Footnotes for WordPress is a simple plugin designed with a simple aim in mind: to make 
it dead-easy to include decently-formatted footnotes in posts and pages on your 
WordPress blog.
The syntax is roughly based on the common MediaWiki syntax for footnotes, but uses the 
WordPress shortcode conventions. So, to include a footnote with the text “Text,” you use:
<pre><code>This is footnoted.[ref]Text[/ref]
</code></pre>
And that’s all you need to do. When you add a footnote, Footnotes for WordPress will 
create a note marker at the point that the foonote appears in the text, and includes 
the text of the footnote in a styled list of notes down the page. When a reader clicks 
on the link in a JavaScript-enabled browser, a script included with the plugin will 
create a small bubble inline in the text, which pops up over the footnote marker for 
easy reading without losing their place. In non-JavaScript-enabled contexts, clicking 
on the footnote marker jumps down the page to the text of the note.
The jump is based on an unique anchor which the plugin can automatically generate for 
you. However, if you want to create a specific ID of your own for the footnote, you 
can do so using the <code>name="..."</code> attribute:
<pre><code>This is footnoted.[ref name="my-unique-id-1"]Text[/ref]
</code></pre>
If you define an ID for a footnote, you can also refer back to the same footnote 
later on in the document, using the <code>[backref name="..."]</code> shortcode.
<pre><code>This is footnoted.[ref name="source1"]Source 1[/ref]

So is this.[ref name="source2"]Source[/ref]

And this one comes from the same source as the first.[backref name="source1"]
</code></pre>
Footnotes are numbered, beginning at 1. However, you can change the numbering if you 
so desire using the <code>number="..."</code> attribute. For example, I often use this when 
quoting from a book that contains footnotes or endnotes, in order to represent the 
notes used by the original text.
<pre><code>This is footnoted, but footnotes begin at number 42.[ref number="42"]...[/ref]
</code></pre>
You can change the text that is displayed in the note’s superscripted link from the 
note’s number to any text or symbol that you choose using the <code>superscript="..."</code> 
attribute. For example, to use an asterisk instead of the note number:
<pre><code>This is footnoted with a good old asterisk.[ref superscript="*"]...[/ref]
</code></pre>
By default, the list of footnotes appears at the bottom of the post. However, if you 
wish them to appear somewhere above the bottom of the post, for formatting or other 
reasons, you can do so using the <code>[references/]</code> shortcode:
<pre><code>This is footnoted.[ref]Text[/ref]

As are some[ref]Text[/ref] other things.

[references/]

See also: Endnotes.
</code></pre>
Which will cause the two footnotes to appear beneath the second paragraph but above 
the “See also:” text.
<h3>Usage</h3>
<ul>
<li>
To create a footnote, use <code>[ref]...[/ref]</code> to wrap the text of your note.
Example: <code>This is footnoted.[ref]This is the text of the of the footnote.[/ref]</code>
</li>
<li>
Normally footnotes use numbered superscripts to indicate the footnote, beginning 
with 1. You can choose to use symbols instead, like *, **, †, etc. To use custom 
text for a footnote’s superscript, use <code>[ref superscript="*"]...[/ref]</code>, and 
replace the asterisk with whatever symbol or text you want to use.
</li>
<li>
Normally footnotes begin at 1 and count up towards infinity. If you want to use 
numbered subscripts but need to reset the number they count from, use the <code>number</code> 
attribute. For example, if you want the current subscript to be numbered 128, and 
for subsequent subscripts to be numbered 129, 130, etc., use: 
 [ref number=”128″]…[/ref].
</li>
<li>
To create a footnote with a specific unique ID, instead of the one that the plugin 
will automatically generate for you, use <code>[ref name="..."]...[/ref]</code>
Example: <code>This is footnoted.[ref name="my-unique-id"]This is the note text.[/ref]</code>
</li>
<li>
If you define an ID for a footnote, you can also refer back to the same 
footnote later on in the document, using the <code>[backref name="..."]</code> 
shortcode.
This is footnoted.[ref name=”source1″]Source 1[/ref]
So is this.[ref name=”source2″]Source[/ref]
And this one comes from the same source as the first.[backref name=”source1″]
</li>
<li>
To force the plugin to display notes at a different location instead of at the bottom 
of the post, use <code>[references/]</code>
Example:
This is footnoted.[ref]Text[/ref]
As are some[ref]Text[/ref] other things.
[references/]
See also: Endnotes.
</li>
<li>
If you wish to change how footnotes are styled, you can alter them in your 
WordPress theme stylesheet, or using JavaScript. The default elements and 
classes are <code><a class="footnoted"></code> for superscript links to footnotes,
</li>
</ul>
<
ol class=”footnotes”> for the list of references, and
<li> for each individual footnote. So, for example, to 
 display footnotes at the bottom in a simple list, rather than in individual 
 boxes with “Note” headers, add the following line to your Theme stylesheet:</li>

