Add Slugs to Content Channels

Add Slugs to Content Channels

CMS

I'm currently working on building our website in Rock, and I keep running into the same issue. If I have more than one content channel of the same type, I have to either get real hack-y or I have to build completely separate sets of pages for each channel.

For example, if I had two podcasts, I'd like to just build a single list page that lists posts for one of the channels based on a URL slug. So if the route was something like podcasts/{ChannelSlug}, then either podcasts/sermons or podcasts/kids would both go to the same page in Rock and only the posts for the specified ChannelSlug would be shown.

My current solution is to create a channel for all podcasts, and then child channels for all posts, but that has gotten real cumbersome real quick.
