Franz Because in the future I want to add the option to choose which kind of LaTeX expressions to render, like music sheets, physics diagrams, chemestry formulas and so on!

      Hi!
      Thanks a lot for this wonderful extension!
      The problem Im facing is that the CDN you selected was not available to access in my district, and I wonder how can I change the CDN after installing the extension.
      Thanks!

      what is the deference between this one and the old one

        luceos composer require flagrow/flarum-ext-latex

        and the install line stile the same

        composer require flagrow/flarum-ext-latex

            Smaily The old one is

              Hi!
              I've just tried your extension and it gives me quite strange results. For some reason, all my equations get surrounded by backticks automatically:

              I wrote:  Let $f$ be $A \exp(-kx^2)$
I got:    Let `$f$` be `$A \exp(-kx^2)$`

              Why are things going wrong? How can I get rid of this ugly grey background in my formulas?
              Package versions (core Flarum and extensions):

              flarum/core                     v0.1.0-beta.6
flagrow/upload                  0.3.2
flagrow/flarum-ext-latex        0.1.1
csi/flarum-ext-russian          0.1.0-beta.5-1

                I'm not the creator of this flarum extension, but let me tell how I feel about the situation.

                First of all, It would take a lot of effort to make a web-based WYSIWYG formula editor. Given that the target audience is quite small, it doesn't worth trying. Of course, Microsoft could afford this expenses to conquer the market, but no open-source project can.

                Fortunately, LaTeX formula markup is powerful and already familiar to lots of people, especially who came from academia where it's kind of de facto standard; there're good libraries for rendering this markup as a part of webpage. So, there is almost no reason to prefer MathType-like approach, except noob-friendliness. But noobs are not going to typeset complex formulas anyway.

                  I love this extension so much.

                  Seems it doesn't support multi-line markups, when I wrote this:

                  $$
\theta
$$

                  I get this:

                  \theta

                  I can get right result only if I wrote $$\theta$$.

                  I don't think this extension will be further maintained.

                  To other extension developers, this one is open for forking.
