I'm importing data from an external system into ProcessWire. Each of the imported records have a unique ID. How might I use the unique ID to prevent duplicate records in ProcessWire? What I want: When importing data find the foreign record ID use it to check for duplicates if a duplicate record is detected, skip it import data into ProcessWire by creating a page in /import/ continue to next record ProcessWire: Later I'll move each page to another location ... meaning that '/import/' will be empty the next time, I run an import job Looking into possible solutions: Unfortunately, ProcessWire Unique Text Fieldtype doesn't do the trick. (ProcessWire Unique Text Fieldtype will allow the page to be created - only the field with a duplicated field value will be blank. In my case, the duplicate record needs to be blocked / *not* created.) Could it be solved by modifying the code for ProcessWire Unique Text Fieldtype?
