Equation Numbering and References in Blog Entries: How to Use \label and \ref

AI Thread Summary
Equation numbering and referencing in blog entries using MathJax can be achieved with LaTeX commands like \label and \ref. However, the default settings may not support autonumbering, which complicates the process. Users can find solutions in MathJax's GitHub tickets, detailing how to implement these features. To see the implementation, right-click on the equation in the blog entry for examples using \tag{}, \label{}, and \ref{}. This method enhances the clarity and organization of mathematical content in blog posts.

Hi,

is there a way to use equation numbering and references with \label and \ref in blog entries?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I don't believe so. We use MathJax which uses basic LaTeX commands.
 
Yeah, MathJax! This is why I was asking, because MathJax does it. But I could not figure out how to do it without the autonumber option of MathJax, which is not set here. Now I found out in the GitHub tickets of MathJax how to do it. Here is how it looks like in the blog entry. As always, right click on the equation to see how it is done with \tag{}, \label{} and \ref{}.
 
Oh, cool, did not know that. Thanks for the tip!
 
I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...
About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
