Pulling parameters from Wordpress url that contain %20 spaces

eg. Aweber "thank you" URL looks like this;

I am having trouble with the %20 space....eg to output: custom country = GB

I have tried several plugins...

https://wordpress.org/plugins/url-params/
Works great on parameters without %20 ....but fails if %20 is in url

I want to pull out the url parameters & input them to hidden fields in another form.

Can anyone advise?

Thanks in advance

  • After grabbing the URL, you can use PHP str_replace() function to replace %20 with anything else and then, with the clean URL, do what you need to do further.
  • Cheers @Zenoth - would you like a job?!

    I can't do this myself so I'm looking for someone to make a modification the plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/url-params/) so it works if %20 is in url....or can provide another simple solution that outputs the parameters using a wordpress shortcode (or something I can paste as a Value into a Form field.

    Let me know & send me your price - would need to be done by tomorrow.

  • I got this sorted now - many thanks
  • I would go for urldecode functions built in in PHP. This will give you guarantee that you are handling strings in the most efficient and safe way
