After installing this plugin in clean installation of WordPress I filled up that
2 inputs with a single post_type name "sliders" (without quotes of course) and it
created "SLIDERS pages" menu item – it works – even URLs are ok – without base slug
But posts and pages now appear as 404 I tried to re-save permalinks, deactivate 
and reactivate plugin, but same result everytime

Notice: register_post_type was called incorrectly. Post type names must be between
1 and 20 characters in length. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.(
This message was added in version 4.2.0.) in //wp-includes/functions.php on line
4139 and a heap of other errors.
