Wordpress - how to get page id of a page using page slug
Use get_page_by_path($page_path)
:
$page = get_page_by_path( 'about' );
echo get_the_title( $page );
This will return a regular post object.

I've been using this ..
function get_id_by_slug($page_slug) {
$page = get_page_by_path($page_slug);
if ($page) {
return $page->ID;
} else {
return null;
}
}
Hope this will help someone.
It has been already asked and answered on this forum. I am pasting the same code from there. Use this function to retrieve page id.
function get_page_by_slug($page_slug, $output = OBJECT, $post_type = 'page' ) {
global $wpdb;
$page = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare( "SELECT ID FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_name = %s AND post_type= %s AND post_status = 'publish'", $page_slug, $post_type ) );
if ( $page )
return get_post($page, $output);
return null;
}
