In previous versions of Mediawiki, math was rendered in templates properly, so if you included a page with math equations on it, those equations would render.
I just uploaded to the present version, 1.4.10, and it appears that is not presently possible.
How can this be fixed? I'm willing to adjust the source on my local machine only, but I use this sort of feature on a daily basis, and need it working again, but I'd rather not go back to the older 1.3 tree (my previous instance) to get it...

* Check LocalSettings.php for: $wgUseTeX = true; * Check math/texvc * Check permissions on images/math * Check for presence of latex, dvips, gs, convert * Create [[Template:Mathtest]] containing <math>\frac{1}{2}</math> * Create [[Mathtest]] containing {{Mathtest}}
Works ok for me on my 1.4.11 test wiki.
