User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0 Build ID: 20170613225334 Steps to reproduce: Load the attached WebExtension. Type in, e.g., 'wiki foobar' and hit enter. Actual results: You will go to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/{searchTerms} Expected results: You would have gone to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foobar The substitution works if the parameter is in a query string (e.g., if the search_url field was "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Search?search={searchTerms}").
