Converter of mathematical formulas

[Egorkin]

Does anyone have experience implementing the possibility of entering mathematical formulas in the editor and converting them from a text format in messages to images by a JS library?

Maybe there are ready-made solutions for IPB?

There is a CKEditor Plugin https://ckeditor.com/cke4/addon/mathjax 

Demo: https://ckeditor.com/docs/ckeditor4/latest/examples/mathjax.html

You can install it as described here 

Probably it is something you can use.

There is also a commercial plugin https://demo.wiris.com/integrations/ckeditor/?_ga=2.109282758.2129336030.1648405326-1761670519.1648405326 that makes images

I connected Wires, the editor itself works fine, inserts formulas, but they are not parsed on the pages. Is it the same with Mathjax? Do I need to connect a parser library of this format?

Normally, you just install editor plugins, and they do what they have to do. I have not tried these plugins myself. Have you tried Wiris support?

I believe you will need to add the MathJax library to your community in order to render content created by the above MathJax CKEditor plugin  - https://www.mathjax.org/#gettingstarted

Yes, there is a connected one on the test forum. The formulas draw perfectly, but after insertion they are not parsed in messages. Also, apparently, it is necessary to connect the converter.

Yes, thanks, I'll try and share the result 🙂 Is there a similar parser for Wiris? I haven't found it yet...
