Gitbook remote not rendering maths in reading mode

I'm writing up a Gitbook and there's some maths involved. Great, given there's KateX support!

With the Gitbook Editor, all is fine, maths get rendered alright, as can be seen here

on Gitub Editor

Same for when I'm on the remote repo and I use the editor mode.

But, on the reading mode in remote, I get this instead

in the reading mode remote

I've tried seen if by any means some plugin had to be chosen in the settings, but nothing.

What's going on?

Solution

  • Have you added "plugins": ["katex"] to your book.json file?

    Rendering will work in the editor even if you haven't added it.

    If you haven't made or edited a book.json file, add one in your book's root directory, and put the following in it:

    {
    "plugins": ["katex"]
}
