So I added two different translations of the same song, different interpretations - neither mine - I went to put footnotes in both.
and they both had problems with the same footnote location. no matter what I do they aren't working. So I deleted both. Then I went back and added a shorter footnote to one - SUCCESS! YAY. OK, I'll try the second one again. pffft.
no. it still looks the same way as before - totally off. All the stuff that comes up in the footnote isn't in my footnote text: (English translation #2)
https://lyricstranslate.com/en/habalada-al-yoel-moshe-salomon-ballad-yoe... - you can see it has a load of text at footnote #5, and the footnotes aren't numbered here like they should be after the translation. Even after I deleted it and added back a shorter footnote - it still keeps going back to the previous weird thing.

you can see the first one I fixed with success is here https://lyricstranslate.com/en/hbldh-l-yvl-mshh-slvmvn-ballad-yoel-moshe...

Can someone tell me am I doing something wrong? Is there a bug or what?
Here is the source text I've written (Translation #2 - with the buggy footnote):

and near the Umm Labes1

  • 1. Petah Tikva[\fn] they took a break
    Just thicket and swamps around
    And up a little hill they climbed
    Then to inspect the grounds

    that's it..
    that's not what you see however.

    Thanks in advance! (I tried looking with a new browser at the link and it had the same issue - so I'm not sure what else to do).

Hey, there.

The problem was the slash. It must be /, not \. I edited it and it looks fine to me. Please check now.
