Unique ID

@klenshop

I have changed the code for #year# and now replacing these characters within the prefix.

So how do I implement that to have the year at the end of the ID say ‘-24’ @missveronicatv

@klenshop

No, you can include #year# in your prefix like this
GAND-SM-#year# or GAND-#year#-SM
will give you GAND-SM-24 andGAND-24-SM`

So i did this GAND-FM- : random : 10000-#year# but the year didnt work. @missveronicatv

@klenshop

New update again and now you can use GAND-FM- : random : 10000 : #year#
and PHP code will give you -24 in addition to the random number.

Great that works. Thanks @missveronicatv much grateful for the time

Hi @missveronicatv I tested your plugin and found an issue:

I have two roles sharing the same membership ID format:

um_moderator : M#year#
um_custom_role_2 : M#year#

No. of digits: 5 (default)

meta_key: um_unique_account_id

When a user register as um_moderator, it generates M2400145-001 (I suppose if he register as um_custom_role_2, it will give M2400145-002). How can I get rid of “-001” or “-002”?

Regards.

You will get M2400145-001 if M2400145 is being used when Role is changed.
If you use random for one ( or both ) of your Roles then a Role change will not be a duplicate.
Set also min value for the random to 10000

The 145 is the user_id which is not changed by UM with a Role change
and you get the duplicate if both Roles will have same Membership IDs.

With random used in the ID a new random number is generated if there is a duplicate.

You cam also solve this conflict by not having M in both IDs

@missveronicatv thanks for your clarification.

Another thing, just want to know if we set 5 digits, what happen (let’s say no random setting) if the user_id reach 99999? Will it roll back to 00001? Or will it automatically add one more digit 100000, 100001, 100002, …?

@enkoes

Plugin will automatically add one more digit 100000, 100001, 100002

@missveronicatv oh… understood. ??
