Yes, my site at nOObish.me (rebuilt earlier today) is also misbehaving in this very same way.
Here is my current Plugins list…
You can see in the following 2 images that they are showing the same URL…
However the first image (erroneously) shows all Topics…
While the second image properly shows just Topics in the “Tech News” Category…
After the first click on the Category “Tech News” (erroneously showing all Topics… )
After the second click on the Category “Tech News” (or next refreshing the page)… just Topics in the “Tech News” Category are properly displayed…
You can try reproducing this on my nOObish.me site…
-
Click the Tech News category at the bottom of the Categories drop-down, and then click it a second time (or then refresh the page.) You can see it changes from showing all Topics to properly showing only the “Tech News” Category Posts.

Now go back to the site home page (which I have set to the Categories page on this site) and do it again.
The very same behavior occurs with the Tags drop-down on the Categories page.
Besides the Categories page, all the rest (Latest, New, Top) are behaving correctly on my site.
Only 3 of the 8 desktop category page style settings are showing this behavior:
- Categories and Latest Topics (sort by created date)
- Categories and Latest Topics
- Categories and Top Topics
OK - I’ve now disabled every Plugin and run ./launcher rebuild app and the behavior persists.
Or might a specific Theme Component be the culprit?
I have now also tried disabling all Theme Components but the behavior persists.
Could an installed but de-activated Plugin or Theme Component be the culprit?
