Solved – Display Product Title With Special Characters in Magento 2 Mini Cart
Magento 2 mini cart displays the product title when the user adds the product to the cart. However, sometimes the product titles with special characters like ä show “& auml;” in the frontend.
For example, the product CSV file uploaded in the Magento 2 store has product names like Dress™. In the frontend mini cart, it displays as &Dress;
The expected result is to display the correct product title after converting the HTML equivalent to the characters. But the actual results differ.
To avoid that, follow the below solution to display product title with special characters in Magento 2 mini cart correctly:
Method to display product title with special characters in Magento 2 mini cart:
