Classifying Your Posts with Custom Taxonomies

A taxonomy is a system of classification.

WordPress provides two taxonomies: Categories and Tags.

You add custom taxonomies of your own: like Categories or Posts, but using terminology customized for a specific purpose.

Custom taxonomies create new pages which the user can browse for more detailed information.

For example, custom taxonomies related to Products might include:

  • Color (black, white red)
  • Size (small, medium, large)
  • Material (fabric, leather)

Custom taxonomies are most useful for large web sites with large amounts of relatively complex information.

See WordPress Custom Taxonomy.
