‘&’ in a term name

[Nigel Price]

Hi

if there is a ‘&’ in a term name in a term store what are the repercussions of this ?

i have read that searching for these terms does not work as the character is stored in utf66 format.

The ‘&’ is there at the request of the branding police !

is there a way of using ‘&’ in a term store in a way that users can search for that term ?

Regards

Nigel

Thanks @Deleted - I found this blog.

Unfortunately, however, it does not seem to offer a no-code solution.
