Extension:Math

Math extension provides support for rendering mathematical formulas on-wiki via texvc. It was a part of the core MediaWiki software until MediaWiki 1.18, r85706. See also the related bug, bug #14202 on Bugzilla.

Installation

 * 1) Compile texvc ( Don't have permission to compile code in your environment? read the see also section below )
 * 2) Add the following to LocalSettings.php:
 * 3) you might also have to add
 * 4) Run update.php as you would if you were upgrading:
 * 5) Installation can now be verified through your wiki's Special:Version page

Configuration settings
The following variables can be defined in LocalSettings.php after calling require_once("$IP/extensions/Math/Math.php"):

MathJax
From 1.19/1.20, the Math extension supports rendering via MathJax, a client-side JavaScript library for parsing latex or mathml code and producing in-browser representation using the browser's native support for HTML+CSS, or MathML, or SVG.

This provides math renderings that can render sharper (using subpixel antialiasing) and larger (scaling up for zoomed view, printing, or high-resolution screens).

Set $wgUseMathJax to enable MathJax rendering mode; it is still somewhat experimental. For now, users will have to opt in to MathJax on their preferences. In the future we hope to make it the default rendering mode.
