Wayfinder can include specific resources manually through includeDocs, but that does not mean the result will automatically match your menu depth assumptions. The original case came from a resource that appeared as if it belonged to another level entirely.

Typical Call

[[Wayfinder?
 &level=`3`
 &ignoreHidden=`1`
 &includeDocs=`48`
 &startId=`0`
]]

What to Remember

includeDocs forces documents into the result set
the rendered position still depends on tree structure and template logic
depth rules and branch rules should be reviewed together

If a menu item appears in the wrong place, first check the actual document tree, then the Wayfinder parameters, and only then the chunk markup. In many cases the menu is doing exactly what the tree tells it to do.
