Ghost Markdown Shortcut for Footnote

[Kevin]

Universal footnotes are not an easy thing to support, as has been covered on the forum previously

Koenig Editor - Beta Release

This is a larger task than it might seem at first. Each markdown card is rendered with it’s own markdown-it instance and has no references to the overall mobiledoc/Koenig renderer or other markdown cards so there’s no way to co-ordinate footnotes across cards. There would need be some form of architecture put in place for handling footnotes within a mobiledoc renderer instance that can be hooked into from disparate renderers used within cards. TL;DR; don’t expect support any time soon, sorry.

There are workarounds available such as using markdown-only in posts where you need footnotes, or by manually linking footnotes up using the formatting tools available in the rich-text editor.
