Footnotes module can be used to easily create automatically numbered footnote references into an article or post (such as a reference to a URL). This is the first 2.x release of the Drupal Footnotes module, with several enhancements compared to 1.x. Introducing the new square bracket syntax makes Footnotes usable also in WYSIWYG editors like TinyMCE and FCKEditor.
This release also includes "Better URL filter", which can be used to replace the (incomplete) URL filter available in Drupal core. Especially Footnotes users have suffered from the current URL filter, so the inclusion of a fixed URL filter in Footnotes provides for much awaited relief to Footnotes users. Even so, it is also possible to use Better URL filter independent of the Footnotes filter.
Changelog highlights:
- Add support for using [fn]square brackets[/fn] (268026)
- Add support for specifying "value" attribute. (emfabric 282104)
- Adding Better URL filter (fork from core). http://drupal.org/node/161217
- There appears to also be a French translation now. Thanks Beginner! (Japanese already done earlier.)
- Start using the Drupal theme system, footnotes can now be themed by site admins (emfabric 221156)
