Footnotes stay in when I run generator #13

I run the generator and it does add end notes however it does not take the footnotes out, what should I do?

I've tested and I can't replicate the problem. Is it possible to share the doc so I can look at it directly?

@jacobD1996 Ok, I found the error. Two of your footnotes aren't actually footnotes, so the Addon is failing. Citations 6 and 7 have superscripts in front of the text and the script expects the marker at the end of the line.

All you need to do is delete 6 and 7 and reinsert them using Insert > Footnote. Then run the Addon again and it will convert everything.

Here's a link to my copy with all footnotes converted. Reply here when you're finished and I'll close the issue.
