new number assigned without submission

so here is the dilemma. We want to use this plugin to assign a new ID for each member. He don’t want to assign numbers to existing members. We have found a way around this. However here is the big issue.

Every-time the page refreshes, the number increments. We want to make it so you have to submit the form to assign the new number. Is this possible? Otherwise the number changes simply by opening the page.

we use sticky forms list, and we use the duplicate function. We would LOVE it if every-time we duplicate the form, it does not generate a new ID

thoughts?
