Hi Marwan,

You're right, it is a bug - reported as MDL-80246. It will be fixed in Moodle 4.2.6 and 4.3.3 which are scheduled to be released on 12 February 2024.

In the meantime, as the bug only affects the TinyMCE text editor, students can switch to using the Atto editor.

If a Teacher can input an equation using the Editor, and a Student can't then the first thing I would be looking at would be "Permissions". Do students have the required permission to use the Equation Editor?

Hi vaishnavi, what Moodle version are you using? Most likely the easiest fix is to upgrade your site. In the meantime you can switch to using the Atto editor.
