I use a WordPress site to keep notes on a variety of subjects, they are organised as parents / children. I needed a simple way to show them in a nested list that reflected their hierarchy. So I wrote this plugin to do just that.
Once installed it addes a widget that will allow you to select which post type to display. It’s generally handy if you have hierarchical custom post types or a lot of deeply nested pages. On the front end, this adds a script to load in the post list asyncrously – this lets your website load first without having to worry about pulling together the list of all your posts. Onec the site is loaded, then all the posts will load. Another resource saver for you – the posts are organised into their hierarchical order client side. This means the server just spits out an array of posts and sends them to the visitor’s browser. Once they arrive the visitors browser will do the work of orgaisaiton.

Gutenberg Editor already maintains the parent-child relationship when you select a category. So the child doesn’t move at the top in the category meta box. So this plugin isn’t required if you’re using the Gutenberg Editor.
Categories in Hierarchical Order plugin applies to WordPress Classic Post Editor only.
This plugin contains functionality to let you maintain default hierarchical order of categories when you select and save them for a post in your WordPress Admin Classic Post Editor.
The selected category/categories, to which a post belongs, are by default pushed at the top in the Category tab while saving the post. Whereas activating Categories in Hierarchical Order plugin will keep the position of selected category/categories unchanged as per their parent/child relationship.

Categories in Hierarchical Order

Does exactly what you expect from this plugin. Nice!

Works great!

Does exactly what should be the default option in Wordpress, great! Sorely needed if you have many categories (possibly with very similar names) and rely on a complex hierarchy.

Great!

Perfect

Why is this not part of the WordPress core yet? This plugin fixed my ugly looking category structure! Thanks guys!

Brilliant!
