If a node has multiple fields attached to it, you can use footnotes in several places on the node. By default, Footnotes adds a list of footnotes at the end of each field. Is there anyway to combine this list, so it solely appears at the end of the node.

Example:

If have fields called Body Text and Info. By default Footnotes works like this:

Body Text: The ancient South Island1 holds many mystical treasures. Some of these can be used for advanced weapons2.
Footnotes List:
1. Located in the Southern Seas
2. Such as laser beams.

Info: South Island is a most mystical island1. 
Footnotes List:
1. Other mystical islands exist.

I would like Footnotes to work like this:

Body Text: The ancient South Island1 holds many mystical treasures. Some of these can be used for advanced weapons2.
Info: South Island is a most mystical island3. 
Footnotes List:
1. Located in the Southern Seas
2. Such as laser beams.
3. Other mystical islands exist.

Is something like this at all possible?

Hi

As Footnotes is implemented as a filter, this is unfortunately not possible. A filter just receives a piece of text and outputs another piece of text. There is no knowledge of the text being part of a node, field or anything.

This is a duplicate of #113944: Output footnotes at the end of the node, not the end of the field they are for

Thanks for the reply! Perhaps you could consider changing the title of 113944. I would imagine that the issue I have would be quite a common use case, but the title of 113944 doesn't seem like it would apply the issue. (just a suggestion!)
