Add inline footnotes to your posts. On desktop, the footnotes will appear as tooltips. On mobile, the footnote will expand beneath the text.

== Description ==
Footnotes optimized for desktop and mobile, inspired by the styles of Grantland and FiveThirtyEight.

Use a footnote in your post by using the footnote icon in the WordPress editor or by using the shortcode: [mfn]this will be a footnote[/mfn] The plugin will automatically associate sequential numbers with each plugin.

On desktop, footnotes will appear as a tooltip when the user clicks on the number. On mobile, footnotes will expand as a section below the current text.

== Installation ==
1. Upload the modern-footnotes folder to your wp-content/plugins directory.
2. Activate the plugin in the WordPress Plugins section.
3. Use a footnote in your post by using the footnote icon in the WordPress editor or by using the shortcode: [mfn]this will be a footnote[/mfn] 
4. Reference numbers will be automatically assigned sequentially so the first footnote is labeled 1, then the next footnote is 2, then 3, etc. You can specify custom reference numbers by using the "referencenumber" attribute to specify a particular reference number. For example: [mfn referencenumber=3]This will have the number 3 with it.[/mfn] 
5. If you want to customize the styles, you can do so by overriding the following styles in custom CSS for your theme:
.modern-footnotes-footnote - The superscript element displaying the footnote number
.modern-footnotes-footnote--selected - A superscript element that is currently active
.modern-footnotes-footnote__note – Styling that applies to both mobile and desktop footnotes
.modern-footnotes-footnote__note--mobile - The styling for a mobile footnote
.modern-footnotes-footnote__note--desktop - The styling for a desktop footnote
