[wp-edu] Latex support in WordPress?

[VanDrimmelen, Jeff]

You can define an API across a whole network if you get permission from the Wordpress folks.  We did that when we were using Akismet.  You put it in the wp-config.php file as something like this: 

/** Define the Akismet key for spam and stats */
define('WPCOM_API_KEY', 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxx');

Other plugins work like this too (Gravity Forms, and CAPTCHA are two others I define for the whole network so each site doesn't have to sign up somewhere).  

Using the Latex plugin I sent earlier I don't think you have to do this though.  You can set up your own server to generate it as well, but I just use the wordpress.com server to generate the latex code for my users.  Seems to work like a charm.  Never had any problems.

There isn't (or I haven't found any way) to do the wordpress.com integration across the whole network in one go.  (Not sure I would want to, anyway).
