Really having problems with Latex
Really having problems with the WordPress plugin for Latex. Trying writing by hand, and also using the latex2wp program, but both have serious problems, and I may not continue this series until I find a better solution.
Edit: See the follow-up article.
I never have any problem with my wp-latex. By the way what were you trying to write?
Nothing particularly fancy. A couple matrices that have worked in earlier posts, now no longer work. Can’t tell if it’s just buggy or it flat-out doesn’t work. Simple stuff works, but whenever I need a longer environment I have problems.
Plus, I’m frustrated that I can’t define macros in latex. Writing QM without being able to define \ket{} as \left|#1\right> is physically painful. It’s slowing me down enough that it’s taking the fun out of the process.
VIlyanur: Thanks for the comments, I gave it another shot and it seems to work okay. Guess I’ll keep going.
