3 years ago A feature request in Netlify CMS's repo may provide functionality to implement this by enabling the use of placeholders in a widget's default field. See https://github.com/netlify/netlify-cms/issues/1975

This issue separates concerns in issue #465 and covers the URI generation.
In Netlify CMS, the URI field requires input from the user. It would be a better UX if this field was automatically populated with a value.
We will likely need a custom widget to do this (see https://www.netlifycms.org/docs/custom-widgets/). The URI field should still be editable. When the URI field is empty, the field should be filled with the rule's title separated by dashes and without punctuation. E.g. a title of 'Do you use great email signatures?' creates a URI of 'do-you-use-great-email-signatures'.
