Ordering collections to appear as you want them
you can add symbols infront of the collection name eg: _(){}[]<>'@=+ and so on. this helps display them in order when you sort by title, that is what Im doing, all my collections show on the first pages and in the order I want.......you can find the order by playing around with the symbols and seeing how they display. Off the top of my head I have used these to get items to display in order (first to last)
_ ' ~ < + > |
place the symbol, then a space, then the collection name, then sort by title and they appear in alphabetical order on the first page, collections first then books........... I use genres name and use one symbol for that section, then change to the next symbol for what ever section I want next and so on.
the list of priority is this....
from first to last, leave a space after symbol then collection name.

2 etc........
hope this helps, and remember once you rename the collections to sort by title, not collection, the all collections will show first.
I use _ for genres, ' for authors etc as this keeps groups together but they will sort alphabetically within the same symbol..... I want genres to show in the list before authors so I use _ for genres and ' for authors so they show after each other but group in order.......
eg:
_ fantasy
_ fiction
_ horror
' Hobb Robin
' Koontz Dean
hope that helps
