Hi,
We need to create a shortcode that displays the linked categories in hierarchical order instead of alphabetical.
Is it possible to achieve it with a function to be placed in the functions.php file of the child theme and then set a shortcode that will be called in the article editor?Thanks for your help

Hi there,
Sorry just to confirm, this is not what you are looking for?

I would recommend the following two solutions:
– Try this plugin:
https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/taxonomy-terms-order/– Open a support topic with the WordPress support team and ask them if they can provide a way to modify that widget (it’s a WP core widget) to the way you want.
where did you take the screenshot of the categories order box?
I see it’s in the widget area but I need to place them in a hook or a specific place in the article, maybe we will use the plugin.
thanksThat’s from the Widgets screen. The Categories widget is a WordPress core widget:
