Fast MathJax

A MathJax plugin to show beautiful LaTeX without slowing your website.

Description

Want a MathJax plugin to show beautiful LaTeX without slowing your website? Fast Mathjax will do that for you.

Just add [mathjax] shortcode in the post or page you want to show a LaTex. MathJax will load only in that post or page.

Since this plugin does not load MathJax javascript across the whole website, other articles (or posts/pages) that do not have [mathjax] shortcode loads quickly. Overall it improves loading speed and page experience for your readers. The plugin won't load MathJax JS globally on the WordPress site.

• Inline Math:
  • $E=mc^2$
  • \(E=mc^2\)
• Display Math:
  • $$E=mc^2$$
  • \[E=mc^2\]
