Hey all
Most likely straight forward situation / question but it would be great to get some feedback.

I want to create a CPT called FAQ's and have it so that the user can also create categories specific to the FAQ's post type. I managed to go and create a Taxonomy called FAQ Categories and assigned it to the FAQ's Post Type. It is working but I need to know if this is the best way to do this. Does this mean that there is no way to say when creating a Post Type, give it category support and make those categories only show in this CPT. I have used other CPY plugins and they seemed to let me do this. If the way I did it is how you would recommend, it seems slightly long winded and to a degree repetitious but at least I will know it is the correct approach.
Hope to hear from you soon.

Peace!
