About turning titles into URL slugs
Slugify folds accents, replaces spaces with a separator you choose, optionally strips punctuation, and can cap length for CMS fields. The result updates as you type. Hyphens are the usual public URL. Underscores fit file names and some APIs. Slashes are for path-like segments, not a full router.
Worked example: “Café au lait — Spring 2026!” with hyphen, lowercase, and strip becomes cafe-au-lait-spring-2026. kebab-case Converter only joins words; it does not fold é or cap length. Max length trims after the slug is built and drops a trailing separator.
Limitations: we do not guarantee uniqueness against a database, we do not transliterate every script into ASCII equally, and we do not percent-encode (use URL Encode). Related: case converters, Find & Replace, URL Encode. Nothing is uploaded.

Slugify Text FAQ
It turns headlines and phrases into URL-safe slugs. Accents are folded, spaces become your chosen separator, and the result updates as you type — nothing is uploaded.
No. Slugify runs locally in this tab. Headlines, titles, and notes stay on your device.
kebab-case only lowercases words and joins them with hyphens. Slugify also folds accents, can strip special characters, supports hyphen, underscore, or slash separators, and can cap the length for CMS fields.
It trims the slug so it never exceeds the limit you set (8–120 characters). Trailing separators are removed after the cut so the result stays clean.
Yes. Characters such as é are folded to ASCII (e) before the slug is built, so Café au lait becomes cafe-au-lait with the default options.
