# Taxonomies

This configuration contains parameters that HivePress uses for registering the custom taxonomies. Each taxonomy is defined as an array of parameters accepted by the [register\_taxonomy](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/register_taxonomy/) function. The array key is used as the taxonomy name (prefixed with `hp_`).

The code example below changes the listing category URL slug and its label in the WordPress dashboard menu. In the same way, you can customize any of the available taxonomies or register a new one by adding an array with the taxonomy parameters.

```php
add_filter(
	'hivepress/v1/taxonomies',
	function( $taxonomies ) {

		// Change URL slug.
		$taxonomies['listing_category']['rewrite']['slug'] = 'custom-slug';

		// Change menu label.
		$taxonomies['listing_category']['labels']['name'] = 'Custom Text';

		return $taxonomies;
	}
);
```
