Description

The stringToSlug uses a third-party library called speakingURL that removes special characters and converts the string to lowercase. The StringToSlug replaces spaces with space characters(separators) and offers the option to add a prefix and/or a suffix for your slug.

In order to transform a string into a url-friendly permalink, use the plugin to display a preview in a html element or in an input form.
