Default Forums that refuse to maintain user selected thread sort

The 3rd level forums under the 2005 - 2008 area still do not maintain user thread sort, insisting on sort by thread title / ascending (it now recognizes the individual profile option or preference selection for other than one day). When using the 'back' button my sort is maintained, but when clicking on the forum name from within a thread it does not.

This issue is common to all of the Powertrain, Handling, and Appearance fora under both the 4.0L and 4.6L levels. The 4.0, 4.6, and Shelby subsections seem to work fine in this respect, as are at least the other fora that I have had occasion to go to, so this seems to be related to the forum level.

Can this be fixed? It's only a minor nuisance to have to reset the sort every time I go to these areas, but becomes a bigger PITA because it does not remember my sort even for the duration of the same session.

I realize that there have been more urgent things to attend to.

Thanks to whoever tried to fix the 4.6L Handling section sort - it seemed to work briefly.

The Powertrain, Handling, and Appearance sections under both the 4.0L Specific and 4.6L Specific. It seems to only occur in sections that are two levels down from the main section.

the software seems to randomly assign settings, as some were fine, and some were not following the conversion. I will fix those sections right now.
