<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>

<p>This plugin gives you a shortcode to make numbered references to footnotes, directly from your post content. Footnotes are listed and enumerated automatically at the end of your post<br />
content, reusing all existing styles of your site. All references become anchor links guiding the user to the footnote section of the post.</p>
<p>We would love to hear and discuss your feedback in a <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/mnml-footnotes/reviews/" rel="ugc">review</a>. If you want to report a bug or have a feature request, please do so via the <a href="https://github.com/maurobringolf/mnml-footnotes" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub repository</a>.</p>
<h3>Usage</h3>
<p>To make a new footnote reference in your content you can use the shortcode <strong>mnml_footnote</strong> in the following way:</p>
<p><em>This is your regular post content and the shortcode by this plugin looks like this [mnml_footnote] Easy, right? [/mnml_footnote]</em></p>
<p>Everything inside the shortcode will be moved into a footnote and replaced by a numbered reference link to it. In this example the footnote content would be <em>“Easy, right?”</em>.</p>
