Believe me I tried, I am now convinced more than ever that I am not much of a coder. I even tried to cobble something together using other plugins based on JC Editor, but no Joy :(

Good idea. I can give it a go at some point, but it won’t be anytime soon as I’m pretty busy. If you’d like to try, I’d be happy to integrate the code and give you credit.

Great plugin! would it be possible for you to add a button for editors where you could simply highlight the text you want to footnote, then click the button and the {footnote} {/footnote} would be inserted? Sort of like you see with the page break or read more buttons. Would really speed things up!

Thanks!

Found the solution!!!!

1. Open Word doc and copy
2. Open Google docs and paste using Command+V
3. Edit html code and delete width, press Update
4. Copy Google doc and paste it in Joomla

Nope. Word is finicky. Sometimes footnotes copy out correctly, sometimes they don’t. You could try different editors (FCK editor vs. TinyMCE editor vs. other) as they may clean the incoming HTML differently. Joomla! allows you to change the editors via the plugins.

Simple Footnotes definitely won’t do it. It’s designed to easily create footnotes in documents–not import them!

Do you happen to know how I can accomplish that without doing it manually?

This extension does not preserve endnotes and footnotes from word. You will have to put those in manually in the correct spot using the syntax described above.

Hi,
I have been trying to copy some word documents with endnote & footnotes into Joomla 1.5 but if I take out the formatting from word (clear format) the document width goes all over. If I do it through Text Edit, it looses the footnotes & end notes.

Is your extension going to be able to solve that without manually having to correct it?
