    How can I make a shortcode that echoes the number of ocurrence in each post?

    Something like inserting:

    [foo /] [foo /] [foo /]

    And render:

    1 2 3

    function foo_counter($atts) {    // [foo] keeps adding 1 everytime it is called in a post
static $foo_count=0; $foo_count++; return $foo_count;
}
add_shortcode ('foo', 'foo_counter');

    use [foo] in the post

    That works, thanks.
    Is there a way to reset the count in each post (like when more than one appear in a loop)?
