  I wish to use a lot of mathematical notation on my blog. And if I understand it correctly, i will be able to use Latex plugin on this platform. However, I do not understand how to use it, as in how to get started with it. I do not have much knowledge of programming, so is there any way to just get it implemented into where I write my posts without knowing how to write the codes?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  WordPress.com supports LaTeX, a typesetting system that’s really good at formatting mathematical formulas and equations.

  No plugin required and more to the point is there is no FTP access and we bloggers cannot install plugins.

  Thank you everyone, this is certainly a friendly community!

  I visited the page you suggested and found that you have to use this code to use latex in your posts: $latex ihbarfrac{partial}{partial t}left|Psi(t)right>=Hleft|Psi(t)right>$. The probelm is that this sounds a bit difficult to me, because I wouldn’t know how to change it for the different equations. Is there an easier way, or a more elaborate explanation somewhere?

  I do not know too much about maths, but here are some explanations are available. According to this codes, you can create your own equations ($latex your-latex-code-here$).
