Tell us what you are trying to do?

I have one CPT and two custom taxonomies for it. Is it possible to arrange the URLs like this:

aiel.com/CPTpluralname/tax1term (so preferably not aiel.com/CPTpluralname/tax1name/tax1term)
aiel.com/CPTpluralname/tax2term

Is seems not possible because if I enter the same text (CPTpluralname) for rewrite slug in both taxonomies, I get 404s. I don't know why WordPress doesn't automatically insert the CPT name in the slug, or allow you to use a front base that is different from standard posts. (The CPT does not have its own archive).

Sorry I didn't mean to click the chat button - it might be better to put it to the right of the submit button?

It seems it does work if one of the taxonomies has the taxonomy name in the slug, which as I said is not really needed, so:

aiel.com/CPTpluralname/tax1name/tax1term

but it's not the end of the world. The way I want the URLs actually seems the most logical to me...
