How do custom tags work with non HTML style tags?

[SSebigo]

I want to integrate a widget to display maths/physics formulas with LaTeX, but I can't seem to make it detect the tag $formula$. Is there a special way to detect Markdown style tags?

Now LaTex is not supported, perhaps you can try to use custom tag to resolve LaTex by yourself

@asjqkkkk I am using it, the problem is that it requires HTML style, e.g. <tag data="">, but what I'm looking for is something like a base Markdown tagging, e.g. tagdatatag.

Yes, I found out what the problem was. The text which has not been recognized will finally rendered as text tag I need to improve the structure of this library to support define more tags

in markdown_widget 2.0.0+ that you can extend the package to support this feature by using the html_support
