I guess this is a low priority bug…

Steps to reproduce:

- Visit the sorted bug list by entering [https://meta.discourse.org/category/bug?order=op\_likes&status=open](https://meta.discourse.org/category/bug?order=op_likes&status=open) in the browser’s address bar
- Click on the Discourse logo and navigate to the Latest page

The “Likes” column stays visible, but it shouldn’t.

Hmm this isn’t just for likes. The other ordering params are persisted too.

Ok after some digging around. I don’t think this is a bug. The ordering is meant to be persisted when navigating around as shown by the commit below.

That being said, I do think that the sorting params should be appended to the URL.
