I have been playing around behind the scenes and have added a few small enhancements to Walking Randomly to try and make it more useful to readers.<\/p>\n

New Search Box<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first update is the addition of a search box near the top left hand side of the page.\u00a0\u00a0 With over 220 individual posts, I was starting to struggle to find my own content so heaven knows how difficult the typical reader might find it.\u00a0 I find the new search functionality quite useful and I hope you do too.<\/p>\n

Latex in the comments<\/strong><\/p>\n

I have been using mimetex<\/a> to typeset Mathematical equations ever since I started this blog and it has always worked well for me.\u00a0 However, the version of the mimetex plugin-in I was using didn’t allow typeset equations in the comments section of posts which made it difficult for readers to post equations.<\/p>\n

Well, after a bit of googling and experimentation, I figured out how to get it to work in comments as well.\u00a0 It turned out that the php script only needed one extra line of code!<\/p>\n

So, if you would like to put an equation in a comment all you need to do is write your Latex inside the tags \" [ /tex] (without the spaces). you need to type [tex ] \\light \\int_0^1 x^2 [ \/tex]<\/strong> but remember to remove the spaces from inside the [] tags.<\/p>\n

That’s pretty much it.\u00a0 After all they are only minor<\/strong> enhancements.<\/p>\n

The Future<\/strong> – What do you want?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Feel free to let me know of anything else that you think I should do to improve things around here.\u00a0 What do you like?\u00a0 What don’t you like? What would you like to see more of?\u00a0 Are there any topics you wish I would cover? I can’t promise that I’ll act on your suggestions but if you don’t ask you don’t get.<\/p>\n

Thanks for reading and making blogging a worthwhile hobby for me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
