 in
   the order you want them displayed.
 * You will need to add this to wp_list_pages
    wp_list_pages(‘include=1,2,3,4,5&
   title_li=&sort_column=menu_order’)
 * Also, here is a plugin
    [http://www.technokinetics.com/plugins/page-lists-plus/](http://www.technokinetics.com/plugins/page-lists-plus/)
   If you choose to install it, you won’t need to set “include=” because you can
   exclude a page from being in the nav on the edit page for that page with a plugin
   setting. If you find that easier, install the plugin. If you are ok with the 
   include statement, go that route.
