Front Page Rotators-Take Two

    Ok so I have my code for my front page rotators - I have the fixed order ready to go, but it still isn’t working.

    I have 7 rotators that I want to rotate in a specific order - I think I have the html written correctly to have them in the correct display order -but nothing is happening.  Here is how the code is written:

    {embed="includes/frontpage_rotator_random"} 
    {exp:weblog:entries weblog="frontpage_rotator" fixed_order="2560|1|2|4|6|9|12"}
    <h2{title}</h2>
    {/exp:weblog:entries}

    Now I realize that in the first line it says “random”, which I’m speculating could be my problem…but every time I try to get rid of the word “random”, the front page rotators disappear completely off of the page.

    Could it be that I have the wrong entry id’s? No idea! Where do you find what the actual entry id is for each rotator? I’m just using the number that appears under the # sign on the left-side of the page where it shows me all of the entries. I feel like I’m close to solving the problem, but I’m missing one or two integral pieces of the puzzle.

    Any ideas?!

    Thanks!
