I have some posts embedded within my website. The mathematics in them isn’t rendering within the embeds.
Using the old plugin, we could [patch the embed.js.erb file](https://github.com/kasperpeulen/discourse-mathjax/issues/21) to get the math to render. Is there something we can do with `discourse-math` to make it work in embeds?
[Here’s a sample of what I’m talking about](https://www.math.wichita.edu/~hammond/class-notes/section-prop-logic.html) (scroll to the bottom).
Thanks!

It looks like the solution is in the last comment on the Github thread that you referenced:
[https://github.com/kasperpeulen/discourse-mathjax/issues/21#issuecomment-471256399](https://github.com/kasperpeulen/discourse-mathjax/issues/21#issuecomment-471256399)
Have you tried it?

Yes, and that works with the old third-party extension discourse-mathjax . However, discourse has implemented their own discourse-math extension and this solution does not work.

I don’t think the issue is with the plugin. The new plugin still uses the math spans (as you can see if you inspect the source of your page) so the solution should still work. What may have changes since then is how Discourse code embeds the posts?

To be clear, what I’m suggesting that this patch should still work?
