Cap'n Refsmmat Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Today I've upgraded the mathematics support on the SFN Blogs. We now use MathJax to display nicely-typeset equations directly in the browser, rather than generating fuzzy images which didn't always match with your blog themes. The MathJax output should look much, much nicer, and fits in with the surrounding text much better. Your previous equations should already work perfectly with MathJax. In future posts, you can take advantage of new features, like using the LaTeX syntax for display equations: \[ x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \] to get display-size nicely-typeset equations. For mathematics within a paragraph, you can still use the $latex x^2$ syntax you're used to, or LaTeX-style \( x^2 \) syntax. Let me know if you encounter any problems. (Incidentally, these changes will soon be making their way to SFN!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cap'n Refsmmat Posted December 31, 2012 Author Share Posted December 31, 2012 I may be forced to go this route soon, just to make the LaTeX BBCode function at all. Apparently IPS is phasing out BBCode in favor of a pure WYSIWYG system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
