  • eloquent-sluggable

    Easy creation of slugs for your Eloquent models in Laravel

  • You could use something like eloquent-sluggable to generate unique slugs for your posts. Thy way you wouldn't need to expose your ids. Depending on the use case the id could be considered a secret. If you expose it in the url, someone could enumerate the parameter, and potentially expose things you don't want exposed
