Modeling a nav bar that accepts multiple collections

[runoncedev]

I'm trying to model up a global to use it as a nav bar and I need it to accept multiple collections.

Normally I would create a field for each relationship, but this way I can't manually sort them.

Let's say I have 2 collections:

• Pages
• Categories

I need to add page "Contact" and category "Featured" to the nav bar and manually set the order: I want "Featured" to come first and "Contact" latter.

So I would code the UI that way: first show "page" items and then "category" items.

But then I need to add a secondary nav bar somewhere, and this fixed sorting doesn't cut it. I need to be able to manually sort each menu items.

How can I do this? Is it the right thing to use globals for this use case?
