    Yes, you can have SEF URLs on forums (or memberlists) sorted in a non-default way.

    In the configuration file, you will find the following:
    Code:
    define('VBSEO_DEFAULT_MEMBERLIST_SORT', 'username');
    define('VBSEO_DEFAULT_MEMBERLIST_ORDER', 'asc');
    define('VBSEO_DEFAULT_FORUMDISPLAY_SORT', 'lastpost');
    define('VBSEO_DEFAULT_FORUMDISPLAY_ORDER', 'desc');
    Simply replace:
    Code:
    define('VBSEO_DEFAULT_FORUMDISPLAY_SORT', 'lastpost');
    define('VBSEO_DEFAULT_FORUMDISPLAY_ORDER', 'desc');
    With:
    Code:
    define('VBSEO_DEFAULT_FORUMDISPLAY_SORT', 'title');
    define('VBSEO_DEFAULT_FORUMDISPLAY_ORDER', 'desc');
    and Voilá

    No templates have to be modified. You CAN modify your footer template if you want to force the copyright to be shown in a specific location.

    Currently it is not possible to define sorting per forum. However, we may add this as a new config option.

    Just making available a custom plugin that was created for s2kinteg916's request. Others might benefit from it .

    Plugin includes the following simple code:
    Code:
     
    if($forumid==11)
    {
    $sqlsortorder = $sortorder = 'ASC';
    $sqlsortfield = $sortfield = 'thread.title';
    $handled = true;
    }
    Users can simply customize the forumid and sort column in the file.

    Attached: custom_forum_sort.xml
