MathJax Configuration

  1. Create or extend _includes/head_custom.html with:

    {% assign math = page.math | default: layout.math | default: site.math %}
    
    {% case math %}
      {% when "mathjax" %}
        {% include mathjax.html %}
    {% endcase %}
    
  2. Copy the following files to your website source repo:

  3. To make MathJax available on all your web pages, add to _config.yml:

    math: mathjax
    

    To restrict MathJax to pages that use it, add to the front matter either:

    math: mathjax
    

    or:

    layout: mathjax
    

    You can add a preamble of MathJax definitions of new commands and environments in _layouts/mathjax.html. It extends the default layout.
