On the post editing screen, after saving a post, you will notice that the checked categories are displayed on top, breaking the category hierarchy. This plugin removes that “feature”.
Additionally, it automatically scrolls to the first checked category.
Works with custom taxonomies too.

Category Checklist Tree

Simple and without configuration, it's just does what it says it does.



Works as expected

Really, I just can't understand why WordPress developers walk another way - this is, how it should be! :)
I have launched over 100 websites on WordPress - and they all have this plugin.
Thanks again!

Thanks!
