从文本创建文章别名的 SQL 查询

Question

I have a CMS system that I have imported some articles into directly via the mySQL database. This works just fine. However, the article aliases were not created in the database, I would have to create those myself.

Can someone provide an example of a query that would take an article title string and convert it to a common alias format? I assume the query would look something like

UPDATE tblArticles SET ArticleAlias=XYZ(ArticleTitle)

It's the XYZ part above that I need help with to take an article title like "Is a kitchen remodel in your future?" to "kitchen-remodel-your-future'

Answer 1

You're probably looking for REPLACE

UPDATE tblArticles 
  SET ArticleAlias=REPLACE(ArticleTitle,' ','-');
