# Reference list does not aggregate fully

 * When I use the modern footnotes inside a [Lighweight Accordion](https://wordpress.org/plugins/lightweight-accordion/)
   unit that footnote/ref does not get added to the general ‘References and footnotes’
   list at the bottom of my page. Ultimately, that wouldn’t be a problem for me.
   However, the numbering in the reference list gets out of sync (as it keeps its
   own +1 count I guess).
   The presented numbering continues within the accordion
   inset. But I have noticed the keys of the mfn elements (data-mfn attribute) start
   at 1 inside the accordion. I suspect this causes the element doesn’t get picked
   up for the reference list. Or that something else in the html markup makes it
   impossible for the mfn to get picked up. I am not very familiar how the collection
   of [mfn] gets filtered out of the article content.
 * I can’t figure out how to solve this. Any thoughts?
   PS. I like this plugin as
   it does exactly what I need and isn’t much of a distraction in the page.

 * Have resolved this myself. The behaviour had nothing to do with the modern footnotes
   plugin but was caused by a (wrong) way of using json for the accordion instead
   of the shortcode.
