Larger Footnote Numbers

    Why do all the footnote plugins use such itty bitty tiny numbers that readers can barely see with the human eye? Please tell me there’s a way to make the numbers bigger. I’m not talking about the footnote text. I found your css code for that. I’m talking about the footnote numbers that are super tiny. Super tiny. Barely visible. Okay, I reckon you got my point, and I love your plugin if I can make the footnote numbers visible. Thanks.

    Hello @cmarunde ,

    Modern Footnotes itself uses the theme’s styles for the footnote numbers, so this sounds like a case where we’ll need to use custom CSS to override what’s in theme. I would recommend adding a custom style like this to the field at Settings > Modern Footnotes > Modern Footnotes Custom CSS (you can change the “14px” to be bigger, if you’d like):

    .modern-footnotes-footnote a {
    font-size: 14px !important;
}

    Best,
    Sean

    That works. Thanks for such a quick response. Here’s what I’ve done that others may like too:

    .modern-footnotes-footnote a {
    font-size: 18px !important;
}

/* make font size of footnote text bigger and change color */
.modern-footnotes-footnote__note {
    font-size: 1.0em;
    color: #F70606;
}
