Hello,
I need to slug a custom taxonomy "auteur", but Toolset says it's a reserved field.
I don't understand why or where.
Thank you.

It's not Toolset, it's WordPress that says that 🙂

When a GUI blocks you from doing something, usually it is due to such a deeper reason, especially when there is a plausible warning in the GUI, you can assume it to be no bug but expected

In this case, it is clearly expected by WordPress core to not create any content with those slugs.

But, if you refer to the french "auteur", that word can be used, however in case you already used it (for a page, for example) then you cannot (you cannot re-use any slug used already for another content type)

Does this help?
