03 / Website use cases
Where to use ordinal number formatter
Writers, teachers and event organisers often need the right ordinal for a number, and the exceptions (11th, 12th, 13th, 111th) catch people out. Ordinal number formatter runs on your own page: visitors type a whole number and see the English ordinal with the right suffix, the ordinal in words such as “one hundred and twelfth”, and a Copy button. Suffixes come from the browser's own English plural rules.
Schools
Let pupils practise ordinal numbers and their words.
Events and anniversaries
Work out the wording for a 25th or 112th celebration.

08 / Common setup problems
Troubleshoot ordinal number formatter
Check these settings if the published page behaves differently from the editor.
Why is the suffix English on my French site?
The widget follows English rules only. The note under it says so.
Why are no words shown for a very large number?
Words are shown for numbers up to 999,999,999,999.
Why does “-5” show an error?
Ordinals are for whole numbers of 0 or more.
Why does the copied text not have a raised suffix?
Copy gives plain text, such as 21st, so it pastes cleanly anywhere.
Ordinal number formatter plugin questions
Does it need Elementor Pro?
No. It works with the free version of Elementor.
Does it handle 11th, 12th and 13th?
Yes. Suffixes come from the browser's English ordinal rules, including 111th and 112th.
Can it write ordinals in other languages?
No. Suffixes and words are English, and a note on the widget says so.
Is it accessible?
Yes. The field is labelled, errors are linked to it, and each result is announced.
Does it need JavaScript?
Yes. Without it a short message is shown instead.
