This article covers other plugins supported by Icarus 3.

This article is also available in 简体中文.

The following plugins are provided by ppoffice/hexo-component-inferno. Please refer to it for a complete list of supported plugins and their configuration details.

Gallery

Installation Guide

The gallery plugin of Icarus contains both lightGallery and Justified Gallery extensions. To enable it, set plugins > gallery to true in your theme configurations.

{% codeblock _config.icarus.yml lang:yaml %} plugins: gallery: true {% endcodeblock %}

Additionally, in order to use Justified Gallery, wrap your images with the <div class="justified-gallery"> and </div> HTML tag pair. Also, if you are using Markdown syntax to include images, add additional empty lines between the HTML tags and Markdown tags. For example, the Markdown code of the gallery preview below is

{% codeblock "Justified-Gallery-Markdown.md" lang:markdown >folded %}

{% endcodeblock %}

Meanwhile, we can use pure HTML to create Justified Galleries as well. In this case, we will not need the empty lines between HTML tags.

{% codeblock "Justified-Gallery-HTML.md" lang:html >folded %}

{% endcodeblock %}

Preview

Here is an image grid created by Justified Gallery. You can also view the full image using lightGallery by clicking on any image.

KaTeX

Installation Guide

You can use the KaTeX plugin to render \(\TeX\) expressions. To enable KaTeX, please set plugins > katex to true in your theme configurations.

{% codeblock _config.icarus.yml lang:yaml %} plugins: katex: true {% endcodeblock %}

Please also use \\( and \\) to wrap your inline expressions and $$ or \\[ and \\] pair to wrap block expressions. For example,

{% codeblock Some-Post.md lang:markdown >folded %} This is an inline expression: \(ax^2+bx+c=0\).

This is a block expression:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{\Bigl(\sqrt{\phi \sqrt{5}}-\phi\Bigr) e^{\frac25 \pi}} = 
1+\frac{e^{-2\pi}} {1+\frac{e^{-4\pi}} {1+\frac{e^{-6\pi}} 
{1+\frac{e^{-8\pi}} {1+\cdots} } } }$$

This is another block expression:
\\[f(x) = \int_{-\infty}^\infty\hat f(\xi)e^{2 \pi i \xi x}d\xi\\]
{% endcodeblock %}

Sometimes your \\(\TeX\\) syntax will be mistaken as Markdown syntax, which will result in rendering error.
For instance, the following equation will not work since it contains more than one `_` (underscores), 
which are mistaken for the italic text when processed by the Markdown renderer:

{% codeblock Some-Post.md lang:tex %}

\hat{x}{k}=\hat{x}{k}^{-}+K_{t}\left(y_{k}\right)

{% endcodeblock %}

In this case, you can either escape every character that may cause confusion:

{% codeblock Some-Post.md lang:tex %}

\hat{x}_{k}=\hat{x}_{k}^{-}+K_{t}\left(y_{k}\right)

{% endcodeblock %}

or simply wrap the whole equation with an additional pair of HTML tags:

{% codeblock Some-Post.md lang:tex %}
<div>

\hat{x}{k}=\hat{x}{k}^{-}+K_{t}\left(y_{k}\right)

</div>
{% endcodeblock %}

## MathJax

**Installation Guide**

You can use MathJax to render \\(\TeX\\), MathML, or AsciiMath expressions.
To enable MathJax, please set `plugins` > `mathjax` to `true` in your theme configurations.

{% codeblock _config.icarus.yml lang:yaml %}
plugins:
    mathjax: true
{% endcodeblock %}

When using the \\(\TeX\\) syntax, please use `$` or `\\(` and `\\)` to wrap your inline expressions and
and `$$` or `\\[` and `\\]` pair to wrap block expressions.
You can also use \\(\LaTeX\\) environments directly.
For example,

{% codeblock Tex-Example.md lang:markdown >folded %}
This is an inline expression: \\(ax^2+bx+c=0\\). This is another inline expression: $ax^2+bx+c>0$.

This is a block expression:
$$\displaystyle \frac{1}{\Bigl(\sqrt{\phi \sqrt{5}}-\phi\Bigr) e^{\frac25 \pi}} = 
1+\frac{e^{-2\pi}} {1+\frac{e^{-4\pi}} {1+\frac{e^{-6\pi}} 
{1+\frac{e^{-8\pi}} {1+\cdots} } } }$$

This is another block expression:
\\[f(x) = \int_{-\infty}^\infty\hat f(\xi)e^{2 \pi i \xi x}d\xi\\]

Or use \\(\LaTeX\\) environment:
\\begin{equation}
A =
\\begin{bmatrix}
  a & b \\\\
  c & c
\\end{bmatrix}
\\end{equation}
{% endcodeblock %}

Or you can use MathML syntax.
For example, 

{% codeblock MathML-Example.md lang:html >folded %}
When 
<math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML">
    <mi>a</mi>
    <mo>≠</mo>
    <mn>0</mn>
</math>, 
there are two solutions to 
<math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML">
    <mi>a</mi>
    <msup>
        <mi>x</mi>
        <mn>2</mn>
    </msup>
    <mo>+</mo>
    <mi>b</mi>
    <mi>x</mi>
    <mo>+</mo>
    <mi>c</mi>
    <mo>=</mo>
    <mn>0</mn>
</math> 
and they are
<math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="block">
    <mi>x</mi>
    <mo>=</mo>
    <mrow>
        <mfrac>
            <mrow>
                <mo>-</mo>
                <mi>b</mi>
                <mo>±</mo>
                <msqrt>
                    <msup>
                        <mi>b</mi>
                        <mn>2</mn>
                    </msup>
                    <mo>-</mo>
                    <mn>4</mn>
                    <mi>a</mi>
                    <mi>c</mi>
                </msqrt>
            </mrow>
            <mrow>
                <mn>2</mn>
                <mi>a</mi>
            </mrow>
        </mfrac>
    </mrow>
    <mtext>.</mtext>
</math>
{% endcodeblock %}

Similarly, you can also use AsciiMath supported by MathJax.
Expressions should be wrapped in <code>\\`</code> in this case.

{% codeblock AsciiMath-Example.md lang:markdown >folded %}
When \`a != 0\`, there are two solutions to \`ax^2 + bx + c = 0\` and they are <p style="text-align:center">\`x = (-b +- sqrt(b^2-4ac))/(2a)\`.</p>
{% endcodeblock %}

Sometimes your latex syntax will be mistaken as Markdown syntax, which will result in rendering error.
Please refer to the [KaTeX](#KaTeX) section for solutions to this.

**Preview(\\(\TeX\\) & \\(\LaTeX\\))**

This is an inline expression: \\(ax^2+bx+c=0\\). This is another inline expression: $ax^2+bx+c>0$.

This is a block expression:
$$\displaystyle \frac{1}{\Bigl(\sqrt{\phi \sqrt{5}}-\phi\Bigr) e^{\frac25 \pi}} = 
1+\frac{e^{-2\pi}} {1+\frac{e^{-4\pi}} {1+\frac{e^{-6\pi}} 
{1+\frac{e^{-8\pi}} {1+\cdots} } } }$$

This is another block expression:
\\[f(x) = \int_{-\infty}^\infty\hat f(\xi)e^{2 \pi i \xi x}d\xi\\]

You can use the Outdated Browser plugin to detect outdated browsers used by
your site's visitors and remind them to upgrade their browsers.
To enable it, please set `plugins` > `outdated_browser` to `true` in your theme configurations.
Click [here](https://bestvpn.org/outdatedbrowser/en) to see a live preview of this plugin.
