After upgrading from 7.x_3.8 to 7.x_4.0 my redirect URLs stopped working. It seems all special characters are being replaced with ascii hex codes so, the redirect url:
engaged/48/national-petition-2?cid1=[submission:values:civicrm_1_contact_1_contact_contact_id:nolabel]&cs=[submission:values:civicrm_1_contact_1_contact_cs:nolabel]
generates the url:
engaged/48/national-petition-2%3Fcid1%3D619%26cs%3Da99b051ec802ed0178a2bcbf805de629_1353863350_168

This is happening on both my local dev environment and on the live site.

Hi Folks,
Is this not an issue that others are having and is just specific to my installation? Can someone using 7.x-4.0-alpha6 try a redirect after submission that includes a question mark or an ampersand and confirm for me that it is working correctly?
Thanks

Hi I'm having the same problem as I need to redirect to a page with format=format.

Any ideas or thoughts very much appreciated.

Hi danielstrum, just thought I'd let you know that I've rolled back my webform version and now special characters are working fine with redirect.

Cheers

Hi particlegirl,
Thanks for the note. Yes, I knew I could rollback because this started when I upgraded. I am working around the issue using Rules which I was planning on using on one of the forms anyway. Maintainers... Are you going to reply to this issue? I love webforms and use them on many sites but often need to forward from the form to a URL with additional parameters.
Best, ds

I am hvaing this issue with the latest Webform. Cannot use ?destination= or anything with special characters in the redirect url.

This is the same as #2032793: When adding a query string to redirect url, the ? and = are converted and url is borken, I'm marking this one as the duplicate as the other issue is marginally cleaner, better written and already has one duplicate against it.
