Nesting Admin Menu Items for Post Types?

    I have created a custom post type of “messages” and now I want to create a custom post type of “series” but I don’t want to have two menu items added in the admin menu (e.g. “Messages” and “Series”), instead I want to have “Messages” and then “Series” under that. How can I accomplish this with CPT UI?

    Thanks,
    Dave

    If you scroll down to the “Show In Menu” setting you’ll see a select input for “true/false” but also a text input below it. It’s that text input you want to use for the post type you want nested.

    For an example, I have 2 post types. “Movies” and “TV”. I wanted “TV” to be nested. So I went to that spot for the TV post type settings, and added “edit.php?post_type=movie” to the text field and hit save. “TV” started showing up nested, but it may not be an exact match from what I can tell. For instance there’s not an “Add New” for both, at least not with my quick testing. Worth tinkering around with settings though to see what results.
