I copied a short documentation using markdown. At the beginning there is a table of contents. But the links will not work. The style is like:
- [Main settings](#main-settings)
Can I reformat it to work? I didn’t found any documentation to internal links.
Or ist it a feature for future version. Perhaps easy to develop!?
Internal links aren’t currently supported but might be in a future release.
HTML works though. In some on my long notes I’ve a lil jump to bottom text.
<a href="end">End</a>
<a id="end"></a>
You might be able to work something along these lines.
Here is a complete solution for making (jumpable) footnotes:

Put this in a new note to test this solution:

Here is the css for your userstyle.css. C:\Users[User].config\joplin-desktop:
@import url('https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:300,300i,400,400i,600,600i,700,700i');
div.footnote, a:before {
border-top: solid salmon 1px;
}
/* Abstand der Fußnoten voneinander. */
div.footnote, a {
margin-bottom: 0.5em;
}
/* Damit die Fußnoten (ganz unten) nicht gelb sind beim Drüberfahren. */
div.footnote a:hover {
background-color: transparent;
}
.footnote {
margin-top: 0.5em;
padding-left: 0.5cm;
text-indent:-0.4cm;
padding-top: 0.3em;
padding-bottom: 0.3em;
font-size: 0.9em;
color: Sandybrown;
line-height: 120%;
font-family : 'Open Sans', sans-serif;
font-weight: 300;
background-color: #101010;
}
/* Optional: Fußnoten im Text sollen salmon-farbig sein und eine Klammer haben. */
sup:after {

You need a line between the text and the footnotes? Add this to your CSS:
.fussnotenstrich:before {
content: "______________________________";
color: salmon;
}
Hope that helps others. 
Thanks for this reference, but it’s a bit akward. I hope that a markdown equivalent will be provided in the future. There are slugify plugins to create automatic references to headers. It’s a nice workaround for the moment, but a markdown notation would make things a lot easier.
Yes, indeed. I also hope on a plugin or a native solution, but in the meanwhile, I have no other choice than useing this workaround.
There is a plugin for Discourse, which is also creating footnotes inside a single post, using a much simpler syntax (mostly compatible with general markdown from what I understood).
@tessus Do you think there is a possibility to adapt this to Joplin somehow?
@shilser - we are already using a footnote plugin. Have you tried that? I don’t use footnotes, but afaik that’s the syntax used.
Sorry, totally missed that one, works great
