Sometimes reference texts can be very long and it make be desirable only to show the citation number (or text) without the full reference text.
Use the CK Editor enabled field
Add a checkbox option to the text format configuration:
Use that to change the output in the editor preview:

scott_euser commentedIts definitely opinionated unfortunately, so it needs to be configurable.

Comment #7
sirclickalotHi @scott_euser,
This all sounds VERY encouraging indeed and I am looking forward to trying it out.
Just one thing though, and I humbly apologies if I was not clear, I not looking for the word 'fn' as a literal; as I hoped to make clear by use of the
#character, what I'm after is the actual footnote number itself.Comment #8
scott_euser commentedThe number itself won't work though as the WYSIWYG is unaware of how many other WYSIWYGs are on the page. You'll have to pick a generic character or perhaps unicode symbol (it's controllable).
Comment #9
scott_euser commentedBest to consider eg one of the symbols listed on the Wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Note_(typography)
Comment #10
scott_euser commentedOh just to clarify I'm talking about auto-numbering only. If you manually number the citations with actual values those will show in the preview.
Comment #11
jstollerMR !93 works as advertised, and provides a much better user experience, IMHO.
Comment #13
scott_euser commentedThanks for checking. Given its opt-in + has test coverage going to merge this in now
Comment #15
scott_euser commentedIf someone wants to work on this:
It can be in a follow-up (but I really don't see how the back-end text format could ever reliably be aware of all possible formatted texts in the front-end theme without some complex auto-submit preview and pulling that calculated info back into the particular CKE instance - does not seem possible (or at least not without a huge amount of effort and extra pressure server)
