Description
WM jqMath plugin is a very simple plugin that adds the jqMath library and styles.
You will be able to add math formulas by directly entering the standard syntax of jqMath or by using a shortcode where you can also add CSS styles.
Current WM jqMath features:
-
Insert directly a jqMath expression on your post or page like: $$y={-b±√{b^2-4ac}}/{2a}$$
-
Insert a jqMath using a shortcode with CSS styles like: [jqmath expr=”$$y={-b±√{b^2-4ac}}/{2a}$$” style=”color: navy; font-size: 20pt”]
In order to enable jqMath for your post, you need to add the shortcode [enable_jqmath] at the beginning of your post.
The jqMath library was written by Dave Barton from Mathscribe. You can find further information regarding jqMath by clicking here
We want to thank Dave for developing this great library!

FAQ
The usage of this plugin is quite straight forward. You just need to know how to use the jqMath syntax. However, if you have any questions please read this FAQ:
- The formulas are not rendering
-
Make sure you added the shortcode [enable_jqmath] at the beginning of your post.
- How can I insert a formula?
-
Just enter the formula directly in the post/page editor using jqMath syntax or by using a shortcode
- When using the syntax $$…$$ the formula appears on a new line and aligned to the center. Can I change this?
-
Yes. If you don’t want a formula centered on a new line, just write it as $…$ instead of $$…$$.
Please find more information about the jqMath syntax here: Mathscribe jqMath - How can I change the color of the formula?
-
Using the shortcode and the CSS style color. Example: [jqmath expr=”$$y=f(x)$$” style=”color: darkgreen”]
You can also use jqMqth syntax. Please read more information by following the link above. - Can I change the font size for the formula?

Changelog
1.3
- You now need to add the shortcode [enable_jqmath] at the beginning of your post to enable jqMath!
- This will enable you to write other posts where you want to use the symbol $ without having jqMath trying to render a formula that does not exist. For example, imagine you want to write a post with examples in PHP and without formulas. The result could be a mess!
1.2
- For the sake of a better implementation of your formulas, the shortcode “[jqmath]” now generates a <span> tag instead of a <div>
1.1
- jqMath library updated to version 0.4.3
1.0
- First release
