Hierarchical Custom Post Types in WordPress
You need to set both of these things to make it work correctly:
register_post_type( 'docs',
array(
'labels' => array(
'name' => __( 'Documentation' ),
'singular_name' => __( 'Documentation Page' ),
'add_new' => __( 'Add Documentation Page' ),
'add_new_item' => __( 'Add New Documentation Page' ),
'edit_item' => __( 'Edit Documentation Page' ),
),
'public' => true,
'has_archive' => true,
'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'docs' ),
'show_in_rest' => true,
'hierarchical' => true,
'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'thumbnail', 'excerpt', 'page-attributes' )
)
);
Now when you are on the Create/Edit screen for the new Post Type, you’ll see the Page Attributes area that allows you to select the Parent you’d like.

I followed a guide to create custom post types with a plugin on my site, but I did not know about the possibility of making the hierarchical. May have to make use of this – thank you for the guide.
