Description physikerwelt 2013-09-11 20:22:48 UTC
There is a hidden option in the math extension that forces the equation to be re-rendered called mathpurge independent if the entry is stored in the database that can be specified as url parameter action=purge&mathpurge=true.

There are two options, either
1)
set mathpurge automatically when action=purge.
There are two issues with this solution:
a) Rerendering all equation might take a while and if used by bots this could cause an extensive use of resources.
b) I did not manage to implement that, because I found no way to find out if action=purge from the math extension... so I would need help with that

2) Document this option... 1 issue: Ori-l was not a fan of this solution... unfortunately I do not remember why.

For now, we live with option 2.
