      We currently have this configured on a field that looks at itself as a quick way to check if something has already been entered into our request form. Is it possible to configure this field to not show duplicates in this scenario?

      Hi,
      Good idea, I have posted an updated version with support for filtering the choices and only return unique values.

      You find documentation in the top of this page

      Let me know how this works out.

        Is there a way to disable the invalid value response? We want to provide the convenience of type ahead to see if data has already been entered, but give them the opportunity to add new values to the list at the same time. Users love that autocomplete!

      Hi,
      I’m posting the answer I emailed to you so others can see the response.

      Sorry, but this plugin doesn’t currently support adding new values. It could be added as an option, but I’m a bit busy sorting out the latest bugs and changes to the new version of DFFS and vLookup.

      I’ll put a sticky note on my desk and see if I can add this later.

      See v1.4 for the add new feature: https://spjsblog.com/2014/03/29/autocomplete-for-text-and-people-picker-fields/
