Usage

Enable the extension.

Block Expressions

Wrap your TeX code with [math] and [/math] or your custom delimiters.

[math]\int_{-\infty}^\infty\hat\xi\,e^{2\pi i\xi x}\,d\xi[/math]

Block expressions will be wrapped with .mathren-block class.

Inline Expressions

Wrap your TeX code with [imath] and [/imath] or your custom delimiters.

Lorem ipsum dolor [imath]\varDelta = b^2-4ac[/imath] sit amet.

Inline expressions will be wrapped with .mathren-inline class.

Ignoring Expressions

If you're willing to show the TeX code with delimiters, there are three options:

  1. Wrap your expression with `backticks` or code tag.
  • You must set it as an ignored tag from the settings page.
  1. Wrap your expression with an ignored class.
  • You can set ignored classes from the settings page.
  1. Use a decisive keyword with your expressions.
  • The keyword is ignore by default. But you can change it or assign multiple keywords from the settings page. You must write one of those keywords inside a BBCode (i.e. [math=keyword]x^3[/math]).

.mathren-ignore class will be added into ignored expression's wrapper by default. But you can change it from the settings page.
