Taxonomy

A method of organising and classifying your content. The WordPress default taxonomies are categories and tags.

Slug

The part of the URL that identifies the page. For example, if you are using the /%postname%/ permalink structure your slug will be the name of the post.

Rewrite Rules

The method used for rewriting your URLs on the fly. Makes use of Apache’s mod_rewrite engine. By default, ?post_type=popcorn is the same as /popcorn. If you’re an advanced user you can set your own rewrite rules.

Storage, Meta-based
