1 This template is for adding a hidden count meant for use in a sortable table. Usage:

{{ hcount | countername }}

where countername is the name of the counter being used. Place this template in each cell of a given column.

IMPORTANT:

Please be sure to first reset the counter before making any calls to this template in order to a sufficiently high enough number like this:

{{ resetcount: countername | 10000 }}

This ensures that the table is sorted correctly (in proper numerical order).
