This template hides a string of text. If the contents of a cell of a sortable table are prefixed with a hidden string, the cell will sort using the hidden string.

The syntax for this template is:

{{hid|var1}}

where var1 is a string of text.

This template functions like Template:Hs, except this template returns an empty result if var1 is empty.

The use of this template is illustrated by the following sortable table:

House of Windsor
Wikitext Hidden prefix sort without key sort with key
{{hid|A}}[[Edward VII of the United Kingdom]] <span style="display:none">A</span> Edward VII of the United Kingdom AEdward VII of the United Kingdom
{{hid|B}}[[George V of the United Kingdom]] <span style="display:none">B</span> George V of the United Kingdom BGeorge V of the United Kingdom
