What would be the best way to address this ?

just remove the link element, but continue to display the [1], and the foot-notes
hide the link and foot-notes entirely
insert the foot-note in a title element so it can be displayed on hover, depending on the editor, and dropping styling elements along the way.
something else

Fixed in release 0.4.0

Following up here, it seems like this isn't fully resolved, or maybe reverted back to undesirable behavior?

I have this text:

Habitats[^1].

Which renders fine in the Obsidian live view, but when I use this plugin to copy-paste it into Google Docs, it comes out as just

Habitats1.

I was hoping it could at least have the 1 be superscript :) It's causing some confusion with my readers.

Hi @toddmedema,

I cannot reproduce this with Obsidian 1.4.16 and this plugin version 0.6.0.

How footnotes are displayed is controlled by the footnote setting :

This is how it renders in Google Docs :

mvdkwast commented 1 year ago

Just a thought, @toddmedema, maybe you forgot the colon (:) in the foot-note ?

The following document renders as My foot-note reference1 in both reading mode and when copied, because a column is missing after [^1]

My foot-note reference[^1] 

[^1 ] my foot-note

If you can reproduce the problem, please open a new issue for it.

Ah, I found the issue. I needed to add a newline break before the footnotes section, e.g.

As the first snow of the season drifted down, [[Miki]] began. "Alright team, circle up. We have one week to install these five Habitats[^1].

Footnotes:

[^1]: Habitats: Modularly-assembled buildings.

Instead of

As the first snow of the season drifted down, [[Miki]] began. "Alright team, circle up. We have one week to install these five Habitats[^1].

Footnotes:
