Hi Federica and Dario, first of all thank you so much for sharing such piece of art of component. It has been of great help.
We are a University and have a library, we use your component tu publish on our site the catalog of books available on the library (physical), so the students can check the books available and even request a loan, so your component has been great to solve all the requirements from our board od directors.
I have only one (two) quiestion. How can i prevent an author or a editor be duplicated. Because due to the heavy charge of work that demands the insertions of the catalog in your componente i have divided the work between 6 persons of my team. Bue we realiced that if there is some author or editor created, we create a new one with the same name it is duplicated, instead of reporting that the author or edithor already exist.
So my question is, how can i prevent it to happen.
Thanks again for your excelent component, for your hard and continious work and for your great patience with all the begginers (me) of this forum
Hi fugamx,
I can not to prevent the inserction of two identical author names because there may be two authors with the same name, an homonymy case.
When you insert an author you have to check in advance if the author already exists.
Hi Federica,
Thank you very much for your asnwer, i understand your point its very clear. I will do so.
