### Improvement

Previously the Exposure story editor would auto-generate a URL(or slug) based on the title of your story. For example, if a title was “Best coffee shops in Atlanta” the URL would be `/best-coffee-shops-in-atlanta` once the story was published.

We got lots of feedback from our storytellers that you would like to set the URL before you publish as sometimes an auto-generated URL is not quite right. So starting today you can do just that! While drafting a story you can head to your Options to set the URL.

You can still change the URL after publishing as before. Enjoy!
