 * Hi everyone!
 * I have a problem with my WordPress setup. I use pages, and i’ve added 5 of them
   and it worked great. The problem is the order they appear on the webpage, they
   are now alphabetical but I would rather choose the order myself and I did this
   in the Admin panel but they are still in Alphabetical order.
 * You’ll find the project here:

 * And the pages i’m talking about are:

 * Ordering the [Pages](http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages) is a two step process:
   
   1. adding the proper number in the “page Order” field 2. Using the proper parameter
   in the [wp_list_pages](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_pages)
   template tag

 * 1.) Done
 * 2.) I’m new at this, and I don’t speak PHP and I can barely understand CSS. It
   would be terrific if you could be more specific. In what file in my folder do
   I need to add what to get the pages to line up according to the order I set in
   the Admin panel?
 * I’, using the theme Fjords01 if it does help. I’d gladly post code from my setup
   if it helps in locating the things to change/replace.

 * if you can post the code, you can find it.
 * look in your theme’s .php files (start with the most logical-sounding ones first,
   and use your text-editor’s find feature to find ‘wp_list_pages’
 * then read the link moshu posted… follow the instructions to use the correct page
   order.
 * when you’re done doing that, you’ll have learned somthing and then you won’t 
   be quite as new at this, right?

 * Ahh, thanks! I took a quicknap and gave it a few minutes and problem solved, 
   added:
    -  <?php
       wp_list_pages(‘sort_column=menu_order&title_li=<h2>’ . __(‘Prose’).‘
      </h2>’ ); ?>
 * in the sidebar.php.
