[GUIDE] Enable spellcheck texts (in tinyMCE)

[Carlsen]

Hi,

 

Could find a topic that describes this, so I will write a short guide on how to enable spell checking on your texts in TinyMCE.

1. Go to http://www.tinymce.c...ad/download.php
   
2. Go to the bottom and download PHP Spellchecker 2.0.6
   
3. Extract the downloaded zip file to a folder called spellchecker
   
4. Go to your FTP client and navigate to the folder ~/js/tiny_mce/plugins/
   
5. Upload the spellcheckerfolder
   
6. Go two folders back, so you are in ~/js/
   
7. Edit the file tinymce.inc.js and add this:
   
8. on line 7, add ,spellchecker so your line looks something like this:
   

   				plugins : "safari,pagebreak,style,table,advimage,advlink,inlinepopups,media,contextmenu,paste,fullscreen,xhtmlxtras,preview,spellchecker",
   

   
   

9. On line 11, you also add ,spellchecker:
   

   				   	 theme_advanced_buttons3 : "tablecontrols,|,hr,removeformat,visualaid,|,sub,sup,|,charmap,media,|,ltr,rtl,|,fullscreen,spellchecker",
   

   
   

10. After line 12, add this line:
    

    			spellchecker_languages : "+English=en,Danish=da",
    

    
    

11. Save the tinymce.inc.js and upload it, overwriting the existing.
    You might want to take a backup of your original tinymce.inc.js.
    

 

This should add a new button on row 3 in your TinyMCE editor, allowing you to check the spelling of your product/category/CMS content.

 

 

English=en,Danish=da = If you want to add/edit the languages used, you must write the language of your preference, followed by a = sign and the ISO code for your language.

A thousand thanks!

I'll be trying this soon, thanks for the effort as this should be an option, and one I have always thought about but never had time to express! Thanks again!

Doesn't work on PS 1.5.3.1. The spellcheck button doesn't show up.

Anyone have a solution? I've tried the fix above for version 1.5.3 and my spell check button isn't showing up either.

[BWT]

The solution is someone with the know how needs to make a module so that it adds the functionality to the TinyMCE editor! Or Prestashop HINT HINT, kindly added this option to it's platform (This is an excellent idea) Don't ya think? =)

[Donal]

I agree totally. I am terrible at spelling.

[BWT]

Not only spelling but grammer check!

I got the button to show up on 1.6 however it gives general error when you click on it.    And i used the latest version of the script rather than the older TM.

and finally your not going to be happy with this at all im sure.   There was a bug ticket they decided to blame other things.

ok there are two links in that discussion, the other link takes you to the other topic.   Now also you have to get your own library as it does not provide one so maybe thats the issue.  The library is under the dict dir.  So maybe thats why the error.   I will post back here when i get it working.

Hello, I tried this and I see spellcheck button, but it does not seem to be working. It is not alerting me of misspelled words. I am using 1.6.09. Any suggestions?

I am getting the same error. Doesn't seem to work on 1.6+. You'd think it wouldn't be asking too much to have a simple spellchecker function.

Hello,

this looks like it's been fixed on 1.6.1.2, just enabled it on my local copy and it's working fine.
