LaTeX in forum posts.

#1 · June 25, 2019, 7:44 pm

Is there a recommended plugin that supports embedding LaTeX in Asgaros forum posts?

I tried MathJax-LaTeX and WP QuickLaTeX, and whilst both work as expected with standard Wordpress posts, neither appeared to recognise Asgaros forum postings.

Thanks!

Hello @davevoorhis

Please check the following two forum-options in Forum -> Settings -> General:

Use minimalistic editor should be disabled
Allow shortcodes in posts should be enabled

Minimalistic editor was disabled, but shortcodes wasn’t enabled and I enabled it. I tried WP QuickLaTeX again, but no difference — still no LaTeX rendering.

I am using the TinyMCE Advanced plugin, in case this makes a difference.

Hello again @davevoorhis

You can check out the following latex-plugin which seems to work fine:
