Custom Code Fields

In this .cms web developer course lesson, we focus on custom code fields for dynamic content. We create a URL title field for cast and crew entries, automatically generating clean, URL-friendly slugs. The custom field reads first and last names, suggests slugs, and autofills if needed. Editors have control to apply suggested changes. The code efficiently parses pre-made scripts for automation. This smart automation balances automation and editor control. The sluggify function converts text to URL-friendly values. The custom field enhances user experience by simplifying URL management for content contributors.
