I want to be able to sort references in different folders/groups differently. I don’t want it to affect everything else.

Yes, thank you. I am wanting to sort within different folders (groups) in different ways. For example, in group A, I want it to stay sorted by publication year, and in folder B, I want it to stay sorted alphabetically by author. As it is now, if you sort by “date added” (as an example), it will sort all folders/groups in the same manner.
