 * Hi,
 * Im not sure if this plugin does not support special characters but when I add
   the extension:
 *  /?coupon-code=springsem2014
 * To a page, when I update the page it renders it:
 * /%3Fcoupon-code%3Dspringsem2014
 * Which unfortunately does not work, the reason I need it to render the first way
   is it auto applies a coupon.
 * Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
 * Thanks!
