Installation

• Go to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Math and download the latest version.
• Extract the file (names similarly to Math-REL1_30-e13d2d5.tar.gz) in /var/www/mediawiki-1.26.2/extensions:

cd /var/www/mediawiki-1.26.2/extensions
gunzip < .../Math-REL1_30-e13d2d5.tar.gz | tar xfv -

Modify /var/www/mediawiki-1.26.2/LocalSettings.php:

wfLoadExtension( 'Math' );

Run update.php:

cd /var/www/mediawiki-1.26.2/maintenance
php update.php

At this point the Math extension should be installed, but we also need to set math output modes in LocalSettings.php:

// Set MathML as default rendering option
$wgDefaultUserOptions['math'] = 'mathml';
$wgMathFullRestbaseURL= 'https://api.formulasearchengine.com/';
