Although you might be able to do this programatically it renders permalinks irregular.

Moreover you are not allowed to do this through the admin panel, although it is a matter of a simple filter to change the post type for the items in the "Parent" dropdown.

You can already set a parent like this. In fact, WP core does it with attachments.

I am aware of the Posts2Posts plugin, yet I believe this is a very basic feature that should not be achieved through a plugin, rather it should be built into WordPress core.

I think you are looking for "Posts 2 Posts" plugin:

I actually had something else in mind. My suggestion had more to do with custom post types, instead "parent" classes in menu for blogposts.

Yes! This is exactly what I need. I can't make the "Blog" link in my menu highlight as the active page when reading a single post since single posts are not recognised by Wordpress as the child of the Blog page. Some way of assigning which menu link or page is the "parent" of the single posts would be a life saver.

Please everyone vote for this so it gets implemented!!

It would be nice to have a way to set a parent entry from a different post type.

Initially this can simply be a setting when registering the post type -- parent_post_type = page. In case the idea evolves (and I'm sure it will) it can be implemented in a different way.

For hierarchical taxonomies, when you have:

MyTaxonomyParentTerm
-MytaxonomyChildTerm

and you select the child term, it would be nice if the parent term were automatically selected.

This behavior could be optional in wordpress settings so as not to alienate those that use taxonomies in a different way.

Would be great if this were core behavior.

Yeah adding a depth for this would be way handy, actually all of the Wordpress Category functions should include Depth by default.

Great idea.

What I would like to do, is instead of being able to list in a post something like:

CATEGORIES: Chicago, 1 bedroom flat, 1,200 USD

I would like to, instead, be able to call the_category() multiple times, and filter it per parent categories, so I could have something like:

CITY: Chicago
PROPERTY TYPE: 1 bedroom flat
RENT PCM: 1,200 USD

(That is, being Chicago a child category from CITY, 1 bedroom flat a child category from PROPERTY TYPE, and so on)...
