  • The plugin does not provide any syntax documentation

    I instaled and tried to use this plugin. I visits all provided urls by searching the documetation on how can i use the math formulas into the inline syntax that the plugin requires. Unfortunatelly i did not find anything usefull for a simple user, only for developers.

  • Excellent

    It is an excellent plugin. I have been using it for 2 years and it has worked well for me. It had some bugs related to amp, for example, some arrays weren't displaying properly but with this update, everything seems to be fixed. In good time they updated it. Thank you!!

  • Top !

    The best way I have found to write math formulas on the web. I just need to remember the LaTex syntax I haven't used in 15 years!

  • Good but a little too greedy

    Really too greedy the MathJax js files are loaded everywhere, even outside the editor and pages, it makes the website too heavy, but it is very clean visually and very simple certainly one of the easiest to use!
