Description
### Custom Node Testing
- [x] I have tried disabling custom nodes and the issue persists (see [how to disable custom nodes](https://docs.comfy.org/troubleshooting/custom-node-issues#step-1%3A-test-with-all-custom-nodes-disabled) if you need help)
### Expected Behavior
**[Save File Formatting](https://blenderneko.github.io/ComfyUI-docs/Interface/SaveFileFormatting/)** is wonderful when using something like `WAN/%date:yyyy-MM-dd%_%date:hhmmss%_` in the filename field for nodes like Save Image, etc.
However, if the same value is input in a "String" node and fed in to that field, it fails to apply the formatting and results in bad file error (tried to write file including `%` in it)
**EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:**
1. Put a value like ``WAN/%date:yyyy-MM-dd%_%date:hhmmss%_` into a "String" node.
2. Pass that into a `filename` field, such as in "Save Image" node
3. Dynamically updates the filename
### Actual Behavior
fails to apply the formatting and results in bad file error (tried to write file including `%` in it)
### Steps to Reproduce
Do what I wrote above
