FAQ: How Do I Use The Footnotes Feature?

[Jamie~poetshare.forumotion.com]

I have added the ability to add footnotes[footnote:1]This is a footnote[/footnote] to your posts. Should you wish to explain something about a post, this is how you would go about it.[footnote:2]By adding footnotes, silly![/footnote]

So how does it work? Just like every other tag, really. Where you would put the "i" inside brackets for italics, or the "b" for bold, you would place "footnote:N" around the text you want to be the footnote.
The N in "footnote:N" is the number of the footnote. YOU must place a number where the N is, so keep track of them and don't duplicate footnote numbers or you will have a posting error.

So the formula goes like this:

I want to footnote the word Charleston[footnote:3]The Charleston, popular dance in the early 20th century[/footnote] in this sentence to clarify that I'm writing about The Charleston the Dance and not Charleston the Place.

I want to footnote the word Charleston{footnote:3}The Charleston, popular dance in the early 20th century{/footnote} in this sentence to clarify that I'm writing about The Charleston the Dance and not Charleston the Place.

Change the brackets {}to the squared brackets [] and these two past paragraphs will look the same! That's how you do a footnote.


UPDATE: ONLY TEXT WILL WORK IN FOOTNOTES, NO SMILIES EVEN!
