JavaScript Slug Generator
// Generates a URL-friendly "slug" from a provided string.
// For example: "This Is Great!!!" transforms into "this-is-great"
function generateSlug (value) {
// 1) convert to lowercase
// 2) remove dashes and pluses
// 3) replace spaces with dashes
// 4) remove everything but alphanumeric characters and dashes
return value.toLowerCase().replace(/-+/g, '').replace(/\s+/g, '-').replace(/[^a-z0-9-]/g, '');
