SEO Slugs strips out hyphens (2 posts)

    I’ve just started using SEO Slugs and noticed the following after it did its thing on a new post slug:

    - It stripped out the hyphen in director-general, thereby forming the nonsense word directorgeneral. If DG had been written without the hyphen, it would presumably have inserted one!
    - It stripped out the apostrophe in UNESCO’s, forming the word unescos.

    I guess the lesson is to not rely totally on the plugin; rather edit the slug manually afterwards to fix any such anomalies.

    Even better - don't rely on plugins for SEO at all. All software is ultimately stupid. Implement good SEO as part of your overall blog design and posting protocols.
