Auto-generated title based on last entry I am attempting to make one of my sections use auto-generated titles. I am making my first entry with a title like 8000. What I need is the second entry to be titled 8001, the third 8002, etc. Each entry must have a unique title in sequence.

This is the Title Format I tried using:

{{ craft.entries.section('scripts').last().title + 1 }}

I created a test entry after that and it successfully generated a title similar to the last entry plus one. However, when I created a second test entry, the title remained the same as the first test entry, but the slug was titlexx-1. I made another test entry, same thing, with the slug titlexx-2.

What am I missing in my Title Format?

Thanks for the help!
Something like this should do what you're looking for:

{% if not object.id %}{{ craft.entries.section('scripts').order('postDate DESC').first().title + 1 }}{% else %}{{ object.title }}{% endif %}
