It's appearing for me as "2+2", as expected. You need to post a screenshot or describe what you're seeing.

$\int_0^\infty e^{-x^2} dx=\frac{\sqrt{\pi}}{2}$
Seems to be working fine.

Now it works correctly. When a tex tag was used, there was a text saying that the mimetex software should be installed in the forum instead of using Forkosh's server.

I've had it tell me mimetex could not be read before I think but I'm crap at tex, ctan.org saves me.
