Disable on single category

Hello @skariko

I’m not sure if you mean disabling footnotes in certain categories or within archive pages. Because if you don’t want them in certain posts, you wouldn’t add footnotes to those particular posts. But if you meant disabling footnotes on archives, then that’s very much possible. Below is a screenshot of the plugin’s settings page showing the various places you can suppress footnotes if you wanted to. If you meant something else, please provide more information and I’ll be happy to help.

hi Patrick and thank you in the meantime for your response.

The problem is related to a single post where I would need to write and display some PHP code which, unfortunately, has (( and )) inside it. On the whole site I have already used (( )) many times for footnotes so I cannot change the begin and end of the footnotes.

For this reason I was wondering if it would be possible to exclude Footnotes from a single article or possibly a single category so I could solve this problem.

Alternatively I was also thinking of trying to have it exclude the inside of “<code>” but I couldn’t.

Any other workarounds are welcome.

Thanks!

Hello @skariko,

That’s understandable.

It is clear now.

I have added this as an issue on GitHub. This is a feature we can add to the plugin in future releases.

Thank you so much for explaining it further.

Another thing…

If it is the first time you are adding footnotes, you could instead of using (()), you could use something like ++++ so that you end up with something like this:

This is a sentence with a footnote ++and this is a footnote++ added to the post.

You can change how you beggin and end your footnotes from the settings page. If you have several pages with footnotes, then I guess this option may not be a ggod one.

Thanks.

yes I know thank you, unfortunately I’ve been using Footnotes for a long time so I can’t change now (( )) to other symbols!

I can definitely purposely misspell the PHP code so I don’t have the problem, for example writing ( ( but it seemed fair to point it out!

Thanks!

No worries. I’ll leave this open until the guthub issue related to this is closed.

Thanks.
