Footnotes

[almontg]

Very willing to accept that this is a me issue, but I can't figure out how to get footnotes to work. I can see the options to create a link to an anchor on the page, but not to actually create the anchor:

When I try to do it by hand in the html editor accessed via the "source" button, the anchor disappears after I save:

before save:

after save:

Very open to other ways of handling footnotes, but we do need some kind of system.

Don't you need an it to be an in the anchor, and not an ID in a

tag? Like:

(link)
<a href="#Anchorname">linked text</a>

(target)
<a name="Anchorname">a named anchor</a>

That also causes the same problem described above—the tag disappears after saving.

Where are you trying to save this and it's not saving?

[almontg]

From the CMS, i.e. here: https://argo.stage.diedrick.com/admin/people.php/1

Is is because the notes and "people description" are in different fields maybe?

[diedrick]

Do you see the anchor here in Notes?

And in the People Description source above it, do you see this?

[almontg]

I can see the text "a named anchor" but it appears to no longer be, in fact, a named anchor:

It's there for me like this: And in source:

What browser are you using? And does it still show up as just a p after clearing your cache?

[almontg]

Clearing the cache worked! I still can't select anchors from the drop down link creating menu in the wysiwyg editor but I can add them in source. Thank you for walking me through this lol.
