Bug ID: 453811
Summary: Ability to define search engine search URL with no
sanitization of queries
Product: krunner
Version: 5.24.5
Platform: Other
OS: Other
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: webshortcuts
Assignee: alexander.loh...@gmx.de
Reporter: kishor...@gmail.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
Currently, it looks like the runner does some sanitization of the query string
before substituting it into the URL that the user has configured for a
particular search engine (e.g. it converts / to %2F). This happens with both
the \{0} and \{@} placeholders.
Would it be possible to have another kind of placeholder that inserts the
literal query without such sanitization? The sanitization breaks some search
engines (e.g. one would like to search on some academic search engines using a
DOI which usually contains slashes, such as '10.1017/jfm.2020.598')
