Hi Nicole, sorry for being late to the party.

I’m not sure if you have resolved your issue or not yet.

Have you tried using the PHP function html_entity_decode on the title before passing it into the get_page_by_title function?

Something like this:

$decoded_title = html_entity_decode( $post_title );
$post = get_page_by_title( $decoded_title, OBJECT, 'post' );
