Stackoverflow Style URL's with Friendly_ID

I was able to setup friendly_id with one of my models (categories), but I need help with setting up with another model.

Basically I want the URL's to be something like this: domain.com/129121/title-of-post where 129121 is the ID of the post.

I tried doing this by updating the to_param but it did not work (https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq/issues/7265).

Im not sure how to get SO style links working. Any help would be appreciated!

I tried something similar and come up with

 def slug
  name.downcase.gsub(" ", "-")  # you can change name to the attribute that holds your title
 end

 def to_param
  "#{self.id}-#{slug}"
end

Might get you on your way
