latex - Why is hyperref package causing an issue with \footnotemark?

Question

I had recently posted a question seeking help for linking a glossary in a specific way and it was resolved, thanks to @samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz for helping me out. url to the post

Now, going ahead with the suggestions, I make use of \hyperref package in my project and that is causing an issue with the use of \footnotemark[]. I have attached the screenshots below along with a MWE.

Screenshots :

With the hyperref package I get the error :

Without the hyperref package I get the output with no errors :

MWE :

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}  % Input encoding (this file): 8 bit unicode. Default by most text editors
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}     % Output encoding (pdf file)
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% Packages used in the example
\usepackage[dvipsnames]{xcolor}
\usepackage{graphicx}   % Included graphics and some resizable boxes
\usepackage{url}        % nice urls with line breaks
\usepackage{lipsum}     % nonsense text blocks
\usepackage{float}
\usepackage{subcaption}
\usepackage{multicol}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{amsmath}
 \usepackage{biblatex}
\usepackage{pgfplots}
\usepackage{tikz}

\usepackage[nonumberlist,acronym,
entrycounter=true
]{glossaries}

\makeglossaries
\newglossaryentry{vp}
{
    name= Verification Plan,
    description={A verification plan is a list of the procedures and methods to be used for verification}
}
\newacronym{ml}{ML}{Machine Learning}

%%UNCOMMENT THIS AND THERE IS AN ERROR WITH GLOSSARY
%\usepackage{hyperref}
%\hypersetup{
%    citecolor=black,
%    colorlinks=false, %set true if you want colored links
%    linktoc=all,     %set to all if you want both sections and subsections linked
%    linkcolor=black,  %choose some color if you want links to stand out
%}

\begin{document}

%\glsaddall
\setglossarystyle{altlist}
\printglossary
\printglossary[type=\acronymtype]

------

  \textbf{Develop}: The develop phase includes \gls{vp}\footnotemark[\glsrefentry{vp}], creating verification environment, testbench and test case development. \acrfull{ml}


\end{document}

So in short, I want to have my glossary hyperlinked along with referencing it by using \footnotemark[\glsrefentry....].

Any solution/advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

With hyperref, the \glsrefentry{...} macro is a link to your list of acronyms, which conflicts with using it as a footnotemark. You can use e.g. \textsuperscript{...} as a workaround:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}  % Input encoding (this file): 8 bit unicode. Default by most text editors
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}     % Output encoding (pdf file)

\usepackage[dvipsnames]{xcolor}
\usepackage{graphicx}   % Included graphics and some resizable boxes
\usepackage{url}        % nice urls with line breaks

\usepackage{float}
\usepackage{subcaption}
\usepackage{multicol}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{amsmath}
