Categorizing questions

Categories allow us to filter the results and limit them to a certain extent. It's an essential feature in the question-answer application so that users can directly view questions related to their topic instead of browsing all the questions. WordPress provides categories by default. However, these categories are mainly intended for posts. Therefore, we have to use custom taxonomies to create categories for custom post types such as questions. More details about taxonomies will be discussed in the following chapters.
