LaTeX in some tables isn't rendering correctly #143

Closed bree-z closed 5 years ago

bree-z commented 5 years ago

For certain problems, the math notation within a table, or even in certain cells isn't rendering properly on the OL-WW site. E.g.:

Let me know if you need any other examples, thanks!

Thanks for the details, Bree. This appears to be a duplicate of #133, where the source content was written using backticks as LaTeX delimiters within the columns. See especially https://github.com/livinglab/webwork-for-wordpress/issues/133#issuecomment-424502219 and follow-up comments. Perhaps @drdrew42 can chime in and confirm that backtick delimiters will be replaced in production content?

Tentatively closing based on earlier discussion regarding backticks. If this comes up in production, and we discover that we need to add backticks as a TeX delimiter in at least some contexts, we can explore at that time.
