Footnote: Allow insertion of the footnote block in templates #52554

Description

What problem does this address?

Inserting a footnote defaults to creating a footnote block at the end of the post. On some sites, the footnotes might need a heading that says Reference or Bibliography etc.

What is your proposed solution?

Allow automatic insertion of the footnote blocks at specific positions in a template or to be used in synced patterns like the Table of Content block. This allows customisations for headings and the footnote text that is consistent across the site.

Headings and text customisations could further be implemented in the block settings by allowing:

  1. Custom heading for the footnote block
  2. Global styles for the footnote block
