Hi there,

Previously, I added the chrome extension "MathJax PlugIn for GitHub" and the math equations showed correctly. But for now, the equation can not be shown in the correct view after the first one. For example, I wrote “$\beta$ and $\alpha$” and it showed the correct beta symbol but $\alpha$. I am not sure what is the wrong of this issue.

Thank you very much for your help. Xuewei

GitHub has officially supported MathJax in the GitHub Flavored Markdown since May 19, 2022, see https://github.blog/2022-05-19-math-support-in-markdown/. Thus for most cases I think this extension is not required any more.

However, GitHub's support for MathJax is very poor, and it can't render mathematical formulas properly at all. see https://github.com/github/markup/issues/1584#issuecomment-1229224312
