Overview

Stores slugs used to prettify URLs. For more information, see the Slugalicious mixin.

As new slugs are created, old ones are marked as inactive and kept around for redirect purposes. Once a slug is old enough, it is deleted and its value can be used for new records (no longer redirects).

Associations

Slugs must be unique to their `sluggable_type` and `scope`. | | `active` | Whether this is the most recently generated slug for the sluggable. | | `scope` | Freeform data scoping this slug to a certain subset of records within the model. |
