Using MathJax in Movable TypeΒΆ

These instructions assume you already have placed the MathJax files on your server (see Installing and Testing MathJax).

  1. Open Moveable Type Admin interface for the site on which you want to enable MathJax.

  2. In the dashboard menu on the left, open up the Design menu. This should show you the templates you are currently using on the site.

  4. At the end of the file, insert

    <script type="text/javascript"  src="path-to-MathJax/MathJax.js"></script>
    

    where path-to-MathJax is replaced by the web-address of the main MathJax dorectory on your server.

  5. Save the file. This should enable MathJax, so you should be able to start adding mathematical content to your pages. Use the config/MathJas.js file in the MathJax directory to configure MathJax to your needs (see Configuring MathJax for details).
