put footnotes in a smaller font #79

Closed JosephMcArthur closed 4 years ago

JosephMcArthur commented 4 years ago

generally, the problem is it's not obvious they're footnotes. other ideas suggested include using italics, a footnote header, etc

sssoz commented 4 years ago

You can use the variable $typescale-06 for smaller type

JosephMcArthur commented 4 years ago

Can you give me a code snippet to put in posts, or, ideally, can you set up the style sheet to do this automatically?

sssoz commented 4 years ago

The stylesheet is already set up with all of these variables; I can do it now though :)

I have to see how to config the footnotes in kramdown so that we may add a header ("Footnotes") as well.

JosephMcArthur commented 4 years ago

thanks. Smaller font may be more than enough to show they're footnotes, but if not, then whatever else you think makes sense is grand too

Can’t find anything in the docs about adding a custom "Footnotes" header. Closing with the smaller type, might be just enough like you said.
