Currently, footnotes with hovertips blindly styles the RSS feeds output from Drupal like a regular webpage. Say I have a foonote containing "Alice, Bob, Charlie", I get a result in the RSS feed that looks like:

Solution was found in 20041Alice, Bob, Charlie, blah blah

I'd rather get something a result like this that "escapes" the footnote from the text and removes the reference number:

Solution was found in 2004 [Alice, Bob, Charlie], blah blah

So, is there anything that can be done to adjust the footnote style used by RSS feed?

Thanks!

Do you have a link to a problematic RSS feed? A quick test on an older version of footnotes works as expected. In the RSS feed:

* In the text there is the number and it is a link.
* The number is not superscript as no CSS is applied.
* The footnote text is not visible in the text. If you hover on the link it is visible as a "tooltip".
* The footnote text is visible at the bottom of the teaser.

In any case, whatever your problem is, I'm afraid I cannot help it from footnotes. The Drupal filter system is not context aware. The filter is just given a text fragment and it outputs another text fragment. I have no information whether this is a teaser, the story itself, the RSS feed, a printout... I also don't know anything about the node the text belongs to. It's just a simple input-output operation for a piece of text.

Since I'm pretty sure whatever you are asking for is impossible to do, I will close this bug. Feel free to provide a link though, I'd be happy to take a look.
