Basically and the two plugins mentioned above installed and functioning. But in math posts, my math code is getting hyphenated, so I get mathjax errors like: Undefined control sequence \righ (the intended command was \rightarrow).

Searching I could not find anyone with a similar problem, so I resorted to the wisdom of SE :-) Ideas?

EDIT: here are the links for the plugins: Mathjax-latex and wp-Typography.

You can tell wp-Typography to not process the code inside certain elements -- go to Settings » wp-Typography in your site's backend and add the appropriate items to the appropriate areas. If you're not sure what the appropriate items are, have a look at the source of one of the pages where you've got some LaTeX code added in. What tags are wrapped around your LaTeX code?

  • <math>...</math> -- you should add math to the HTML Elements box
  • <div id="something">...</div> -- add something to the ID box
  • <span class="something">...</span> -- add something to the Class box
