Ahhh, ok I see, this explains it.

Thank you!

Thank you for the reply, I’ll see what I can do.

I did reinstalled QuickLatex, cleared the cache and re-rendered all the posts three weeks ago. The only thing I touched in the settings is the latex preamble which reads:

\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{amssymb}

\newcommand{\Q}{\mathbb{Q}}
\renewcommand{\H}{\mathbb{H}}
\newcommand{\R}{\mathbb{R}}
\newcommand{\C}{\mathbb{C}}
\newcommand{\N}{\mathbb{N}}
\newcommand{\Z}{\mathbb{Z}}

Most of the files in the ql-cache directory are about three weeks old also, so I’m not 100% sure anything is being purged.

The most confusing part is that when I opened a couple of those older png files in the cache directory I was able to deduce which post they came from. I opened the blog post and it took several minutes to load anyway and new files were added to the ql-cache directory. These new files were duplicates of the old files with new names.

Hi again.

After I wrote the above comment I clicked on every blog post to re-render the equations in the cache directory and my site was pretty responsive. Then for some reason it stopped looking for (or not finding) the cached images, and pages are again rendering slowly.

I’m not sure what to do at this point… any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thank you for the reply.

I have always used caching on my server, but when I open a page that I haven’t opened in a while the load time is as stated, so I assumed the images were removed from the cache directory after some time and rendered again.

I have installed the plugins and see no immediate improvement. Maybe after the first rendering it will work better in the future.

This is likely an issue with my setup, as it affects all shortcodes I tried.
I found a temporary workaround by replacing < with &lt. Now everything works well!

The issue is not really resolved, but I found viable a workaround, by replacing all < with &lt. This is done automatically if I switch to visual mode.

Not sure what is going on…

Thanks for the tip. I wish it was that but the snipped above is just a copy past from text mode.

Don’t know if this is relevant, but I have the same problem if I insert < or > into a text string, like

[expand title=”Proof”] a < b [/expand]

and the problem persists across the default themes (twenty -fifteen -sixteen and -seventeen) which came with my wordpress install.
