Slug generator

title → URL-safe slug · presets & transliteration · batch

Turn any string into a clean slug: transliterates Unicode, lowercases, replaces separators, trims length. Batch-friendly for migrations.

Input (one title per line for batch)

Preset Separator Case Max length Transliterate

Output

Ready.

How to use

Paste a single title or a list (one per line).
Pick a Preset (WordPress, Ghost, Hugo, Jekyll, GitHub anchor) or configure manually:
- Separator (-, _, none)
- Case (lower / preserve)
- Max length (with smart word boundary)
- Transliterate (German ü → ue, Cyrillic, Greek, etc.)
Output appears in the same order. For batch input, get a two-column table (title → slug) ready to copy as CSV.

Preset cheatsheet

WordPress / Ghost / Hugo / Jekyll — kebab-case, lower, transliterated, 100-char cap.
GitHub anchor — same case rules as the heading but symbols stripped. Leading numbers are kept. No transliteration (anchors match the rendered heading text).

FAQ

What about Cyrillic / Chinese / Arabic input?

Cyrillic and Greek transliterate by built-in rules. Chinese / Japanese / Arabic don't have a standard romanization — turn off transliteration and the tool will strip them, leaving you with hyphens between numeric / Latin segments. Add a manual romanization step for those languages.

Why does my slug get cut off at a weird place?

The max-length trim is smart-boundary — it backs off to the previous separator if the cut would happen mid-word. Increase the max if the slug still gets too short.

Does WordPress preset match WordPress exactly?

It matches the default behaviour. Some plugins (like Yoast SEO) change the rules — verify against your site if migrating large numbers of slugs.

Can I export the title→slug table?

Yes — copy the tab-separated output and paste into a spreadsheet, or save the textarea content to a .tsv file.
