Simple Footnotes
Simple Footnotes is a Pelican plugin for adding footnotes to articles and pages.
Installation
This plugin, and its dependent package html5lib, can be installed via:
python -m pip install pelican-simple-footnotes
Usage
When writing an article or page, add a footnote like this:
Here’s my written text[ref]and here is a footnote[/ref].
This will appear as, roughly:
Here’s my written text1
- and here is a footnote
↩
This should work with any content format (reST, Markdown, et cetera), because
it looks for [ref] and [/ref] once the conversion to HTML has happened.
