 * Hi,
 * Is it possible to custom order the authors list? Like WP Posts is it possible
   to do orderby=menu_order or specifically stick some authors to the top, or precisely
   control the ordering of all authors like orderlikethis=”21,33,9,72…”
 * Thanks

 * Yeah, use `include="1,2,3,4"` combined with `orderby="include"` and `order="ASC"`
 * Here’s an example:
 * `[authors_list include="1,2,3,4" orderby="include" order="ASC"]`
