I'm very new to Typst and enjoying the relative ease as creating and editing templates, but I'm stuck trying to get footnotes to work correctly for an article template I'm creating. I've been modifying this template to add things like equal contribution footnotes and noticed that the numbering in the footnotes don't match numbering in the text. I suspect it's a scoping issue related to the for loop that cycles through all authors , but I'm not sure how to fix that issue. This issue persists in the rest of the document as well (see page 2) One thought I had was to try and create a footnote numbering system that only provides one option, but while I could get that to work outside of a footnote call, it seems like the The document can be found here Thanks! |

Late reply, but you seem to be confusing the footnote number with the footnote numbering. The numbering only defines how a number should be displayed and does not contain any information about the number itself. For example, the numbering You have this at the top of your template. #show footnote.entry: it => [
#set par(hanging-indent: 0.7em)
#set align(left)
#it.note.numbering #it.note.body
]By using only The problem you have at the end of the document with the "fifth footnote" is that |

Thank you very much for the explanation, and not a problem about the late reply - I've been away for the last month, so it wasn't a delay from my end! I updated it to use the below, but ran into a different issue that all the numbers of the footnotes were the same (though they showed the correct bodies) i.e., #show footnote.entry: it => [
#set par(hanging-indent: 0.7em)
#set align(left)
#counter(footnote).display(it.note.numbering) #it.note.body
]produced
Using #show footnote.entry: it => [
#set par(hanging-indent: 0.7em)
#set align(left)
#context counter(footnote).get() counter(footnote).display(it.note.numbering) #it.note.body
]produced
The solution (I believe) is to simply use #show footnote.entry: it => [
#set par(hanging-indent: 0.7em)
#set align(left)
#it
]
Though, if this is incorrect and will cause an issue I haven't come across yet, please do point it out! Thanks for the help. |

Yes, you're right, that was a mistake on my side. The counter is stepped when the footnote is placed in the text and the entries are placed afterwards. When the entries are placed, the counter has already reached the final number. It should have been #numbering(it.note.numbering, ..counter(footnote).at(it.note.location()))to get the correct number. What you have now done is also correct (with the difference that the other solution would not have used superscripts for the footnote number), though it would be more idiomatic to use show-set rules #show footnote.entry: set par(hanging-indent: 0.7em)
#show footnote.entry: set align(left) |

Thanks for the update. That's exactly what I was hoping to do. |

Using
.get()shows that for some reason, the same counter number is being reused for all the footnotes i.e.,
