Answer 1

Twig doesn't come with a url_decode filter to match its url_encode one, so you'll need to write it.

in src/Your/Bundle/Twig/Extension/YourExtension.php

<?php

namespace Your\Bundle\Twig\Extension;

class YourExtension extends \Twig_Extension
{
    /**
     * {@inheritdoc}
     */
    public function getFilters()
    {
        return array(
            'url_decode' => new \Twig_Filter_Method($this, 'urlDecode')
        );
    }

    /**
     * URL Decode a string
     *
     * @param string $url
     *
     * @return string The decoded URL
     */
    public function urlDecode($url)
    {
        return urldecode($url);
    }

    /**
     * Returns the name of the extension.
     *
     * @return string The extension name
     */
    public function getName()
    {
        return 'your_extension';
    }
}

And then add it to your services configuration in app/config/config.yml

services:
    your.twig.extension:
        class: Your\Bundle\Twig\Extension\YourExtension
        tags:
            -  { name: twig.extension }

And then use it!

<input id="deleteUrl" value="{{ path('profile_delete', {id: '$'})|url_decode }}"/>

Answer 2

If you're using:

'url_decode' => new \Twig_Function_Method($this, 'urlDecode') 

and receive an error:

Error: addFilter() must implement interface Twig_FilterInterface, instance of Twig_Function_Method given 

replace:

new \Twig_Function_Method($this, 'urlDecode')" 

with:

new \Twig_Filter_Method($this, 'urlDecode')"
