RandomAlex Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I would like to have endnotes in a blog post, where you can click on the number and be taken to the endnote; and then click on an arrow/other symbol and be taken back to your original spot in the post. See this post for an example - the links within the essay don't work, hence this post: https://www.speculativeinsight.com/essays/men-who-respect-witches-1 Can anyone suggest how I might make this work?

RandomAlex Posted March 7 Author Share Posted March 7 (edited) The problem with this is that a code block can't be in the middle of a paragraph of text, as far as I can see - so I can have an anchor link to a heading, as I have now done: https://www.speculativeinsight.com/essays/men-who-respect-witches-1 ... but I can't have a link to a specific footnote, nor can I have a link BACK to the text that you just left. Unless there is some way to do this in the middle of a text block? Edited March 7 by RandomAlex clarifying my problem Link to comment

RandomAlex Posted March 8 Author Share Posted March 8 But if the footnote needs to go at the end of a sentence, NOT the end of a paragraph, that doesn't solve the problem. Like this: The increasing gap between the rich and poor can lead, as The Spirit Level argues, to conflict and unrest.[1] The limited opportunities afforded to... I've managed to link the [1] to the bottom of the page, where the endnote is. I cannot, however, make the note at the bottom of the page link BACK to that text near the top of the page.

Helloparkerg Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 An unfortunate work around might be to create a section styling the end notes how you want and then save that and drop it in each time you create a blog post. Link to comment
RandomAlex Posted March 11 Author Share Posted March 11 Hi @Helloparkerg - as far as I can tell that doesn't help with the issue of sending people BACK to their place in the text? See what I mean here: https://www.speculativeinsight.com/essays/men-who-respect-witches-1 - I can send the reader to the bottom of the page, for the footnote text, but I don't know how to have a link at the end of the footnote text to send them back up the page, to the place they left. (Which is usually in the middle of a paragraph.) Helloparkerg 1 Link to comment
