README

Plugin that automatically ups each increment field by one number.

Features:

• Able to output the value in the CP and in the Site (no other plugin has this feature)
• Ability to have the value prefixed with text or variables (like {id} or {{now.year}})
• Ability to reset increment yearly
• Ability to zero pad the value
• This plugin checks if the calculated next value is still unique on save

Important: The plugin's folder should be named "increment"

Credits: This plugin's idea is derived from the Sprout Incremental Plugin by Barrel Strength Design

Deprecated

With the release of Craft 3 on 4-4-2018, this plugin has been deprecated. You can still use this with Craft 2 but you are encouraged to use (and develop) a Craft 3 version. At this moment, I have no plans to do so.
