What are water closet bedpan lugs?
The special bolts that hold a toilet to the floor.
Should the closet flange be level with the floor or be 14 inches higher than the floor?
Sure. Either way. The wax ring seals the toilet to the closet flange so it doesn't really matter that much. The important part is that the toilet be mounted firmly to the floor so that it doesn't move. That would cause the wax ring to fail then the toilet would leak around the flange.
Should you glue your toilet closet flange to your pipe?
No, it is not recommended to glue the toilet closet flange to the pipe. The flange should be secured to the floor using bolts or screws, and the toilet is then secured to the flange using wax rings or sealing gaskets. Gluing the flange to the pipe can make it difficult to remove or replace the toilet in the future.

Yes, you can install it in a closet as long as there is nothing obstructing the box or nothing has to be moved to get to the box. You must also have 3 feet of clearance around the box and the door must be able to be opened 90 degrees. You cannot install it in a closet located in a bathroom. The top of the box can be no higher than 6' off the floor or less than 4' off the floor. Ceiling must be at least 6' tall.
How do you turn your basement toilet 90 degrees the bottom of the closet flange is resting on the floor?
It is probably PVC and the bolts that hold the toilet down don't line up? You may have to cut the flange off of the pipe for this to work. Toilets vary a bit on the drain on the bottom and exactly how far it sticks down. They make a steel repair ring that you can screw down to the floor and position as needed. It is just a flat ring with the toilet bolt slots and 6 ears for screwing to the floor. Use Tapcon self taping concrete screws and it should work fine. Or you can jack hammer out the floor, cut the closet flange off and put a new one on the right direction. Just a thought.
