How can I manually order collection titles for different types of wine?

[dc_4]

Hi there,

I’m creating a new theme based on a design that someone else has worked on, for a vineyard that sell all different types of wines. I’ve set up different collections for each type of wine, e.g. Red, White, Pink… etc.

In the design there’s a mini navigation component which lists all these wine types/collections with a link into the relevant collection page. The problem is, the order in which the titles are displayed in the design is giving me some issues, as {% for collection in collections %} is giving me back an alphabetical list, like so:

The order should be, Red, White, Pink, Six Packs, Gifts, View all. Not alphabetical at all.

Is there a way that I can manually do this ordering? I can’t seem to find a way!

Many thanks

Is there a reason why you’re doing the navigation with a collection loop? To me it would make more sense to use an actual link list (menu). You’d be able to add whatever links you wanted into that along with setting the order that makes sense.

I hadn’t thought of doing that actually, but makes perfect sense to. Thanks!