<pre><code> ol.footnotes li {
 background: transparent !important;
 padding: 0px !important;
 border: none !important;
 margin: 0.5em 2em !important;
 }

The use of `!important` will ensure that it overrides the default styles
set up by the plugin.
</code></pre>
<ul>
<li>
Alternatively, if you want to change the CSS class which is applied to to 
the footnotes list, you can do so using the <code>class</code> parameter on 
 [references/]:
<pre><code>This is a test.[ref]Lewis (2000).[/ref]

<h3>Notes</h3>

[references class="compact" /]
</code></pre>
… which will produce the following HTML:
<pre><code>This is a test.[<a href="#test-n-1" class="footnoted"
id="to-test-n-1">1</a>]

<h3>Notes</h3>
<ol class="compact">
<li class="footnote" id="test-n-1">[1] Lewis
(2000). <a class="note-return" href="#to-test-n-1">↩</a></li
></ol>
</code></pre>
Since the default styling is based on children of <code>ol.footnotes</code>, those 
styles will not apply, and you can apply whatever styles you wish to the 
class that you’ve created.
<h3>Changes from version 2010.0309 to version 2010.0822</h3>
</li>
<li>

</li>
<li>
Added <code>[references class="foo" /]</code> syntax, allowing user to supply their own class for CSS re-styling purposes.
</li>
<li>
Tested for and verified compatibility up to WordPress 3.0.1 and WordPress trunk.
</li>
</ul>
<h3>Changes from version 2010.0306 to version 2010.0309</h3>

To report bugs or request features, please go to https://github.com/digfish/papercite. Documentation can be found on http://papercite.readthedocs.org/en/latest/.
papercite format bibtex entries as HTML so they can be inserted in 
WordPress pages and posts. The input data is a bibtex file (either local 
or remote) and entries can be formatted by default using various 
predefined styles. Bibtex source file and a link to the publication are 
also available from the HTML.
Input: Sources files are BibTex files that can be:
<ul>
<li>WordPress media files (since 0.5.6)</li>
<li>Stored into a WordPress folder (with multi-site support);</li>
<li>An URL (e.g., from citeulike.org and bibsonomy.org);</li>
<li>A custom field when local to a post/page</li>
</ul>
Efficiency:
<ul>
<li>Database backend to speed up the processing by caching the bibtex 
entries for big BibTeX files.</li>
<li>Fast OsBiB-based parser</li>
</ul>
Filtering and grouping:
<ul>
<li>Filtering on publication type and authors</li>
<li>Regular expression filtering on any type</li>
<li>Publications can be grouped and sorted in various ways</li>
</ul>
Output:
<ul>
<li>Access the single bibtex entry source code to enable copy&paste 
(toggle-enabled visualization)</li>
<li>Easy output customisation with the use of two templates: one for 
each entry, one for the list of entries</li>
<li>Auto-detection of PDF files based on the BibTeX key (or on the PDF 
entry)</li>
<li>Citation mode: use references in the text and print the citations at 
the end of a block, page or post</li>
<li>Form to let the user dynamically filter the entries</li>
</ul>
Documentation can be found from within WordPress plugin list (click on 
the documentation link). You can see the documentation of the plugin

<h3>Where is the documentation?</h3>
The documentation is now bundled with the plug-in. Go to the plug-in 
list page in the WordPress dashboard, and click on the documentation 
link.
<h3>How can I edit my bibtex files?</h3>
If your file is local to the blog installation, you have two options:
<ul>
<li>via FTP client with text editor</li>
<li>via WordPress Admin interface: Manage->Files->Other Files</li>
</ul>
** use wp-content/papercite-data/bib/mybibfile.bib as a path
Alternatively, you can maintain your updated biblilography by using 
systems such as citeulike.org and bibsonomy.org; specify the bib file 
using as a URL (e.g., in citeulike, you should use 
http://www.citeulike.org/bibtex/user/username)
<h3>How are the entries sorted?</h3>
Entries are sorted by year by default.
<h3>How can I personalize the HTML rendering?</h3>
The HTML rendering is isolated in two template files, located in the 
subfolders tpl (citation list rendering) and format (entry rendering).
<h3>How do I use the new textual footnotes ?</h3>
Using the new shortcode <code>[ppcnote]</code>. For example:
In molecular biology, the term double helix [ppcnote]usually applies to DNA[\ppcnote]
will result in a footnote being generated after the post text. The numbering of the footnotes is separated from the one used in the citations.
