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?

Dear PW Community Let me shout out my question here, I really don't know where to start and hope someone can give me a hint or tell me to resign and go home and cry. I want to create a subpage that is only accessible to people with unique access codes. It's gonna be an online concert streaming page (thanks Corona!). People who buy tickets through a local ticketing service should be able to access and stream the show with their individual access code. These codes should work only for this person and show. If someone in the «audience» closes and reopens the page, they should get in again, but not their friends who were given the code of course, basically just like in a club with a ticket and a stamp on the wrist. Now, is there a possibility to achieve that with more or less basic Processwire skills? In my imagination I have a field where I list the given access codes, another two to add start and ending date/time of the show, maybe one for a unique ID/title of the show. Is there an existing module for something like that? Should I get into the module development field and create that? How?? Haha. Any comments are welcome here. Thanks, Nuél

Hi, I have the need to set a field to unique as described here (point 2.) It is a integer input within a repeater. I have set that field to match a minimum and maximum value and also input is required! When trying to save the page with an already used value the page doesn't save that field and do not output any error or warning. It silently lost the data, even with debugging enabled in config.php. What can I do to avoid this?
