MathJax filter
The MathJax filter converts any Mathematics in TeX format within Moodle texts into something that triggers the MathJax code to display it as a Mathematics on the page.
If the default text editor (Atto) is used, it provides an equation editor for creating Mathematical expressions in TeX format within Moodle texts.
Site administration settings
The MathJax filter is enabled by default in Administration > Site administration > Plugins > Filters > Manage filters. Normally, the MathJax filter should be at the top of the list of filters.
The MathJax filter works without any additional configuration (using the MathJax Content Delivery Network). However, MathJax may also be installed locally if desired, to save on bandwidth or because of local proxy restrictions. See Administration > Site administration > Plugins > Filters > MathJax for further details and configuration settings.
The MathJax project is large and detailed with many options, which a Moodle admin can make use of with the MathJax filter.
