How to Use URL / Slug to Text

  1. Paste a URL like https://chunkymunster.com/tools/add-line-prefix-suffix.html or just a slug like add-line-prefix-suffix.
  2. Pick an output case — Title Case is the default and works best for headings and breadcrumbs.
  3. The readable text appears instantly. No submit button required.
  4. Click Copy to send the result to your clipboard.

Convert URLs and slugs back into human-friendly text. Completely free and browser-only: nothing you paste is uploaded or logged.

How URL / Slug to Text Works

The tool first decodes any URL-encoded characters (%20, %2F, etc.), then strips the protocol, domain, query string, and hash. By default it keeps only the last path segment, removes the file extension, and converts hyphens, underscores, and dots into spaces. The cleaned words are then re-cased according to your selection.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this tool do?

It reverses a URL or slug back into plain readable text. For example, https://chunkymunster.com/tools/add-line-prefix-suffix.html becomes add line prefix suffix. Hyphens, underscores, and dots become spaces; the protocol, domain, query string, hash, and file extension are stripped automatically.

What input does it accept?

A full URL, a path fragment, or just a slug like my-blog-post-title. URL-encoded characters (%20, %2F, etc.) are decoded automatically.

Does it support different output cases?

Yes — choose lowercase, Sentence case, Title Case, or UPPERCASE. Useful for turning slugs into headings, page titles, or breadcrumb labels.

Is anything sent to a server?

No. All conversion runs entirely in your browser. The URL or slug you paste never leaves your device.
