Appreciate the feedback. I switched it to use the built in Slug very simply and it now automatically handles duplicates (it just appends -1) at the end if there is a dupe.
One more question, in my app, I only want to allow searching for providers. I do not want to anybody to be able to find other users via the search. What’s the best way to accomplish that without breaking anything? I was thinking of removing the Option-Profile-Type radio option and removing the key parameter from the url. Would there be anything else I need to remove or change?
Thanks in advance!
