Thank you for the suggestion but unfortunately I really need to put a footnote
without a symbol or anything. I am trying to use Lyx for my thesis. Our
college requires that if any of the chapters has already appeared as a
publication that we need to list it on the first page of the chapter as a
footnote. This is why I just want put a footnote at the bottom without having
it attached to a symbol in the main body.

Hi,
Is there a way to enter footnote without the automatic numbering? I think I
saw something in the archives but it was for Lyx version 1.1.6 and the
explanation was a little confusing. Thank you.
Quick dirty trick:
After the last complete paragraph on that page, insert a vfill
and then your "footnote" text using the font size "smaller" (same size
as actual footnotes). The vertical fill (vertical spacing of the
fill variety) will eat up any white space making sure the
text gets to the bottom of the page.
It is a quick trick only, as it won't work well if you ever
add stuff in front of it. But I guess you won't do that, if the
chapter in question is a copy of something already published?
