Endnote renumbering
I need to insert a few references into a chapter as endnotes into a final draft. I do not want to re-number each reference and endnote by hand as a result of the new insertion each time I add one. Is there a Sigil code or other approach to use to reorder the numbering of the endnotes in both the text and the endnote such as is found in Word or other word processors?

This is why Sigil belongs at the end of the process. When you are creating from scratch, it is better to use the power of the word processors to do this sort of thing, as well as index creation, etc.

Sadly, as everyone mentioned, the only way you can currently do this is "by hand". Feel free to PM me the EPUB, and I can see what I can do with the code on my end.
This is a problem I ran into many months ago, and I made myself a custom program to handle it. (it is hideous code and buggy (I have to pre-clean the code before I feed it in) and I would rather not let people see the horror. ) It reads in an HTML file, and starts counting from 1. Every <sup>###</sup> it hits, it generates a pointer link: Code:
<a href="#fn1" id="ft1">[1]</a> Once my code hits an "<hr />" (Which I use at the end of every HTML file to denote a footnote section). It starts iterating from 1 again, and every <sup>###</sup> it hits, it replaces it with the opposite link: Code:
<a href="#ft1" id="fn1">[1]</a> Last edited by Tex2002ans; 11-01-2013 at 04:49 PM. |

Thanks all!
I managed to creatively append most of the inserts to the end of the endnotes set so I didn't have to tear it up. I still have a few left and going by hand is prone to err. I look forward to a remedy. |
