[Vtigercrm-developers] make a field unique

[lucia digirolamo]

I've managed to do it by copying the edit.js and detail.js from Account 
and adding the checkDuplicate function in Record.php and actions folder 
of Project module.
However when I try to add an already existing project, the message in 
the popup still says 'Organizations' instead of 'project' and if I try 
to change the code I've copied (substituting 'account' with 'project'), 
then it doesn't work anymore.

What am I missing?
