authblkfontsfootnotestitles
I want to change the font to sans-serif of the footnote mark (or the \thanks mark) after the author's name. How do I achieve that? I can change the author's name and the footnote text using \textsf.
\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{newcomputermodern}
\usepackage{authblk}
\title{Title}
\author{\textsf{Name}\thanks{\textsf{Footnote}}}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\end{document}
Also remember that in MkIV it's not
\setupfootnotes[textstyle=normal, textcommand=\tf]
but
\setupnotation[footnote][textstyle=normal, textcommand=\tf]
I'm using the following now to achieve non-superscript numbers
\setupnotation[footnote][way=bypage,numbercommand=\tf]
As soon as the current KOMA-Script version (3.11b) is updated, the following addition to your preamble should suffice:
\setkomafont{author}{\sffamily}
With version 3.11b, one may use the xpatch package to add \sffamily to the code responsible for typesetting the author names.
\documentclass[a4paper]{scrartcl}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont[Ligatures={Common,TeX}]{Minion Pro}
\setsansfont{Myriad Pro}
\setmonofont[Scale=0.8]{Consolas}
\usepackage{xpatch}
\makeatletter
\xpatchcmd{\maketitle}{% with the `titlepage` class option
\@author
}{%
\sffamily\@author
}{}{}
\xpatchcmd{\@maketitle}{% without the `titlepage` class optipn
\@author
}{%
\sffamily\@author
}{}{}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\title{Document Title}
\author{Author Name}
\date{}
\maketitle
\end{document}

The following should do what you desire.
The difference is very subtle though.
