Hello Thank you for your response..
I don't understand what "PR" means, but I think your purpose was "property". However, my idea is to enable adding a property, such that special characters will not be replaced after configuration. I believe many others like me would like to have the flexibility to create optional messages. I try to change code in github and add this option "jsonMessage", such that if it was true, the special characters will not be replaced in message.
