The Ajax Duplicate Alert add-on checks several different fields of new listings in real-time against those already in the database. If it finds a match, it will warn the user that they are about to add a duplicate and save the day.
This is EXACTLY the same product as distributed by the developer. Sales Page
Real-time Detection: Uses AJAX to check the database as the user types, providing instant feedback without a page refresh.
Multi-Field Validation: It doesn’t just check titles. You can enable or disable duplicate checking for the following fields:
Post Title
Address
Zip/Post Code
Phone Number
Email Address
Customizable Alerts: Every field can have its own unique error message, or you can use a global fallback message.
Custom Post Type (CPT) Support: If you use the GeoDirectory CPT add-on, you can set different duplicate rules and messages for each specific post type (e.g., different rules for “Restaurants” vs. “Events”).

AJAX Call: The plugin queries the database for existing listings with that exact or similar title.
