Orderby writing sequence I have this supersimple navigation:

&lt;ul&gt;
   {% for entry in craft.entries.section('homepage, arbeiten, info, kontakt, shop') %}
       &lt;li&gt;
         &lt;a href="{{ entry.url }}"&gt;{{ entry.title }}&lt;/a&gt;
        &lt;/li&gt;
    {% endfor %}
&lt;/ul&gt;


Is it possible to add an order filter which orders the entry by the order I wrote the entry handles? I tried to apply .fixedOrder but that does nothing.
The fixedOrder parameter makes your entries to be returned in the same order as the IDs you pass to the id parameter. So a simple solution would be to look up the entry IDs of your single section entries and get your entries via their IDs instead of the section handles.

{% set entryIds = [3, 14, 15, 9, 26] %}

{% for entry in craft.entries.id(entryIds).fixedOrder(true) %}
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="{{ entry.url }}"&gt;{{ entry.title }}&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
{% endfor %}


You can eighter look up the IDs in the database, or probably faster: add {{ entry.id }} to your current nav loop!

Update: If you have a good reason to get them via their handles, use this snippet to get the entry IDs.

{% set sectionHandles = ['arbeiten', 'info', 'kontakt', 'shop'] %}

{% cache globally for 3 years %}
    {% set entryIds = [3] %}
    {% for handle in sectionHandles %}
        {% set entryIds = entryIds|merge([ craft.entries.section(handle).first().id ]) %}
    {% endfor %}
{% endcache %}
