In summary, the conversation discusses the use of equation numbering and references in blog entries using MathJax. While initially unsure if it was possible without the autonumber option, it was discovered through GitHub tickets that it could be done using \tag{}, \label{}, and \ref{}. This feature can be accessed by right-clicking on the equation.

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{}.
