   I want to retrieve a custom set of pages and sort them manually (in the post__in order)

   my code is:

   query_posts(array(
   'post__in'=>array('16','20','22'),
   'post_type'=>'page',
   'order' => 'post__in'
   ));
   
   if ( have_posts() ) while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
   	the_title();
    endwhile;

   But the output is the titles ordered by date.
   I am using the 'order' => 'post__in' as used in this article.

   as far as i can read, that article uses:

   'orderby' => 'post__in'

   it also assumes that you have activated that plugin.

   Thanks alchymyth, I am using the plugin at the moment. My question was more about the wordpress core. If I can have that result without using a third party plugin.
   I want just to display posts in a specified order.
   I could do multiple loops using WPquery but this is a funny solution :)

   This page has all the available options you can pass into 'orderby' without using any plugin. Perhaps one of them is what you're looking for?
