 * I’m using shortcodes on my page, and I want to include just a few pages in the
   list. I’d also like to specify the order somehow.
 * [pagelist_ext show_image=”1″ image_width=”125″ include=”507, 1850,1847,1856″ 
   limit_content=”250″ sort_column=”menu_order” sort_order=”asc”]
 * I was hoping there was a way to display the pages in the order specified in “
   include”, but that doesn’t seem to work. Menu_order sounded like a good idea,
   but I haven’t figured out how that is supposed to work either. I added these 
   pages to my main menu, and it didn’t seem to have an effect.
 * Any ideas?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fset-order-when-using-include%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_
