 * I’m trying to include or exclude pages from my nav. Actually I’m also trying 
   to create a copy of the main template, but change the nav pages to that page.
 * I’ve used the
    <?php wp_list_pages(‘exclude=3&depth=2&title_li=&sort_column=menu_order’);?
   >
 * and it doesn’t seem to work correctly. Sometimes doing the opposite ie: if I 
   wanted to INclude page 3, then putting EXclude would do something.
 * Now it’s almost all or nothing. Sometimes depending on what number I put, it’ll
   either take all of the pages out, put them all in, or maybe just include say 
   page 1, but not because that’s what I put.
 * The main page is page 1-5. On the new page nav I want, say 10-15.
 * I’ve read in other posts to number pages 5, 10, 15, 20. Why is this?

 * Make sure you are using the correct Page IDs in the `include=` or `exclude=` 
   arguments.
