footnotestitlestitling
I wonder what besides \thanks can be used for author's footnote.
The problem is that when I have two different titles with two different authors and two different \thanks, the second footnote shows both of them.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{titling}
\begin{document}
\title{title1}
\author{someone1 \thanks{hi@email.com}}
\maketitle
\newpage
\title{title2}
\author{someone2 \thanks{bye@email.com}}
\maketitle
\end{document}
Footnotes within minipage environments are printed with small letters. The definition in latex.ltx is
\def\thempfootnote{{\itshape\@alph\c@mpfootnote}}
You could redefine it. A quick way would be:
\let\thempfootnote\thefootnote
Afterwards the footnote symbols within a minipage will be an arabic number as well.
The dual title in twocolumn mode causes the page breaks. Perhaps you'd just be interested in setting the title manually. Below I've taken the \maketitle constructions from the titling package code:
\documentclass[twocolumn]{article}
\usepackage{lipsum}% Just for this example
\begin{document}
\twocolumn[{
\begin{center}
\LARGE First title
\end{center}
\vskip 2em
\begin{center}
\large \lineskip .75em%
\begin{tabular}[t]{c}
Author1, Author2
\end{tabular}\par
\end{center}
\begin{center}
\large \today
\end{center}
\vspace{2\baselineskip}
\begin{center}
\LARGE Second title
\end{center}
\vskip 2em
\begin{center}
\large \lineskip .75em%
\begin{tabular}[t]{c}
Author1, Author2
\end{tabular}\par
\end{center}
\begin{center}
\large \today
\end{center}
}]
\lipsum[1-5]
\end{document}
You can now adjust the spacing and font to your liking.
