Common use cases

Frequently asked questions

Should I change a slug after a page is published? +

Not casually — old links may stop working, so choose a good slug before publishing.

Does it remove punctuation? +

Yes, punctuation and extra spaces are removed and words are joined with hyphens.

Is a shorter slug better? +

A brief, specific slug is usually easier for people to read and share than a long string of keywords.
