Change footnote appearance?

Hi Tony,

There are limited styling options in the plugin, with the idea that, by default, it will take on your theme’s defaults. If you want to change it any further, you can use CSS – e.g. the footnotes have a class of footnotes, whereas the individual footnotes has a class of footnote.

Thanks for your incredibly quick reply, David ?? Sadly, CSS is way out of my depth, so I’ll just leave the footnotes as they are. It’s fine; if people can’t read them they can just boost the zoom on their browser ??

Cheers and, once again, thank you for an excellent plugin ??

There may be a way. If you go into Appearance -> Customise in WP Admin, do you have any options for CSS? Maybe an option named “Custom CSS”, or similar?

If so, head in there and add this line…

.footnotes {font-size: 32px;}

Adjust that 32px to a size that’s most suitable for you.

Woah! You, sir, are a genius. I had to fiddle with the pixel size (32 down to 18) but yes! It worked! Nicely done, thank you ??

For my system, it was Appearance – Customise – Additional CSS. Pasted your code into the top empty line, and the job’s a good ‘un.

Thanks again, David

Cheers
Tony

Excellent news – I’m glad that worked ??

I’ll look at adding something like this to the instructions for other users.
