Add Footnotes to Your Pages/Posts

Footnotes1 are added by using a “short-code” that you type in-line in your text. You’ll see the short code when you’re editing your post, but then when it’s published, you’ll only see the footnote.

To add a footnote:

  • While editing your post, click your cursor to the place where you want to insert your footnote.
  • Begin the short code by typing the open square bracket: “[“
  • Next type the number for your note: “1.”
  • Type the text of your note: “Jules Verne, Journey to the Center of the Earth (New York: Signet, 2003), 34-40.”
  • Type the close square bracket: “]”
  1. Jules Verne, Journey to the Center of the Earth (New York: Signet, 2003), 34-40.
