WordPress doesn't support parent/child relationships between sites, therefore this functionality must be provided by a plugin on your site. Please report these issues to the author of the plugin.

John, I meant pages, not sites. Wrong translation from German... reopened the ticket.

  • Keywords dev-feedback 2nd-opinion added

This is confirmed as well.

However, can we consider this as a defect since the sort by date does exactly what it is supposed to do which is ordered by date instead of parent/child hierarchy?

Dashes seem like they'd be meaningless when not in a sort order that respects hierarchy. Some kind of alternative display for page parents would be worth exploring (breadcrumb trail or some other kind of string), there have been some other times I've noticed that would be useful.

  • Keywords close added; dev-feedback 2nd-opinion removed

Suggesting closing as wontfix.

An alternative approach as mentioned by Helen seems best. This can happen outside of a regular release cycle, e.g. in a feature plugin.

dashes will be good, although,waht @helen said,i might not agree fully,
because i might have pages:

pages/jesika
and
pages/neoghbors/jesika

and one dash and two dashes will give me some hint/
