1 month ago If you're comfortable doing so, you can modify the WYSIWYG editor based on TinyMCE specs yourself. There's a button option for superscripts and subscripts, but you just need to add it manually:

I have a scrappy guide on making changes to the WYSIWYG editor that might be helpful in terms of knowing what files to edit: https://gist.github.com/candidexmedia/367711a80274b4c005fd5983df97d20c
Feature Description
It would be really nice if the editor supported superscript and subscript tags.
I often write technical posts with mathematical formulas etc., and currently I have to switch to HTML view and manually add or tags around e.g. log10(x^2) to make it render the way I want (10 subscripted, ^2 should really be ²).
It seems like the editor handles this just fine when I add the tags manually, so I think all that's needed is to add buttons for these tags that work like e.g. the bold/italics buttons.
