I would like footnote numbering to continue over pages and chapters. In my document it's reset every chapter. I'm using the report documentclass.

Use \counterwithout
.
\documentclass{report}
\counterwithout{footnote}{chapter}
\begin{document}
\chapter{foo}
Some text.\footnote{The first footnote.}
\chapter{bar}
Some text.\footnote{The second footnote.}
\end{document}

13In a current LaTeX (not older than 2018-04-01),
\counterwithout
is part of the kernel, so the\usepackage{chngcntr}
is not needed any more. See latex-project.org/news/latex2e-news/ltnews28.pdf– moeweJan 11, 2019 at 15:33 -
This did not work in my case... I am using University of Chicago's ETD document class from here: github.com/mvzink/ucetd-latex Mar 2, 2020 at 17:25

If you use
\counterwithout
with current LaTeX, avoid loadingchngcntr
package, because it messes up numbers of references to figures.– mmjMar 9, 2020 at 16:37
