pre_wp_unique_post_slug filter-hook . WP 5.1.0

Filters the post slug before it is generated to be unique.

Returning a non-null value will short-circuit the unique slug generation, returning the passed value instead.

function filter_function_name_2857( $override_slug, $slug, $post_ID, $post_status, $post_type, $post_parent ){
	// filter...

	return $override_slug;
}
