[wk_terms /] for displaying categories, tags, any other taxonomies, works through the WP_Term_Query class.
[wk_posts /] for displaying posts, pages and any other post types, WK_posts receives data through the WP_Query class
[wk_pages /] output of hierarchical structures of pages, posts and other types of posts, the data is obtained using the get_pages() function

Shortcodes pass all call parameters to the corresponding functions and receive the initial data set from them.
