WordPress Taxonomies

When WordPress 3.0 introduced hierarchical taxonomies nearly a decade ago, taxonomies became an even more useful tool in the toolkit of WordPress developers. On a high level, we can think of taxonomies as ways of grouping things together. Within the WordPress platform, a taxonomy is a mechanism for grouping things like posts, custom post types, or links.
