I have tried ‘\resetcounter [footnote]’ (a suggested solution on that

‘\setupcounter [footnote] [0]’ (also suggested on that web page) is
rejected as an error.
Can you post a minimal example. Because the following works in MKII
(counter reset at each chapter)
\setupfootnotes[way=bychapter]
\starttext
\dorecurse{5}
{\chapter{New Chapter}
\dorecurse{5}{\input ward\footnote{A quote by ward}}}
\stoptext
The following also works with the counter reset at each section:
\setupfootnotes[way=bysection]
\starttext
\dorecurse{5}
{\section{New Chapter}
\dorecurse{5}{\input ward\footnote{A quote by ward}}}
\stoptext
and the following works with the footnote reset at each page:
\setupfootnotes[way=bypage]
\starttext
\dorecurse{5}
{\section{New Chapter}
\dorecurse{5}{\input ward\footnote{A quote by ward}}}
\stoptext
All examples were run using:
ConTeXt ver: 2018.04.04 00:51 MKII fmt: 2018.7.3 int: english/english
and the documents were compiled using
texexec --xetex filename
