 * I put my site links in order with the “0,1,2,3… etc” to get them in the order
   that i wanted.
 * After I went back in and edited the slugs, the link order went out of order. 
   I checked and the numbers are still in…
 * anyone know if this is related? and why?
 * Thanks!

 * I thought I had found the solution [here](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_pages)
 * I went into the sidebar.php and replaced the code with this:
 *     ```
       <ul>
       <?php
       wp_list_pages('sort_column=menu_order'); ?>
       </ul>
       ```
   
 * **but it didn’t work. **
 * Here is a link to the site if anyone can tell me why my links are not ordering
   by number… ???

 * I’m not seeing the problem on a test blog.
 * Are you sure you are updating the Page order on those pages?

 * Hey – I thought I was – it works for the other wordpress site I am working on.
   I added a page ordering plug in also and all the pages are in order. So I am 
   not sure why it’s not taking.
 * I may just delete them all and try again since I don’t have actual content on
   them yet… and see if the problem occurs again. Maybe it’s some kind of glitch…

 * Hmmm. so I deleted all the pages and started over and the first two were fine(
   Home / Why Use Skyebuilders…) and as soon as I added “expert tips”, it went out
   of order again. They are numbered 1,2,3.
 * I also downloaded the page ordering plug in and that doesn’t seem to have an 
   effect on the pages at all.
 * I don’t understand? Could there be something in the CSS code that would overwrite
   WP’s ordering system?
