<p>Civil Footnotes is a WordPress plugin for adding footnotes on your blog. Civil Footnotes parses your posts for notes wrapped in ((double parenthesis)), then extracts that parenthesized text into a footnote list at the end of the post.</p>
<p>There are many solutions for managing footnotes within your WordPress website, but Civil Footnotes distinguishes itself from the rest with a simple, readable plain text syntax that works whether you’re using the WordPress block editor, a Markdown editor, or the classic editor plugin.</p>
<p>The majority of Civil Footnotes’ formatting is taken from the blog <a href="https://daringfireball.net/" rel="nofollow ugc">Daring Fireball</a>, which first debuted this style of footnotes <a href="http://daringfireball.net/2005/07/footnotes" rel="nofollow ugc">in 2005</a>. The key difference is the addition of a <code>title</code> attribute to the footnote reference in the text which permits sighted mouse users to efficiently read the note by hovering their cursor over the reference number.</p>
