    @WIRIS TEAM SUPPORT.
    Yes I can confirm that I have the latest version of the filter installed. I have upgraded all the components to the latest version. This includes the plugin for ATTO and TinyMCE. I also have the wiris filter second on the list of filters with the MathJax on top. Still the icon doesn't show. I have also doubled check to ensure that I have included in the atto and tinymce toolbar configuration. For atto it is just "maths" and for tinymce it is " tiny_mce_wiris_formulaEditor, tiny_mce_wiris_CAS". Still it doesn't work.

    Hello,
    I'm currently migrating from Moodle 2.8 to Moodle 3.2.
    And the filter_wiris plugin poses a problem during the migration.
    I get this error:

    filter_wiris
    Erreur d'exécution DDL sql
    Erreur: 1071 Specified key was too long
    CREATE TABLE mdl_filter_wiris_formulas (
    id BIGINT(10) NOT NULL auto_increment,
    md5 VARCHAR(255) COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
    content LONGTEXT COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL,
    CONSTRAINT PRIMARY KEY (id)
    , UNIQUE KEY mdl_filtwiriform_md5_uix (md5)
    )
    ENGINE = InnoDB
    DEFAULT COLLATE = utf8mb4_unicode_ci ROW_FORMAT=Dynamic
    Error code: ddlexecuteerror

    Has anyone ever faced this mistake?

    Thank you

    Reviewing your issue we detect a bug with utfmb4 collation. We are working to solve it in our next release.

    We've got a puzzling issue here.

    When a student does an Online Text assignment submission that uses Wiris math markup, the markup source code shows in the instructor's view (grading page) for that assignment. Likewise, when the instructor looks at the assignment submission individually, the markup source code shows, abbreviated, until the instructor clicks the "+" button, at which point the rendered image of the math symbols is displayed. This started happening in Moodle 3.5 and did not occur in 3.4 and previous.

    Any ideas?
