This allows you to easily add inline “footnotes” to your content. In places where you place the shortcode will appear a little number that is clickable to see the footnote content.
Example syntax: <code>[footnote]This is my footnote.[/footnote]</code>

Inline Footnotes

Enables adding footnotes via shortcodes in your content.

Footnotes optimized for desktop and mobile, inspired by the styles of Grantland and FiveThirtyEight.
Use a footnote in your post by using the footnote icon in the WordPress editor or by using the shortcode: [mfn]this will be a footnote[/mfn] The plugin will automatically associate sequential numbers with each plugin.
On desktop, footnotes will appear as a tooltip when the user clicks on the number. On mobile, footnotes will expand as a section below the current text.
You can also use the [mfn_list] shortcode to display a list of footnotes used in the article.

<h3>Shortcode options</h3>
You can modify some behaviours or styles of your footnotes by using the following options within our shortcode. 
[mfn referencenumber=3]This footnote will have the number 3[/mfn] 
[mfn class=’my-pretty-class’]This footnote will have ‘my-pretty-class’ as additional class, allowing for custom styling of individual footnotes.[/mfn] 
[mfn referencereset=’true’]This footnote will reset the footnote counter and therfore receive 1 as its number. Following footnotes will also receive their number according to this new start.[/mfn]
