SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the need for a blogging platform that supports LaTeX for writing articles in physics and mathematics. Users express frustration with existing platforms that lack direct LaTeX support, opting instead for cumbersome image workarounds. The new blog system mentioned utilizes current vb functions and is in the process of integrating LaTeX support, although the preview feature currently does not render LaTeX correctly. Users are encouraged to write their LaTeX code directly and post their blogs, with the option to edit afterward if necessary.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with LaTeX typesetting for mathematical expressions
  • Understanding of blogging platforms and their functionalities
  • Basic knowledge of HTML for formatting blog posts
  • Experience with online forums and community engagement
NEXT STEPS
  • Research LaTeX integration in blogging platforms like WordPress and Medium
  • Explore the use of vb functions for enhanced blog features
  • Learn about alternative methods for displaying mathematical content online
  • Investigate community forums for troubleshooting LaTeX issues in blogs
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for bloggers in the fields of physics and mathematics, educators looking to share knowledge, and anyone interested in enhancing their blogging experience with LaTeX support.

Hi,

I want to write some articles in a blog. The blog should be a kind of online diary for my proceedings and cognitions in physics and math.

I found a lot of blogs but without a directly latex support :(

I know I could work with images, like creating the TeX somewhere else and embedding the png pictures of my formulas in the blog but for me this is unacceptable because it is too circuitous.

thanks
greetings

Okay,

I could do this with the forum :)

BUT:

I could not write my TeX code because this stupid editors shows old things I wrote a long time ago if I go to preview? What the **** happened there?

Guten tag, Herbststurm! :smile:

(that's all the German I know :redface:)

Previewing LaTeX on the new blog system seems to be one of the many things on the to-do list, see …

The good news is that since the new blog uses current vb functions chroot is working on getting latex working.

no … you can write it … you can't read it! :wink:

Have a look at https://www.physicsforums.com/blog.php?b=694" , posted today …

you can see that LateX does work in blogs …

it's only the preview facility that can't handle LaTeX …

so just write the LaTeX, hope it's correct, post the blog, and then edit the blog if necessary. :biggrin:

btw you can write a lot of equations without LaTeX by using the X2 and X2 tags and copying-and-pasting most symbols …

see my signature, and Redbelly98's blog :wink: …​
happy blogging! :smile:
