How to Create a URL Slug from a Product Name

2026-06-20
Task

A table has a product name, and the site needs a slug column: Latin text, hyphens instead of spaces, and no extra symbols.

Short answer

Create slug from name and apply the Transliteration transformation.

How to Do It in Eofferix

  1. Create the slug column from name and open the slug settings.

    The animation shows the settings icon under the slug column.
  2. In Transformations, add Transliteration.
    Transliteration rule for a URL slug
    For a basic URL slug, separate regex rules are not needed: Transliteration prepares the value from the product name.
  3. Save the settings and export the result.

What matters for the result

  • Make sure slug is built from the source name if important words must remain in the URL.
  • After transliteration, test products with digits and symbols such as %, /, +; they often produce unexpected URLs.
  • If the website needs unique slugs, append SKU or product ID with a separate concatenation rule.
