Question LaTex implementation for Kunena 1.5.5 ?

Hi everybody!

I'm new to Kunena and Joomla. I've installed the Kunena Forum (1.5.5) in Joomla 1.5.14 and have now a Problem.
I need LaTex in my Forum to show mathematical problems and help students (or some people interested in math) to discuss and solve them.

I had a phpbb 3 forum. in phpbb could i just add my own bbcode and solve that problem with a other server with installed mimetex. But how do i solve that in kunena? Is there a way to add your own bbcode?

Or do i need to hack the Editor-File to add some bbcode and install mimetex to the localhost?

Please help me!

Adding own bbCode is currently manual work: hack lib/kunena.parser.php

Support for custom BBCode will be much better in future versions, and there has been some improvement in K1.6 already.

thank you for the quick answer

i'm not good at programming... i will look if i can solve that problem on my own. Othwerwise i need to go back to phpbb3....

If you have just converted to Kunena, going back to phpbb3 may be a good idea in your case -- for now. We are currently improving our codebase to make new and easy features possible, but it will take some time to implement all those cool features.

no i haven't converted to kunena....

hmmmm... When i have a phpbb3 forum with the bbcode installed and convert it to kunena, will the bbcode (latex code) implemented in kunena too or will it not?? :huh:

No it will not be. All new bbcode needs to be rewritten for Kunena.
