Show post numbers

feature

Is it possible to show post numbers for each post (Or easy to do via CSS or similar). My use case is running forum mafia, where allowing users to easily refer to a post without the bulk of quoting it would be amazing.

Just press the link button under each post, and the post number is visible there.

It is hard to say if this is what you are looking for, but it should get you close.

We use that CSS to put #1, #2, et al on a topic after the date/timestamp.

a.post-date span {
  margin-right: 1em;
}

a.post-date:after {
  content: "#"attr(data-post-number);
}

This doesn’t seem to work anymore. Is there a current way to show post numbers?
