Hi,
in a CRED form (Inserisci Libro) i'm trying to insert a select generated by a taxonomy view.
The view correctly populates the select but Hierarchy is not respected and even the order of items.
Here you can see the form: hidden link

Here the credential:
<REMOVED BECAUSE PUBLIC>

The Generic Select input will not influence the ordering of the View you use, so if the View already returns properly ordered items, so they will be ordered in the generic Select

You order that View by Term Group Field, so that is what you will see in the generic Select field as well, as it is populated by Views.
There is no orderby "hierarchy" to choose, you can use ID, this likely comes the closest to sort by hierarchy, but not exactly.

I also suggest updating WordPress, and the Toolset Plugins (although this will not "resolve" the reported problem).

To have a Hierarchically ordered list (of terms) you need several Views, each nested in the "parent term" view.
