About Footnotes in Markdown

· 1 min · markdown / footnote

By default, Astro adds an h2 heading called “Footnotes” when you use footnotes in Markdown/MDX. To remove it, you can update the generateToc like this:

src/utils/toc.ts
export function generateToc(
  headings: readonly MarkdownHeading[],
  minHeadingLevel: HeadingLevel,
  maxHeadingLevel: HeadingLevel
) {
  ...
  const bodyHeadings = headings.filter(
    ({ depth }) => depth >= minHeadingLevel && depth <= maxHeadingLevel
    ({ depth , text}) => depth >= minHeadingLevel && depth <= maxHeadingLevel && text !== 'Footnotes'
  )
  ...
}

Or modify it to suit your needs.
