 * Hi,
 * Could anyone help me find step by step instructions for making multi-comic pages?
   I tried googling it but I couldn’t find any of the old documentation. I succesfully
   made a multi-comic page a few months back, but I’m now having a problem where
   multi-comic pages aren’t displaying the images in the right order. Not sure what
   I’m doing wrong or if I’ve somehow just forgotten some of the steps.
 * Thanks in advance!

 * Still having the same problem of the order of images getting mixed up, but discovered
   something about what is happening.
 * I tried adding images one by one instead of doing it in bulk, then saving a draft
   each time. Things looked good for the first five images (inclding the featured
   image) but then the next image I added jumped up to become the first image, then
   I added another one and it placed itself as the second image.
 * I have no idea why it’s happening this way but I’m just hoping this might help
   someone think of a solution to my problem.
 * Again, thanks in advance!

 * This is a bit late as answers go, so I’m directing it more generally at anybody
   who may have this problem in the future. ;P
 * Basically, you set up multiple comics by adjusting the chapter order. In the ‘
   comics->chapters’ menu, you can set up your main titles as top-level (‘parent’)
   chapters. If you have chapters or episodes within these comics, set them up as‘
   child’ chapters and associate them with their would-be parents.
 * Now for the tricky part. To make the navigation browse the comics in the right
   order, you have to assign an order number to each of them. (It’s in the same 
   menu.) These numbers need to be consecutive (1,2,3… or 1001,1002,1003, no matter)
   _within each title_ because the navigation will just stop transversing whenever
   there’s a gap.
 * Make sure you leave enough of a gap between the individual comics, though. This
   ensures your navigation will not traverse into other comics (unless you want 
   that) and you won’t have to renumber the second comic all the time.
    Me, I’m 
   using thousands. The parent chapters are 1000, 2000 etc. and the episodes are
   1001, 1002, 2001, 2002 etc.
 * If you have problems with the ordering of your comics, most likely the chapter
   order is off or the comics aren’t all assigned to the chapters.
