Tip: WordPress & LaTeX

Standard

WordPress is known to support \LaTeX like

i\hbar\frac{\partial}{\partial t}\left|\Psi(t)\right>=H\left|\Psi(t)\right>

To embed equations using \LaTeX precede your \LaTeX code with “latex” and sandwich this with $ as follows [1][2]:

$latex your-latex-code$

To change the size precede the last $ sign with &s=2 like this:

$latex your-latex-code&s=2$

where 2 is the size which could be any number (as far as I know). For example, the Schrödinger equation above is of size 2. It was generated using:

$latex i\hbar\frac{\partial}{\partial t}\left|\Psi(t)\right>=H\left|\Psi(t)\right>&s=2$
