Creating footnotes and superscripts for citations in storymaps

Question

Hello,

I'm looking to create in-text superscript citations to then reference in a footer at the end of my storymap. In the footer, these will link to external URLs. Embedding the links is not a problem, but I can't figure out how to format superscript text into my storymap narrative.

I found an example of exactly what I want to accomplish online, created by an ESRI storymap expert:

https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/f4cf9458cfaf4b43b62107b7c1961595

But I see no guidance as to how to create superscripts in your own storymap. What am I missing?

Many thanks,

Sam

To be honest, he didn't solve my problem. Later, I found a new superscript generator[https://superscriptgenerator.net], which supports generating superscripts for any custom letters.

I will add that I have not tested switching themes/typefaces after adding new superscript characters this way, so they may or may not persist.  Probably will want to test or have @OwenGeo weigh in before incorporating too many in case they are not supported by some Google Fonts?

Hi Sam (and anyone else stumbling on this question),

I'm not sure how this differs from copying and pasting a superscript character from Word, but l have successfully added them to a StoryMap using https://lingojam.com/SuperscriptGenerator .  If you have found a better solution, I'd be interested to hear.

Hope this helps,
Derek
