Footnote Box Size/Design

    Hi gavinr, I really like this plugin, it covers my footnote needs almost perfectly. However, one problem remains:

    The size of the footnote number box is so big that it touches the text if you do not leave a blank space between the text and the footnote. So you put in a blank space. But then you decide to use justified composition – and then the footnote number box appears way too far away from the text in some places. Both ways it does not look good.

    Here is the link to my site (german) with examples for both: https://wiesoeigentlich.de/co2-emissionen/
    Footnote 1-6 are with blank space, 7+ are without blank space.

    I wish the footnote number box would appear a tiny bit smaller (or with a little transparent border to the left?) so it could fit directly beside the text without touching it, and I do not have to worry about the justified composition.

    Best Regards

    try adding this css to your theme style.css:

    .inline-footnote {margin: -5px 5px 0px !important;}

    Hope this helps!

    Thanks a lot, Sir! This works perfectly. I changed it to

    .inline-footnote {margin: -2px 2px 0px !important;}

    though, because 2px is enough in my opinion. The box doesn’t touch the text now anymore, it is perfect.

    Thanks a lot for your support! Donation is done ??
