Prevent 'Updated-At' From Updating on CSV Import

By default, whenever a CSV file is imported and form entries are updated, the "updated-at" timestamp is updated as well. The example below can be used to prevent the "updated-at" timestamp from being updated.

add_filter('frm_update_entry', 'frm_updated_at');
function frm_updated_at( $new_values ){
  if ( defined( 'WP_IMPORTING' ) && WP_IMPORTING ) {
    unset( $new_values['updated_at'] );
  }
  return $new_values;
}
