The slug

Last updated: July 19, 2026

The slug is the address of a page — the part that comes after your domain. In yourwebsite.com/about-us the slug is /about-us.

The rules

  • It always starts with a slash: /
  • Only lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens.
  • It must be unique — two pages cannot share the same slug.

A good slug

Keep it short, describe the page, and separate words with hyphens.

  • /about-us
  • /blog/2025-06-summer-news
  • /About_Us — no capital letters, no underscores.
  • /page1 — says nothing about the page.

Group related pages under one path — for example all blog posts under /blog/.... They then share one tab in the pages overview.

Choose carefully — the slug cannot be changed

Once the page is created, the slug is fixed. The address gets shared, linked, and saved by search engines — if it changed, all those links would stop working. So take a moment before you create the page.

One slug for all languages

A page has the same slug in every language.
