Title to System Name Plug-in
This plug-in ensures that newly-created assets are given search engine friendly system names.After the user submits edit in the original asset creation screen, the plug-in checks the new asset’s system name. If the user has not specified a system name for the new asset, it will by default be based off a substring of the original asset used by the asset factory (i.e. if original asset is named "page", then new asset is named "page1"). This plug-in then takes the value from the metadata title name, makes it search engine friendly, and turns that into the system name for the new asset. Making the name search engine friendly involves removing extraneous characters (only allowed system name characters are A-Z, a-z, 0-9, hyphen, period) and converting spaces to hyphens.
To activate this plug-in:
- In the Administration area select Asset Factories.
- Select a current asset factory, or create a new one by selecting “New Asset Factory”.
- On the “Plugins” tab, select "Title to System Name Plugin” from the “Add Plugin” drop down. Click the green plus sign to add the plug-in.
- This plug-in takes no parameters.
