Footnote Writer
===============

[](#footnote-writer)

A lightweight Drupal filter that converts simple inline footnote markers into numbered footnotes appended to the end of the content.

Overview
--------

[](#overview)

Footnote Writer provides a minimal syntax for adding footnotes directly inside text without dealing with HTML or manual numbering.

It is designed to:

- reduce friction while writing
- avoid manual footnote management
- integrate cleanly with Drupal’s text format system

This module does one thing:

- transform \[fn: ...\] into structured, numbered footnotes

-----

Write footnotes inline using:

\[fn: This is a footnote.\]

Multiple footnotes are supported:

This is a sentence.\[fn: First note.\]

Another sentence.\[fn: Second note.\] Output Behavior

The filter will:

replace each \[fn: ...\] with a numbered marker in the text collect all footnotes append them to the end of the content in order

Example (conceptual):

This is a sentence.¹

Another sentence.²

1. First note.
2. Second note. ##Installation

drush en footnote\_writer

- Basic HTML
- Full HTML

- Nested footnotes are not supported
