I noticed this over on @john_mardlin’s [community.coinbase.com](http://community.coinbase.com), where `show subcategory list` is enabled.

**If I go to…**

There is no “Latest, Top, New”

**However, if I go to…**

There is.

I thought “maybe there’s a good reason for Discourse behaving like that when sub-categories are listed”, but then I noticed that the “Latest, Top, New” menu was also suppressed in parent categories that didn’t have any sub-categories, like this one:

That strikes me as a UX glitch. I reproduced this on Try to confirm that this isn’t happening due to a customisation on Coinbase’s forum.

Looks like a legit bug! Here’s a fix:
