Chrome possible bug when setting URL

Questions & Suggestions
1

It seems that when I set a URL in Chrome if the URL has text in the following format:

%anytext%

it’s replaced with

[

which of course breaks the URL. Is there something I need to disable to get this working? Thanks

Text fields in Keyboard Maestro are typically processed for text tokens (see this topic).

%anytext% will be replaced with the value of the variable named anytext or with the value of the text token if the anytext happens to match a text token.

Double the percentage characters to quote them. Eg %%anytext%%.

Ok, that’s interesting. So you can add variables in URLs if you’d like to. Cool, thank you very much! I was able to get the URLs working with your advice

Yes. Be careful adding variables that they are properly URL encoded - use the Filter Variable: Percent Encode for URLs action if needed.
