SUMMARY

Creating a private online forum that supports LaTeX can be challenging, as most platforms do not offer this feature natively. MathJax is a recommended solution that allows LaTeX rendering without the need for additional plugins, as it loads JavaScript to convert LaTeX into images client-side. Users seeking a user-friendly and private forum should consider platforms that facilitate easy integration of MathJax. Documentation for MathJax is readily available, making it accessible for users to implement.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of LaTeX syntax and usage
  • Familiarity with forum platform options
  • Basic knowledge of JavaScript for integration
  • Experience with private online community management
NEXT STEPS
  • Research MathJax integration for forum platforms
  • Explore user-friendly forum software options that support LaTeX
  • Investigate documentation for MathJax installation and configuration
  • Evaluate privacy features of various forum platforms
USEFUL FOR

Project managers, developers, and team members looking to create a private forum that supports LaTeX for mathematical and scientific discussions.

Hi all,

I want to create a private online forum for a small team of project members, and we will require LaTeX. I've been trying to google options, but most forum platforms do not seem to support LaTeX 'out of the box.' (Or at least I can't seem to find any that do... )

If anyone here is aware of any options for me (free or paid) please let me know. I would really like a platform that comes equipped with LaTeX supported by default, without having to install additional plugins etc.

However, if none come equipped with LaTeX, please suggest a platform which is easiest to use (to install LaTeX), hopefully one with enough documentation out there I can use for reference, for installing pluggins etc. Keep in mind, I need something user friendly and private, this is not meant to be a public forum.

Thank you =)

Mathjax, pretty simple to install (actually this is the solution used at PF). No plugins required, it just loads javascript from the web to interpret your page and converts LaTeX to images client side.
 
thanks, ill look into this.
