== Description ==

HELP WANTED! Dear fine footnotes community. Unpredicted challenges in the lives of the footnotes team currently make it impossible to further the development and curation of the plugin.
We are proud of you and what we could give you. Turns out our plugin's ships with some kinks, we'd like to address. We therefore need you as a developer to have a look at our code and the forum and help in solving these issues.
I'm willing to pay you for helping our users out. This plugin's got about 10% market share in all footnotes related plugins, so we serve a significant part of the community. Please get in touch and assist. Thank you.

Cheers for the review, folks!

**footnotes** aims to be the all-in-one solution for displaying an automatically generated list of references on your Page or Post. The Plugin ships with a set of sane defaults but also gives the user control over how their footnotes are being displayed.
**footnotes** gives you the ability to display decently-formated footnotes on your WordPress Pages or Posts (those footnotes we know from offline publishing).

= Main Features =
- Fully customizable **footnotes** shortcode
- Decide, where your **footnotes** are displayed (position of the *Reference Container*)
- Add custom CSS to style the appeareance of the **footnotes**
- Responsive *Reference Container*
- Mouse-Over Box with clickable links displays your **footnotes** text
- Automatic numbering of your **footnotes**
- Choose from a list of symbols to represent your **footnotes**
- Display the **footnotes** *Reference Container* inside a Widget
- Button in both the Visual and the Text editor
  - Add **footnotes** into your Page / Post with ease of use by selecting your text and clicking the button

= Example Usage =
This is an example. Please note, that you can customize the shortcode you want to use.

1. Your awesome text((with an awesome footnote))
2. Your awesome text[ref]with an awesome footnote[/ref]
3. Your awesome text`<fn>`with an awesome footnote`</fn>`
4. Your awesome text `custom-shortcode` with an awesome footnote `custom-shortcode`

= Where to get footnotes? =
The current version is available on wordpress.org:
http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/footnotes.zip

= Support =
Please report feature requests, bugs and other support related questions in the WordPress Forums at https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/footnotes

Speak your mind, unload your burdens. Notice how we screwed up big time? Bring it to our attention in the above mentioned WordPress Forums. Be polite, though :)

= Development =
Development of the plugin is an open process. Latest code is available on wordpress.org

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Is your Plugin a copy of footnotes x? =

No, this Plugin has been written from scratch. Of course some inspirations on how to do or how to not do things were taken from other plugins.

= Your Plugin is awesome! How do I convert my footnotes if I used one of the other footnotes plugins out there? =

1. For anyone interested in converting from the FD Footnotes plugin:
Visit this swift write-up from a **footnotes** user by the name of **Southwest**: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-make-this-footnote-style?replies=6#post-5946306
2. From what we've researched, all other footnotes Plugins use open and close shortcodes, which can be left as is. In the **footnotes** settings menu, you can setup **footnotes** to use the existing (=previously used) shortcodes. Too easy? Yippy Ki-Yey!
= I'm happy with how the Plugin works =
1. Pour a glass of your favourite beverage
2. Take a deep breath
3. Donate whatever amount you think is appropriate here: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=BYSY26N8L8VJC
4. Enjoy how you just made a bunch of young folks even more enthusiastic about developing useful stuff
5. Now it's time to empty that glass in one go

== Installation ==
- Visit your WordPress Admin area
- Navigate to `Plugins\Add`
- Search for **footnotes** and find this Plugin among others
- Install the latest version of the **footnotes** Plugin from WordPress.org
- Activate the Plugin

4. Settings for **footnotes** love
5. Other Settings
6. The HowTo section in the **footnotes** settings
7. Here you can see the **footnotes** Plugin at work. Isn't that plain beautiful?
