# Ampersand shows as & in Internal Search

If a property title contains an ampersand (&), the Internal Search widget shows it as &amp;.

**Why this happens.** This is a display issue in the Internal Search module. It is fixed in HomeRunner Toolkit version 3.112.1.

**What to do.** Update the HomeRunner Toolkit plugin to version 3.112.1 or later from **Dashboard → Updates** (or **Plugins → Update**). After the update, titles with special characters (&, apostrophes, quotes) display correctly and match searches typed with those characters. You do not need to change any settings or re-save your properties.

Still stuck? [Contact the HomeRunner team](https://homerunner.io/contact/) with your site address and what you tried, and we take it from there.
