 * My footnotes are now appearing inside the post, they would normally open when
   someone clicks on the footnote number, but now weirdly appear in the middle of
   the post. hoping there is a solution as i use this plugin widely across a number
   of sites and it’ll be mammoth to fix or change. I’ve attached screen shot below,
   i have excluded JavaScript from minification, etc etc

 * Hi [@jasongb71](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jasongb71/) ,
 * I don’t see the UX issue that you describe, but I do see that the footnote links
   are not working when you click on them. I also see this JavaScript error:
 * Uncaught ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined
 * Looking through the JavaScript loading on the page, it looks jQuery is being 
   lazy loaded in after the Modern Footnotes JavaScript is loading. I assume there
   is some sort of page speed plugin you are using to change how JavaScript loads
   by default. Can you change it so jQuery is not lazy loaded, or so that the Modern
   Footnotes JS is also lazy loaded? (Either way should get the Modern Footnotes
   JS loading after jQuery)
 * Best,
   Sean
