My issue is the following: enter image description here The footnote gets placed inside the box. However, I want it to be placed and numbered like a normal footnote. How can that be made possible?

I provided an MWE for my specific design:

\documentclass{scrbook}

\usepackage{mdframed} \usepackage{amsthm} \usepackage[nopar]{kantlipsum}

\newtheorem{theorem}{Definition} \newenvironment{ltheorem} {\begin{mdframed}[topline=false,rightline=false,bottomline=false] \hspace*{-\parindent}% \rlap{\smash{\colorbox{white}{\strut\hspace{\parindent}}}}% \begin{theorem}} {\end{theorem}\end{mdframed}}

\begin{document}

\begin{ltheorem}[\textbf{Theorem}]
    \kant[1]\footnote{\kant[2]}
\end{ltheorem}

\end{document}

If you want a page-global footnote, you:

  1. issue a \footnotemark in the place where you want the mark to be, and
  2. issue a \footnotetext{whatever} at the page level.

Here:

\begin{document}
\begin{ltheorem}[\textbf{Theorem}]
    \kant[1]\footnotemark
\end{ltheorem}

la la la la \footnotetext{\kant[2]}

\end{document}

If you need more than one footnote, the thing get more complex; you can see for example How to make multiple \footnotemark and \footnotetext match?
