 * Hi.
 * I added some filters via an html form, so the data gets filtered by url parameters.
   
   Works fine, as long the filter value does not include any url encoded characters
 * Example:
    wpda_search_column_SLOT=D%2FST does not work – no data is shown (trying
   to filter for D/ST) wpda_search_column_SLOT=RB – filter value does not contain
   url encoded chars – works fine
 * There is one exeption:
    wpda_search_column_SLOT=%25 works as expected and shows
   all data – maybe beacause % is the first character und 25 is not interpreted?!
 * I have the feeling, as if the wpdataaccess plugin does not interpret the encoded
   url.
 * Any suggestions on how to solve that problem?
    Thanks!

 * Hi [@presgomacho](https://wordpress.org/support/users/presgomacho/),
 * Thanks for reporting! It was working correctly in Data Projects but not in publications.
   I fixed it. I will be available in the next release, which I hope to upload the
   end of this week.
 * Thanks,
    Peter
