Pagination and custom post types that have a hierarchy

[sherdev]

Pagination is not working well with custom post types that have a parent-child structure (a hierarchy).

In my opinion it's a bug since wordpress supports custom post types.

It's a known behavior that WP doesn'T support pagination when there is a hierarchy of parent-child documents. no ?

Hello @sherdev,

Welcome to WordPress Core Trac.

I'm not understanding the bug being reported. Can you please provide more detailed information as well as step-by-step instructions on how to reproduce the bug.

WordPress supports hierarchical post types, including custom post types. It also supports parent-child hierarchy in the pagination. See developer docs for more information ​https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/register_post_type/.

​Here's an example of Books custom post type with parent and child books that uses the Query Block.

Ticket updates for triage:

• Marking this ticket as a close candidate, as the pagination is working for me and am currently thinking this is not a core bug. That said, not closing yet pending more information being provided by the reporter.
• Removing 6.6.2 as the Version that introduced the reported bug, as no changes were made in 6.6.2 related to it and comments seem to indicate occurred before 6.6.2.
