Thread: How do I get LaTeX to work? How do I get quoting to work?

I am new to this forum, and am having trouble getting two features to work at all. First of all, I haven't figured out how to get LaTeX to work using the quick menu. If I double click on an item nothing happens.

If I drag an item to the edit window I get this: http://www.thephysicsforum.com/vlate...d44376b8c3.png

Is there some configuration that is incorrect? I am using Chrome Version 34.0.1847.131 m, and it says it is up to date.

When I try the quote buttons on a posting I want to respond to, nothing happens. I've tried it before typing in the reply box, I've tried it after typing in the reply box, and I've tried it before doing Advanced Reply. I just get the cirular arrow icon indicating it is doing something, but nothing ever happens.

Any ideas, anyone?

I tried the link. It came up blank.

There is currently an issue with forum software, which I am trying to resolve together with the Site Admin. The problem isn't on your end, but rather with the forum itself.
I'll let you know once I have a resolution.

Is this problem not going to be fixed? I haven't heard anything about this in about 2 weeks now.

I am having difficulties contacting the Site Admin - I think he might be away on leave. My apologies. I am trying to get this sorted asap, but only the Site Admin has direct access to the servers.

Markus: Thanks, I appreciate your efforts on this. I'll be patient...

Hi. I did an essay to see the result on the screen, which was normal. I did not know that while my note looks normal, a problem arises in the forum software. Does that mean we should avoid using LaTex in the forum?
