Wagtail Footnotes

PyPI PyPI downloads Build Status

Add footnotes functionality to your Wagtail project.

⚡ Quick start

Add wagtail_footnotes to INSTALLED_APPS:

# settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    # ...
    "wagtail_footnotes",
    # ...
]

Add the footnotes urls.py to your project's urls.py:

# urls.py
# ...
from wagtail_footnotes import urls as footnotes_urls


urlpatterns = [
    # ...
    path("footnotes/", include(footnotes_urls)),
    # ...
]

Note: The URL has to be defined as above as it is currently hardcoded in the JavaScript.

Update your page models to show the footnotes panel:

from wagtail.models import Page
from wagtail.admin.panels import InlinePanel


class InformationPage(Page):
    # ...
    content_panels = [
        # ...
        InlinePanel("footnotes", label="Footnotes"),
    ]

Make and run migrations:

python manage.py makemigrations
python manage.py migrate

Showing footnotes in page templates

Update your page templates to include {% include "wagtail_footnotes/includes/footnotes.html" %}. You can copy from this template and instead include your own customized version.

Using footnotes in RichTextField

Update any RichTextFields that you want to add footnotes feature. Add "footnotes" to the features argument for each RichTextField that you want to have this functionality. For instance:

class InformationPage(Page):
    body = RichTextField(
        features=[
            "h1",
            "h2",
            "h3",
            "h4",
            "footnotes",  # Make sure this line is part of the features
        ],
    )

See Wagtail's documentation for a list of features that you may want to configure since we are overwriting the defaults.

Using footnotes in StreamFields

In order to have footnotes available in a RichTextBlock, you will need to change RichTextBlocks to wagtail_footnotes.blocks.RichTextBlockWithFootnotes. For instance:

from wagtail_footnotes.blocks import RichTextBlockWithFootnotes
# ...

class MyPage(Page):
    body = StreamField(
        [
            # ...
            ("paragraph", RichTextBlockWithFootnotes()),  # Using RichTextBlockWithFootnotes
            # ...
        ],
    )

Adding footnotes as a global default

You might want to simply have all RichText editors display footnotes. But remember that you will need the footnotes InlinePanel added on all your Page models for the footnotes functionality to be enabled.

# settings.py
# ...
WAGTAILADMIN_RICH_TEXT_EDITORS = {
    "default": {
        "WIDGET": "wagtail.admin.rich_text.DraftailRichTextArea",
        "OPTIONS": {"features": ["bold", "italic", "h3", "h4", "ol", "ul", "link", "footnotes"]},
    }
}

⚙️ Settings

  • WAGTAIL_FOOTNOTES_TEXT_FEATURES
    • Default: ["bold", "italic", "link"]
    • Use this to update a list of Rich Text features allowed in the footnote text.

💡 Common issues

  • I click on the Fn button in the editor and it stops working
    • This is likely because the URL in the JS does not match the URL of the footnotes view. Check the URL in wagtail_footnotes/static/footnotes/js/footnotes.js matches the URL you set.
  • NoneType error when rendering page.
    • Make sure you are rendering the field in the template using {% include_block page.field_name %}
