 * 5 months and no reply from the dev. Can I ask what you used as a replacement 
   for this plugin? I’m trying to upgrade to PHP 7 and have also found this error.

 * It would be great if there were an update to Simple Footnotes.

 * Adding on here.
 * This plugin is intrinsic to my site. Replacing it would be a huge headache.
 * Hoping (a) the developer responds to this issue or (b) someone forks the project.

 * Thanks Aldo. I won’t be able to try this until Saturday, but hope that it works.
 * Are you a maintainer, and will this fix be rolled into a future release?

 * I am not a maintainer of this plugin.
 * Just today I saw this notice and I wanted to contact the author, but it seems
   that the plugin author is not currently active. So, I edited the plugin and shared
   the solution with you all.
