Ordering doesn't work consistently

  • Hello, great plugin but I’m having trouble getting it to work consistently in WP 3.4 and up. I’m using the widget on 8 different pages in one section. Each of the 8 pages has 5 child pages, some of those have further child pages (Home > Parent > Child > Grandchild) .

    On 5 of the pages (and their respective child/grandchild pages) the hierarchy works, showing the parent page at the top with child pages under it:

    Parent
    dogs
    cats
    cows

    Great! But despite the other 3 pages set up in the exact same way, there is no hierarchy and all pages are listed with no ‘indent’ or indication of which is child and which is parent:

    dogs
    cats
    cows
    Parent

    On all 8, ordering is a problem and appears to be random. ID/post_title/menu_order . There are associated ‘filler’ menus but they are tertiary and not used on this page. The ordering does change if I use ASC vs DESC, but that’s it. How does the menu_order work? I might be missing that connection.

    Is there anything that can be done to help? Many thanks.
