Frequently Asked Questions

What characters are removed?
Accents are normalized to their base letters, and all non-alphanumeric characters (punctuation, symbols, spaces) become the separator.
Should I use hyphens or underscores in URLs?
Search engines generally recommend hyphens: words stay separate and readable, and underscore-separated slugs can be read as one word by some engines.
