wp_unique_prefixed_id()

It is similar to wp_unique_id, but each prefix has its own internal ID counter to make each prefix independent from each other. The ID starts at 1 and increments on each call. The returned value is not universally unique, but it is unique across the life of the PHP process and it’s stable per prefix.
