Convert / to %2F in lookup engine

l0o0

The slash / in item's DOI or URL field will convert to %2F when searching by lookup engine. This will direct to the wrong query url.
This a example engine code for Sci-Hub

{
"_name": "Sci-Hub DOI",
"_alias": "Sci-Hub DOI",
"_description": "SciHub Lookup Lookup",
"_icon": "http://sci-hub.se/favicon.ico",
"_hidden": false,
"_urlTemplate": "http://sci-hub.se/{z:url}",
"_urlParams": [],
"_urlNamespaces": {
"z": "http://www.zotero.org/namespaces/openSearch#"
},
"_iconSourceURI": "http://sci-hub.se/favicon.ico"
}

I hope someone could tell me how to keep the slash in the query url.

One workaround is to use LibGen's scientific article search, which supports search via GET (i.e. by creating a URLs) and includes the sci-hub content:
{
"_name": "LibGen article using DOI",
"_alias": "LibGen",
"_description": "Look up scientific article on LibGen using DOI",
"_icon": "http://libgen.rs/favicon.ico",
"_hidden": false,
"_urlTemplate": "http://libgen.rs/scimag/?q={z:DOI}",
"_urlParams": [],
"_method": "GET",
"_urlNamespaces": {
"z": "http://www.zotero.org/namespaces/openSearch#"
},
"_iconSourceURI": "http://libgen.rs/favicon.ico"
},
