This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working.

1. Upload plugin to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
3. Optionally, place <php credibility_footnotes_display(); ?> in your template where wanted.

Why use this plugin?

This plugin is a simple way to add footnotes to your posts and add credibility (no pun intended) to your website. While there is at least one other option, we needed the ability to put the footnotes anywhere within our theme. For example, in one use case, we wanted to place the footnotes after an optin.
