I am using Biblatex, Biber backend, and autocite for all of my references. I found this question (Biblatex: footnote citations. Two references to footnote in same slide), but it was never answered and didn't seem to be asking the exact question I want answered
I want to be able to refer to a footnote by its number. The code I tried looked like this:
What I am talking about.\autocite[\label{bar}Pre-note][Post note][foo2000]
As you see in footnote \ref{bar}, that thing is great.
The output would look like:
That thing I am talking about.1
As you see in footnote 1, that thing is great.
1 Pre-note von Foobar, A. 2000. Journal of Spam. Post note
fIt is possible to get something like that, using
\footnote{\label{bar} \autocite{foo2000}}
but it creates a whole host of formatting problems down the road.
EDIT: Here is the non-working code EDIT2: Fixed the non-standard reference, and added babel
\begin{filecontents}{testbib.bib}
@book{CITE,
title = {Book's title},
author = {Author, Some},
location = {The City},
publisher = {Publisher},
date = {2005},
}
\end{filecontents}
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[backend=biber,autocite=footnote, notes]{biblatex-chicago}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\newcommand{\activeref}[1]{\phantomsection\label{#1}}
\addbibresource{testbib.bib} %Adds the Bibliography File
\begin{document}
Some text.\autocite[][]{CITE}
Some text.\autocite[\label{label1}][]{CITE}
That was right, see footnote \ref{label1}.
\end{document}
