How would it be possible to display the paths of fields in footers?

How would it be possible to display the paths of fields in footers? I tried with ActiveDocument.Fields.ToggleShowCodes but only the paths of fields outside footers are shown. I would then replace the paths as already successfully implemented in the main document with a path I get by running a Python script. The search and replace of the path in the footer unfortunately only works when the path is visible.
