Nested Blog Posts
·
Enable parent/child hierarchy for standard Posts and generate nested permalinks like /parent/child/ (unlimited depth).
Nested Blog Posts makes the built-in Posts post type behave more like Pages:
- Adds a Parent dropdown to Posts.
- Generates hierarchical permalinks like
/parent/child/(supports unlimited depth). - Routes nested URLs correctly so you don’t get 404s or forced redirects to
/child/.
This plugin does not contact external servers and does not collect user data.
How to use
- Enable the plugin (Settings → Nested Blog Posts → Enabled).
- Create a Parent blog post (a normal Post).
- Create a Child blog post and set its Parent in the editor sidebar (Post → Parent).
- To create a deeper tree, set the new post’s Parent to the previous child.
Example:
/parent/child/grandchild/ - If you disable the feature later, the plugin automatically refreshes rewrite rules and WordPress will fall back to normal post behavior.
