Hi here is my yaml rule file,

```auto
http:
  routers:
    1c-rtr:
      rule: "Host(`{{env "DOMAINNAME_CLOUD_SERVER"}}`)"
      entryPoints:
          - https
# middlewares:
# - chain-no-auth
      service: 1c-svc
      tls:
        certResolver: dns-cloudflare
# middlewares:
# pihole-rpi-add-admin:
# addPrefix:
# prefix: "/admin"
  services:
    1c-svc:
      loadBalancer:
        servers:
          - url: "http://172.18.30.12:80"

```

I need to add EncodeQuerySemicolons option there, but when I edit it like

```auto
http:
  routers:
    1c-rtr:
      rule: "Host(`{{env "DOMAINNAME_CLOUD_SERVER"}}`)"
      entryPoints:
        -web:
          address: ":80"
          http:
            encodeQuerySemicolons: true
            redirections:
              entryPoint:
                to: websecure
                scheme: https
        websecure:
          address: ":443"
          http:
             encodeQuerySemicolons: true
# middlewares:
# - chain-no-auth
      service: 1c-svc
      tls:
        certResolver: dns-cloudflare
# middlewares:
# pihole-rpi-add-admin:
# addPrefix:
# prefix: "/admin"
  services:
    1c-svc:
      loadBalancer:
        servers:
          - url: "http://172.18.30.12:80"

```

Nothing happends at all, I get same result as before editing

According to [doc](https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/routing/entrypoints/#encodequerysemicolons):

```auto
entryPoints:
  websecure:
    address: ':443'
    http:
      encodeQuerySemicolons: true

```

Do you use a current Traefik version?

--entrypoints.websecure.http.encodequerysemicolons=true

```

Strange, it seems to be a valid parameter according to [Traefik static CLI reference](https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/reference/static-configuration/cli/).

You need to check on the desktop site if it’s really compatible with your current version (left bottom), I think the "default" doc might be v3.

Did you try adding only `websecure` with port?
