<p>Hi there, I was hoping for some quick assistance related to making sure an alias does not get created where one already exists. I am using the migrate module to bring in content and everything works perfectly including the aliases. The problem is during my post import process where I am trying to crawl the generated table that migrate module provides in order to create translation sets. (every two rows has an english and french node)</p>
<pre>public function postImport(){<br> //Fix Translation ID<br> $result = db_query("SELECT destid1 FROM {migrate_map_html_intranet}");<br> $currentRowCount = 0;<br> $current_translateid = 0;<br> foreach ($result as $record) {<br> if ($currentRowCount % 2 == 0)<br> {<br> $node = node_load($record->destid1);<br> $node->path['pathauto'] = FALSE;<br> //$node->pathauto_perform_alias = FALSE;<br> $node->tnid = $record->destid1;<br> $current_translateid = $record->destid1;<br> node_save($node);<br> }<br> else {<br> $node = node_load($record->destid1);<br> $node->path['pathauto'] = FALSE;<br> //$node->pathauto_perform_alias = FALSE;<br> $node->tnid = $current_translateid;<br> node_save($node);<br> } <br> $currentRowCount++;<br> }<br> }</pre><p>
The problem is after this code gets run new aliases get generated and I don't understand why this is as I thought pathauto persistant state would block this from occurring.</p>
