Friendly_id with two parameters?

Question

I wonder if there is an easy way to use friendly_id and have two parameters instead of one, for example?

www.example.com/dateTitle/

date and name are two separate fields in my db.

Answer 1

I know this question was made 2 years ago, but if it can help future readers, friendlyId gem now combines the "candidate" functionality, which can help with this.

class Post < ActiveRecord::Base extend FriendlyId friendly_id :slug_candidates, use: :slugged def slug_candidates [ [:created_at, :Title], ] end end 

More info at gem repo .

Answer 2

Of course have!

Just define a model method that formats the string before it runs.
