 Priority:  normal             |  Milestone:  Awaiting Review
Component:  Posts, Post Types  |    Version:  4.4.1
 Severity:  normal             |   Keywords:
  Focuses:                     |

 '''STEPS TO REPRODUCE''':
 1. Log in as administrator.
 2. Go to Posts->Categories.
 3. Add category: Name - "Test category", Slug - "test-category".
 4. Add category: Name - "Test subcategory", Slug - "test-subcategory",
 Parent - "Test category".
 5. Go to AllPosts page.
 6. Add new post: Title - "Test post", assign it to "Test category".
 7. Add new post: Title - "Test post for subcategory", assign it to "Test
 subcategory".
 8. Go to AllPosts page.
 9. Filter posts by category "Test category".
 '''EXPECTED RESULT''':
 Post "Test post" is presented as a result of filtration.
 '''ACTUAL RESULT''':
 Posts "Test post", "Test for subcategory" is presented as a result of
 filtration. If to follow this logic, post "Test post for subcategory" had
 to be assigned to "Test subcategory" and automatically to parent category
 in the moment of creation.
