  $nids = (isset($nid) ? array($nid) : array());
  $conditions = (isset($vid) ? array('vid' => $vid) : array());

node load from a title

Posted by liquidcms on October 3, 2011 at 4:58pm

in D6:

$node = node_load(array('title' => $text, 'type' => 'mytype'));
echo $node->body;

in D7 (i think):

$query = new EntityFieldQuery;
$result = $query
  ->entityCondition('entity_type', 'node')
  ->propertyCondition('type', 'mytype')
  ->propertyCondition('title', $text)
  ->execute();

if (!empty($result['node'])) {
  $nodes = node_load_multiple(array_keys($result['node']));
  echo current($nodes)->body['und'][0]['safe_value'];
}

uggghhh!!

I concur

@liquidcms, I agree with your uggghhh!! to the point of writing a module to supply the functionality. One day, when Git has a decent user interface, I will load the code into drupal.org.

Node load

Or you can try entity_load :
$items = entity_load('node', FALSE, array('type' => 'mytype', 'title' => $text));
