Comment (by andrewbadr):
Here's a more efficient version of `slugify_max`, if anyone comes looking.
{{{
def slugify_max(text, max_length=50):
slug = slugify(text)
if len(slug) <= max_length:
return slug
trimmed_slug = slug[:max_length].rsplit('-', 1)[0]
if len(trimmed_slug) <= max_length:
return trimmed_slug
# First word is > max_length chars, so we have to break it
return slug[:max_length]
}}}
