Move Footnotes Above Related Content

I don’t know the Zementa plugin, but it should help if you play around with the priority value (’20’) in line 43 of easy-footnotes.php:

add_filter('the_content', array($this, 'easy_footnote_after_content'), 20);

I’m using the Jetpack Plugin and I’ve set it to ’18’, to have the footnotes above the related posts and above the sharing buttons. See also here.

So for some reason, when I change it to 18 it breaks my home page (see pic) and does nothing to move the footnotes. I changed the number to several different random numbers, cleared my cache, tried several browsers, and it doesn’t budge.

Unfortunately I have no idea what’s going on. (The text on the screenshot is to small to be readable.)

In the Zemanta Forum I’ve seen some related threads:

It’s also possible that the page crash comes from a conflict between EF and the theme or another plugin.

I would try this (on a clone of the site on your local host):

1. Disable all plugins except EF and set its priority to 18 or lower.
2. Enable the other plugins one by one, starting with Zemanta.

And/or try it also with a different theme.

This way you have a good chance to find out wether EF is really conflicting with Zemanta.

Could you post what the error message is in your screenshot above? I can’t quite make out the actual message.

Looking at the code for the Zemanta related posts plugin, they’re adding their filter to the_content with a priority of 10 (related-posts-by-zemanta/init.php line 83). Meaning you’d have to set the priority for Easy Footnotes’ filter to be 10 or less for it to show before the Zemanta related posts.

Not quite sure what it would be causing an issue with on your homepage, but if you can let me know what the error message is in the image I can get a better idea.
