Stratum+tcp to stratum+ssl tricky input

Goldshells’ & iPollos’ mining software, and most others I’ve worked with, their mining configuration is automated by inputting the pools’ server address as stratum+tcp. When adding an other URL, such as, stratum+ssl, the software automatically adds stratum+tcp in front of the address. For example, you add stratum+ssl://example.io it comes out something like stratum+tcp://stratum+ssl.example.io

Any one know the easy solution? Typically, the ssl URLs seem to have better connectivity in my pool.

Thanks for your time & support,
