Hi Jon,
The <footnotes></footnotes> method should be considered deprecated, but I’m not planning on dropping support for it in any particular future release and can’t see why I ever would.
I’ve tried to replicate this issue using the latest released version of WP-Footnotes but couldn’t. Everything worked as expected when adding links inside footnotes.
If you’re still having issues and are using the latest version, please log a bug.
Cheers,
Simon
Hi Simon,
First off – this is one of my favorite and most-used plugins. Thank you for all your hard work on it.
Second – I am having the same problem as Jon. For some reason any footnote with “((” and “))” which contains a link does not show up as a footnote, whereas any footnote without a link will.
You can see my posts with this issue on my site here – http://www.makerblock.com
Thanks,
MakerBlock
Ah! I think I know what the problem is!!!
I like to use a double-space after a period when writing. However, when inspecting the source code of the page, I saw the following:
((
at the start of the footnote. I changed the double space before the footnote into a single space, and the problem disappeared. For some reason this issue did not occur when using a footnote without a link.
I hope this helps,
MakerBlock

Hi MakerBlock,
Thanks for the feedback. I’m not sure this is the same issue as Jon, but your double spacing should be fine – I’ve added a bug to the bug tracker, and this should get fixed for the next release.
