Flowing text EPub question

I placed an entire document into InDesign from Word. Everything looks good except for the paragraph spacing which I will have to re edit the css which I know already. But I have a situation which I do not know how to correct as the .indd will be a flowing text .epub and at the bottom of most pages are footnotes with links. In the word document the paragraphs end at a certain place and I understand that since this is a flowing text .epub the text will not be ending in the same place the word doc did but after looking closely the threaded text goes from page to page but the footnotes remain in the same place zt the bottom of the page.

I checked the layers and both the footnotes and main paragraphs are on the same layer. Is there a way to get the footnotes to end where the last paragraph ends like in the word doc?

see screenshot of the .indd file the RED text I added in to show that it does not sit BEFORE the footnote as that text skips the footnote and rejoins the thread AFER the footnote, any help?

In the fluid Epub export options, you must select the option:
Footnotes: Placement: end of de section (endnotes).

And always remember to work with your own styles from InDesign.
