AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
MathML Block is a mixed-rating WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the Block-enabled category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. 4 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

What is MathML? Mathematical Markup Language is a mathematical markup language, an application of XML for describing mathematical notations and capturing both its structure and content. It aims at integrating mathematical formulae into World Wide Web pages and other documents.
The MathML block uses MathJax to render MathML formulas in the editor and on the front end of a website. MathJax (https://www.mathjax.org/) is A JavaScript display engine for mathematics that works in all browsers.
To test a MathML block and enter a formula, for example: \[x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}\].
To test using math formulas inline, type an formula into a block of text, select it and hit the ‘M’ icon in the control bar. For example: \( \cos(θ+φ)=\cos(θ)\cos(φ)−\sin(θ)\sin(φ) \). Note: if you are copying and pasting formulas into the rich text editor, switching to HTML/code editor mode is less likely to reformat your pasted formula.
Technical Notes
Requires PHP 5.6+.
Requires WordPress 5.0+.
