citation feature?

[Stupidism]

I guess it will be just like link but with superscript in richtext.

Like the references panel in wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedera#cite_note-WT-6

The same scenario also requires this

@denolfe Any ideas? Thanks!

I would try to do this using the custom link fields feature and add a field type: 'checkbox' for "citation". Then in your frontend you can loop all the "citation" links from your JSON and render them out in the page footer.

Alternatively, you could extend your richtext editor to give it it's own toolbar action from links. This would be nicer UX, but then you have to copy and then maintain your own implementation that is essentially a copy of the built-in richtext link feature that Payload already has.

Ideally your frontend app is also resposible for maintaing the numbering of the citations so that editors don't have cascade their updates throughout a large document if they add/remove a citation early in a document.

What do you think?
