I created a travel note and added a to-do task within it. I inserted footnotes into the to-do task, then switched to preview mode. In preview mode, the footnote markers for the task display abnormally—only showing numbers without clickable hyperlinks. However, footnotes inserted into non-task content do not have this issue. This problem only occurs in preview mode; when exported to PDF, everything works correctly.

My apologies, this should be a help-related question. I didn’t post in the correct section. Thank you for your help.
All good. Hopefully someone can have a look.
What’s the lined background? Is this from a theme?
The more info about your setup you can share, the easier it will be for folks to help.
According to your suggestion, I tried disabling the Task plugin, and the issue disappeared. It is confirmed that the problem is caused by the Task plugin, not Obsidian itself. The lined background is a CSS effect added to enhance the reading experience, and the theme I’m using is Minimal.
Hello, same problem for me. I use the default theme, and I confirm the problem is caused by Tasks plugin.
