Hi,
thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
For this, you could take a look at the TablePress Extension from https://tablepress.org/extensions/datatables-counter-column/

Thanks for the reply. I do have the counter column installed, but it is not working. After I enter the data and the teams are reordered on the front end based on points, the ranking column moves along with it.
this is the line im using:
[table id=23 row_order=sort row_order_sort_column=8 row_order_sort_direction=DESC datatables_counter_column=true /]
Hi,
Can you please post a link to the page with the table where this problem happens, so that I can take a direct look? Thanks!

Tobias
Sure, the go to Division 3 and you will see an example:

Hi,
in the slowpitch standings?
For the Extension to work, the “Use DataTables” checkbox has to be enabled on the table’s “Edit” screen, and at least the sorting or the filtering functionality.
There’s however a major issue, probably in your theme: It seems to be loading its own and totally outdated version of the jQuery JS library. This is causing JS script errors, which you can see in the error log console in the browser. For ideas on how to fix that, please see https://tablepress.org/faq/js-functions-not-working/

Thank Tobias I’ll take a look and see how it goes. Much appreciated.
Hi,
no problem, you are very welcome! 🙂 I hope it helps!

Hi,
Please excuse the long wait for a reply. I just returned from holidays last night and was not able to reply earlier. Thanks for your understanding.
You are using #colspan# in the table head row of this table. This is not compatible with the DataTables JS library (and thus the counter column). You will need to remove all those #colspan# from the table.
Regards,
Tobias
Thanks so much Tobias! Yes… I had already found the problem, so there are no solutions… 🙁
Hi,
no, sorry 🙁 Using both colspan and the JS features at the same time is not possible.
Regards,
Tobias
