I am using custom taxonomy plugin. And I have custom Post type "Product".

When I am creating new taxonomy "home and garder Appliances Washin" and attaching it to Post or "Product" it's not registering with these while If I am adding just "home and garder Appliances Washi" and attaching with either Post or Product it is working fine.

Is there any length restriction when Creating Custom Taxonomies?
