Until today, going to a sub would load post sorting by /new as it is set in my options to do. Going to a sub today causes it to load into /hot instead of into /new.

Going to https://poal.co/s/antiwhite would load into https://poal.co/s/antiwhite/new as I have it set to load in my preferences.

Starting today, going to https://poal.co/s/antiwhite is causing it to load into https://poal.co/s/antiwhite/hot instead of /new as it did previously as per my preference setting.

That is, other than this /s/poaldev sub which does respect my preference setting.

I tried changing the option, saving it, then changing it back, but subs still load into /hot instead of /new for me.

Is this my misunderstanding or a bug?

EDIT: It seems some subs are loading into /hot while some others also load into /new. It seems that subs are sorting by the default method configured on the subs and the sort preference option is non-functional and the style selected by the user for post sorting is being ignored.

That’s normal. That option is for general sorting in /all and /home, not in subs.

I haven't checked yet, but I think I may have reported this once before and I think you had responded with pretty much the same info. Sorry if that is the case, and thank you.

I had believed that option would affect all pages on poal and not just the main page of whether to autoload into all/hot, all/new, etc.

I clearly spend most of my time browsing poal from all/new and I suppose it has just been a long time since I've gone into an actual sub.

Thank you!

It could be a new sorting option/setting in user prefs though (Default sub posts sort).

And if would only follow sub's default post sorting when set to "sub default".

If you like the idea, feel free to post it in /s/IdeasForPoal.

Since my last comment I was thinking about how to word a request for that option to describe that same functionality. I'll post it as a request tomorrow using your wording and description if nobody else reading this thread posts it first between now and when I get back on tomorrow.
