Comment (by maccast):

 Not sure if this has gotten worse or if I'm experiencing a different
 issue, but I have a site where the `post__in` sort order is not working
 anymore when it was in the past. For me it's doesn't work even if i use a
 string or an array. It was working in the past and I only noticed the
 issue after upgrading to Wordpress 4.7.2.

 Here is my code for reference:


 {{{
 $query_images_args = array( 'post__in' => explode(',',$include),
 'post_parent' => $thePost->ID, 'post_type' => 'attachment',
 'post_mime_type' =>'image', 'post_status' => 'inherit', 'orderby' =>
 'post__in' );

 $featuredPosts = new WP_Query( $query_images_args );
 }}}

 Another possible difference is I'm getting the gallery attachments
 associated with the post, but my `$include` contains the a comma
 seperatedstring of the gallery image_ids in the order I want them sorted
 in.
