## Description
This PR fixes an issue with slug validation in the Help Center portal
settings. Previously, users were able to create or update slugs with
invalid characters such as spaces, slashes, and special symbols, which
cause help center to crash.
With this update, slug creation and updates are now properly validated.
Only slugs that match the allowed pattern will be accepted. No spaces,
underscores, slashes, or special characters are allowed.
Examples: **user**, **user-guide**
