Firstly let me just say how amazing this module it. Clean, simple, awesome!

For me the only thing it's lacking is the ability to put a title at the top.

I realise in books you don't have 'Footnotes' at the top of the footnotes but it would be great to have that when you have a huge long scrolling page with over 100 footnotes at the bottom.

Really not important, but would just be a nice feature I think.

Thanks :-) I have enjoyed working with it myself since I agree it is clean and simple. I'm always glad to hear people think it is awesome too!

So what you want to do is actually supported:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,<fn>footnote 1</fn> consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore<fn>footnote 2</fn> eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est laborum.

<strong>Footnotes:</strong>
<footnotes />

Again simple and clean, since I didn't have to write a single line of code :-)

But seriously, the above approach gives you the most flexibility in what you want to write as title, in which language, how to style it, etc...

The only requirement/assumption is that you know when there are footnotes and when not, which imho should almost always be the case. If you didn't author the text by hand, the script/tool that generates it for you could still easily check if it contains footnotes, and then add the title.
