It may be better / easier to instead assign a timestamp. That way you're a little more on the safe end in terms of uniqueness. To figure out how to set one at a desired field, take a look at how the variable *journalTitleTemplate* is used with the *Now*Macro <http://tiddlywiki.com/#NowMacro> at: $:/core/ui/Buttons/new-journal-here <http://tb5.tiddlyspot.com/#%24%3A%2Fcore%2Fui%2FButtons%2Fnew-journal-here> However, you could as well use the core *created* date, instead. May be I would to have the last assigned number stored somewhere in the > temp. > You could to retrieve and then calculate and set the number for your counter and then the newly created tiddler using the calc macro (or sum <http://mathmacros.tiddlyspot.com>)... calc @ tb5 <http://tb5.tiddlyspot.com/#calc> ...and the appropriate ActionWidgets <http://tiddlywiki.com/#ActionWidgets> in a ButtonWidget <http://tiddlywiki.com/#ButtonWidget>. This may also be interesting... Custom New Journal Button @ tb5 <http://tb5.tiddlyspot.com/#Custom%20New%20Journal%20Button> Let us know if you need more pointers.
