WP Category Order
v4.5.3 · by Monika Yadav
Display WordPress post categories in parent–child hierarchy while editing posts in the admin panel
About this plugin
This plugin allows you to display checked categories in hierarchical order. Selected categories will remain in their defined order rather than moving to the top of the list.
It helps maintain the structure of parent and child categories in the post editor, making it easier for users to follow the taxonomy hierarchy when assigning categories.
