  If you do not succeed then we need to know what the title of the missing and/or URL of the missing Page or sub-page is.

  re: changing the order of Pages, not Posts

  There are two approaches.
  1. If you have only pages in your horizontal menu and that’ is all you want in it see here to use numerical order. http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-attributes/#order
  See also https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-attributes/#parent

  2. Creating a Custom Menu http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#creating-a-custom-menu

  Custom menu Troubleshooting – My pages are in the wrong order
  Check the sub-pages themselves to see if you have established a Parent page and child page “hierarchical structure” in the page attributes module. Remove if required.

  Also remove any “order” numbers you have assigned that may conflict with the order you are creating by dropping and dragging. Or simply change them so they are the same order as you establish in the menu. Establish consistency – problem solved.
