cleanurl: true
Trailing Slashes
When using clean urls a route will be added with the forms
http://yoursite.com/2012/10/21/my-blog-post
http://yoursite.com/2012/10/21/my-blog-post/
If you wish to have links to the post use a trailing slash pass true to the trailingSlashes configuration property

If you wish to format the date portion of the generated URL differently, you can tell the plugin which date format to use with moment explicitly:
