    Description

      The MathJaxloader filter adds a span with class nolink around all of the text passed to the filter in order to prevent the autolinking filters from breaking TeX expressions before MathJax is able to render them. This prevents any links on the course page or in activitites where mathematics is also present.
      To reproduce

      1. Create a glossary with autolinking entry
      2. Create a label contain the term and a TeX expression
      3. Enable glossary autolink and MathJax filters
      4. View label where term should be linked to glossary and is not
      5. Repeat with TeX notation filter and term will be linked.
