Insert formulas & graphics in the posts and comments using native LaTeX shorthands directly in the text. Inline formulas, displayed equations auto-numbering, labeling and referencing, AMS-LaTeX, TikZ, custom LaTeX preamble. No LaTeX installation required. Easily customizable using UI page. Actively developed and maintained. Visit QuickLaTeX homepage for more info.

Standard LaTeX expressions can be cut and pasted directly into WordPress posts, pages, and comments; display environments require no enclosures, other expressions require only a surrounding $..$ or \\[..\\]. No need for enclosing tags [latex] ... [/latex].
Correct vertical positioning of inline formulas relative to baseline of surrounding text. Say “NO” to jumpy equations produced by other plugins!
SVG vector graphics support, so that formulas are crisp regardless of scaling in browser.
(AMS)LaTeX displayed math environments support: equation, align, gather, multiline, flalign, alignat, etc.
Automatic numbering of displayed equations. Override autonumbering with \\tag{} LaTeX command.
Equation hyper-referencing by standard LaTeX rules with \\label{}, \\ref{}.
Custom LaTeX document preamble, allowing added \\usepackage{} and \\newcommand{}.
TikZ and pgfplots graphics package support.
Preview formulas in comments before publishing. Additionally AJAX Comment Preview plugin should be installed to enable this feature.
Meaningful error messages for mistakes in LaTeX code.
Precise font properties tuning: size, text and background color.
Easy style customization using UI or CSS file.
No LaTeX installation is required.
QuickLaTeX.com automatically provides formula images, which are then cached on user’s server.
Administrative settings page for setting global parameters; AJAX-ified.

Just place LaTeX math expressions into your text and enable QuickLaTeX on the page by [latexpage] command.
\nWP QuickLaTeX will convert them to high-quality images and embed into post. Inline formulas will be properly aligned with the text.
\nDisplayed equations will be auto-numbered by LaTeX rules.
\nTo see plugin in action please visit math-pages on my blog, e.g. Central Differences,
\nCubature formulas for the unit disk, Smooth noise robust differentiators, etc.

\n","installation":"

WP QuickLaTeX is based on the free web service QuickLaTeX.com and doesn’t require
\nLaTeX to be installed on user’s server or hosting account. Just install the plugin and you are good to go.

Download WP QuickLaTeX plug-in.
Unzip the plugin file and upload its content to wp-content/plugins folder of your blog.
Activate WP-QuickLaTeX through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress, adjust its settings if needed.

\n","faq":"\n

\nHow do I add LaTeX to my posts?\n\n

There are three possible ways:

Place [latexpage] somewhere on the page, post, or comment. Place LaTeX expression surrounded by $..$, \\[..\\] or a display environment \\begin(equation}..\\end{equation} (or align, gather, multiline, flalign, alignat).
Enable ‘Use LaTeX Syntax Sitewide’; then it is not necessary to place [latexpage].
Wrap formulas with [latex] ... [/latex] (this gives compatibility with previously-written “legacy” pages).

In any case plugin will do automatic/custom equation numbering based on LaTeX rules.
\nCheck plugin home page for more information on features, examples, tips & tricks.

\nHow can I send bug reports or request new feature?\n\n

Please use comments on the plugin’s web page WP-QuickLaTeX.
\nI’ll do my best to help you.
