Date Slugs on Blog Posts for Nesta CMS

This plugin will add the post date to the URL for your blogs posts in Nesta. Right now the date format is hard-coded in the year/month/permalink format, but plans are already in place to allow customizations to the format. An example of a link would be "2012/07/sample-post". Users migrating from other blogging tools are probably familiar with this format already.

Add the following line to your Gemfile:

gem 'nesta-plugin-dateslugs'

The plugin will automatically update the permalinks for all blog posts. Blog posts are defined as pages that have a Post Date in their metadata. In order for the plugin to work correctly you must ensure your theme uses the article permalink method and not the abspath method.

• Allow date format to be customized.
• Improve matching of dates in paths.

• Fork this project.
• Create a feature or hotfix branch.
• Make changes.
• Commit changes without modifying the rakefile, version, or changelog. (I will update those as needed.)
• Submit a pull request.

Special thanks to Wynn Netherland, most of this plugin is based on his nesta-plugin-sluggable plugin.
