This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: I would like to use a hierarchical directory structure in my custom post type permalinks.
Solution: Custom code or a 3rd-party plugin is required to show a hierarchical directory structure like this.

Hi Christian, Hope you're well.
I have a section set up on our site called "Brand Related". Within that section, I have several subsections using Custom Post Types. For example, I have Brand Terms, Brand Quotes, Brand Facts… all living within Brand Related.
The issue I'm seeing is that, when I look at the breadcrumbs and/or URLs, they're not reflective of the hierarchical parent/child structure. (see attached screen shots). Everything seems to work, until the point where you actually go to one of the individual brand term pages.
Main landing page for Brand Terms
Correct: …/brand-related/brand-terms/
All Terms starting with the letter A (set up with Toolset Views)
Correct: …/brand-related/brand-terms/a/
Individual Brand Term Page
Incorrect: …/brand_terms/accelerator-principle/
Ideally, this should be: …/brand-related/brand-terms/a/accelerator-principle/
Secondly, when I try to change the custom post type slug to "brand-terms" instead of "brand_terms" I get an error message (see attached screen shot). Not sure if or how this is fixable.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Cheers,
Laura
