Page Layout ⇒ Force footnotes to appear in bibliography?

[pgoyal]

I have written a scientific paper containing footnotes which appear (as normal) at the bottom of each page. Is there some way to automatically force the footnotes to appear in the bibliography, interleaved with the citations? Or must this be done by hand?

I have looked at the footnote packages ("footnote", "footmisc"), but cannot see this functionality. I have also considered turning the footnotes into endnotes (via the "endnote" package), but this won't satisfy the journal editors.

I am using a latex template from the online publisher MDPI, which seems to be a simple modification of the standard "article" template.

Many thanks in advance for your help!

By using biblatex and creating the right entries, you can do the footcite command, a citation as a footnote, which will appear in your bibliography.
