How to get loops to list hierarchially in browser like before?

I had a nice hierarchial list of my loop folders in the Loop Browser menu list for months, until I screwed it up today.

I had made main folders for my loops which contained subfolders, like this:

Beatnik (in gray lettering)
(indented) Drums
(indented) Percussion
(indented) Synths

and that whole section would be within divider marks, as a group. Then the next category, etc. etc. They were showing up in the browser menu that way, and I loved it. They were located in the root library/audio/Apple loops.

Unfortunately, I moved my stuff around today, and now I lost that nice hierarchial list. When I reindexed everything, now only the main folders, i.e. Beatnik, including the Jam Pack, are listed under the heading called "Other" instead of by itself like it used to be within dividers. My subfolders are not showing up anymore like they used to be.

I remember two things, vaguely: to get rid of stuff showing up in "Other" I had to get the folders out of the ~/...user loops, I think.

I remember there was a little trick I stumbled upon to get this hierarchy, like an extra nested folder, or something. In fact, I added a new folder this morning and had to place it within another folder, or something like that to still get the hierarchy, now I don't remember what but I remember I had to do it twice to get it to work. Without that trick, it didn't work, and unfortunately, I didn't write it down or commit it to memory. But I had a great list.

So, what causes the dividers to appear in the Apple Loop Browser Management list, so that folders will be listed hierarchially like they do in the finder? What is it that makes each section appear within the dividers? and show the hierarchy main folder/subfolder?

How can I get this back? Thanks.
