Encoding of URL going wrong.

[Macro-Jackson]

We have beautiful URL's. Yes there is some discussion about it if special characters should be allowed but IMHO they look way nicer and you are still being able to be found in Google.
For example: Västerås (a city in Sweden)
URL from Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Västerås

Now an example of our URL: https://comphare.nl/Fjällräven-Re-Kånken-Slate-rugtas-tb6x.html

It does not present this way in the interface. It presents encoded like: /Fj%C3%A4llr%C3%A4ven-Re-K%C3%A5nken-Slate-rugtas-tb6x.html

Would be nice if it presents the real URL.

Thanks for your bug report, I agree it should look nice. Looks like we need decodeURIComponent somewhere:

decodeURIComponent('/Fj%C3%A4llr%C3%A4ven-Re-K%C3%A5nken-Slate-rugtas-tb6x.html')
// "/Fjällräven-Re-Kånken-Slate-rugtas-tb6x.html"

I wonder if we need the public script for this or if we need to do this in our main app. Will keep you posted on the progress.

It seems the browser does this:

location.pathname
// "/Fj%C3%A4llr%C3%A4ven-Re-K%C3%A5nken-Slate-rugtas-tb6x.html"

Hi @Macro-Jackson! I came across this older issue and I'm wondering now if I mistakenly forgot to mark this one as resolved, as I could swear I looked into this specific issue. Could you do me a favor and let me know if you still experience this issue?

Thanks so much!

I think we solved this in the public script as well:
