idk about anyone else but my members have horrible spelling and I'm surprised JR doesn't have that built into their forum area. Sure, members can choose to ignore the spelling but I for one, love it when I'm told "hey idiot you have too many lll's in that word".

They used to have that feature but Soaring Eagle broke it, so it had to be removed.



(hahahah)

Its built into the browser. I use firefox and it works on any text area. Are you using the editor in your forums? Is there a spell checker extension? If there is it can be turned on.

Yes I have it built into IE11 too but I believe it's the system wide one built into Windows 8.1.

I can't guarantee that my members will even bother to check their browser (they're so accustomed to it being built in) but I'm using FF 35.0.1 and when I type in a editor, here's what it looks like (no error warnings while typing)

No I didn't see the option for a spell check extension in my editor. Will double check that.

Oh well. I'll have to accept it is what it is. Thanks guys!

There is a spellchecker in tinymce, and it is in the core contrib. So try adding spellchecker to your editor template in core templates.

It just doesn't like me. It takes the code, I enabled it (checked the box) and saved and I ran an integrity check just to be safe. No go. Doesn't appear in the Editor or work.

Nothing has gone right for me today. I hate being nonproductive.

I'm done for the day. I'll give my brain a night to reset and start fresh tomorrow. Thank you @ultrajam. Have a good one.
