Description

Hello,

back in 2015 someone pointed out that a url_decode filter was needed https://github.com/Shopify/liquid/pull/645

It is also part of the Shopify liquid documentation : https://shopify.github.io/liquid/filters/url_decode/

But it seems this filter is not working or has been deprecated since. Is there any alternative filters that could achieve this ?

Thanks !
