LiquidFractal Posted May 4, 2016 Posted May 4, 2016 I bumped a topic in "IPB 3.4 and below" about this before realizing it was a few years old...sorry Anyway....I have a research-oriented site and would love LOVE it if there were some way to create footnotes in database articles and pages, via BBCode or some other way, in a way similar to what you can now get natively in MediaWiki. That would pretty much make IPB my one-stop research tool!
opentype Posted May 4, 2016 Posted May 4, 2016 That can be achieved with CKeditor plugins. Here is an article from my 4.1 site using footnotes. Automatic counting, automatic links and back links. The typical stuff.
LiquidFractal Posted May 4, 2016 Author Posted May 4, 2016 Excellent! I Googled CKeditor footnotes and arrived at this website: http://ckeditor.com/addon/footnotes I assume this is what you mean? Your website example is exactly what I'm looking for. And I'll start looking on my AdminCP, but do you know if there's a way to find out what version of CKeditor one's version of IPB is using? Thanks opentype!
Nathan Explosion Posted May 4, 2016 Posted May 4, 2016 The version of ckeditor can always be checked by referring to the credits.txt file in the root of your installation. Currently 4.1.11 uses CKEditor 4.5.8
