This module allows you to consecutively number nodes of a particular type authored by a single user.
Generally used with the Token module (required) and the Pathauto module it's most common use is to create URL's for nodes without having Drupal's standard nid as part of the URL.
For example:
Assume you've created a form for users to fill out for each of their support requests. This 'request' form is a new Drupal node type. If a user named userfoo has 2 requests then the URLs for these could be consecutively numbered similar to the following:
www.example.com/request/userfoo/1
www.example.com/request/userfoo/2
and if userbar has 9 requests then the URLs for these could be consecutively numbered similar to the following:
www.example.com/request/userbar/1
www.example.com/request/userbar/2
... to
www.example.com/request/userbar/9
The numbers 1 to 2 for userfoo and 1 to 9 for userbar are created by this module. The above assumes that Pathauto is used to create an alias for all request node types similar to the following:
request/[author-name]/[unid]
As used in the previous example, this module just helps give Drupal installations a more professional look and feel. When used within the Pathauto module the unid token is called [unid].
This module creates a 'unid' token - The unid provides each node a unique number that's consecutive for the nodes created by this author of this type. Similar to the Type local nids module except the unid is numbered for each user.
The unid may also be useful in other modules such as Computed_field, Uploadpath, Filefield, Contemplate, Tokenize, Custom_breadcrumbs etc. It is expected to be useful for other applications such as generating numbers for invoices etc
The module includes Views 2 integration. As well as allowing node based listings to show the node's unid this also allows creating reports on number of nodes authored of each type by each author.
An README.txt is included which includes extensive instructions and FAQ. Use the documentation link below to read this.
