It looks like a small variation on post_exists() should work. Create a function like this in your child theme's functions.php, and then use it instead of post_exists():



function post_exists_by_content($content) {
global $wpdb;

$post_content = wp_unslash( sanitize_post_field( 'post_content', $content, 0, 'db' ) );

$query = "SELECT ID FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE 1=1";
$args = array();

if ( !empty ( $content ) ) {
$query .= ' AND post_content = %s';
$args = $post_content;
}

if ( !empty ( $args ) )
return (int) $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare($query, $args) );

return 0;
}
