get_post_by_slug ( $slug, $post_type )

[Scott Kingsley Clark]

Anyone believe a function like this may find it's way into WP, or is
anyone familiar with an existing function that accomplishes the same
thing? If not, I'll put together a trac ticket with an example of how
this function would work and get the discussion going.

There's get_page_by_path() but I'm honestly not sure if it works with
non-hierarchical post types. Give it a try. Beware though that this
function isn't very well optimised and it'll perform an SQL query with
each call, so if you use it lots then keep an eye on your total SQL
queries.

You know what, get_page_by_path ( $path, $output, $post_type ) does
it, didn't notice it had changed ;)

Thx anyways.
