Playlist order gets out of order when transferring to my shuffle from new iTunes

Trying to keep the order of songs in my playlist and transfer in that order to my IPod Shuffle. Version 1.0.3 of iTunes has changed the way I used to do it. How do I keep my song order in place on my iPod as it shows in iTunes??????

MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)

Switch to the Songs or List view of your playlist. If you have a playlist showing tracks in the order that you want them you can right-click on the playlist name in the side bar and use Copy to Play Order. Then select the left-most column of numbers as the sort-column (the Play Order) and make sure the chevron is pointed upwards to see the play order that has been captured. If you need to invert the list click the chevron again, copy to play order, then click the chevron one more time. This is the order that should sync to your device.
