Install using the alternative method, you will need phpmyadmin access, and be able to import sql files in your database. The reason it stops after so long is because your website host only allows a specific number of queries at one time. It's your host's fault, not this mod's.

Can someone help me please, too bad the support stinks for this hack..

Does this work on a Mac with Safari?

Anyone using it?

Thanks :)

This works with Safari, but regardless of the browser, it interferes with integrated PhotoPost pro insofar as it completely removes the ability for any Gallery replies within the integrated PhotoPost Pro.

We tried the latest version and had to turn it back off.

Thanks..... :)

I think we'll pass....

Great idea, but between potential conflicts and issues about bandwidth and CPU, we'll put up with a membership who can't spell for now.... :D

Appreciate the effort of the developer though ... :up:

don't know if this is too late. i had the same problem after upgrading to the latest version of vbspell today. apparently, it's an error in the templates. if you actually check the source code for the page "newreply.php", you would notice that the form action calls for "/vbspell.php", which is wrong.

i checked the coding under plugin manager, and found that "$vboptions[bburl]" didnt work for me. i just removed it, and changed it to "/community/vbspell.php". by the way, that error has to be corrected twice. once for "vbspell.js", and another for "vbspell.php".

JirQUEST, thank you so much for your help! This is a step in the right direction. Now I do not get the error message anymore, but when the vbspell pop up comes up, I am first asked to log in within that screen (the first time I try it, afterwards it doesn't ask for it again... I believe it is a problem with the chestnut style being not compatible with this version of vbulletin), and then I get a "vB Spell installation problem, please notify the webmaster." Has anyone experienced this problem?

And JirQUEST, is there anythign I need to do to the newreply.php page? I did a find on it, and could not find /vbspell.php anywhere on it... is this needed? Thanks agian. :)

Thanks a bunch JirQUEST

I can't get as far as most other people posting here.
My problem is that when importing the XML file, my browser 'stops' at 50-60%.
I tried importing it with:

• IE7
• FireFox
• Opera
• Safari
• via upload & import from ./includes/xml

This was my problem with the 3.5 version as well.

As far as the SQL, I imported each of the 10 SQL segments to my DB.

I'm just stuck on this XML.

Can anyone help?? :(

Thank you JirQUEST :up:

This is the problem I'm having; my XML import dies at 60%.
But aren't the 10 manual SQL files a replacement to dictionary.dic? Are you saying that if I ran the 10 SQL queries (manual install) that I don't need to import the XML into my Products?

How will my board be setup to administrate this feature then?

Please advise.

you are the man!!!!!!!!!! that fixed everything :-)))))))))))

thanks so much:D:D

When installing, do not upload the DICTIONARY.DOC at all, just import the product, then run the sql files in phpmyadmin and you will be set.

Thanks Replicators; that worked.

Next struggle: After installing & configuring, I noticed that the Spell Check icon is only on my Quick Reply postbit, not full postbit.

Even on the QuickReply, it doesn't do anything when clicked.

I have the exact same problem. When the new window appears, it says there was an installation problem.

Help,

I followed the install as shown. I never see any import of the dictionary as others have taked about freezing. The icon is on the editor screen in vbulletin and the vspell option is in my admin setup, but clicking the spell check icon does nothing. What am I doing wrong?

Note: I'm a rookie, take it easy on me :)

Thanks,

Bob

Any information, i'm still getting the problem?

I am stuck on this install. I am using vb3.6.4 I have all the populated tables in my database I have imported the product file and the icon appears To be in my template problem is nothing happens when you click the spell check icon. I do recieve an error at the bottom of the page. I am viewing through IE

Installed but disabled until the popunder issue is resolved. It's a great mod but it's ruined when people don't realize the window is opened up in the background.

Hi, relative newbie here. I've installed this mod into my database directly adding the ten alternate SQL files directly into the SQL database through MYPHPADMIN software. They went thorugh just fine and successfully loaded. I then added the mod as per adminCP. I can see the vBspell option now in the vBulletin options and can alter them and save them as should be expected. It seems to have loaded into the vBulletin software just fine. Yet when I try and click on the icon, nothing happens. If I am using IE7, all I get is a small "error on page" message on the footbar in the lower left corner. This is the same problem Serafim described above. I would appreciate any help. Thanks. Using version 3.6.8. So if the issue is the popunder, has anyone addressed this yet then?

Jeriddian

I have this installed in 3.6.8. It works on all pages except it does not work in quick reply, quick edit, and in the new project tools.

I have checked the html source code of these and the vbspell code looks exactly like that on showthread, etc.

I've made the changes suggested earlier in this thread (i.e. changing from "$vbforum[url]" to /forums/vbspell.php, etc) but nothing happens when i click the icon on the quickreply, quickedit, and project pages.

Thanks for any new suggestions anyone might have.

Same problem here.

Ive instaled this fine uploaded both folders and imported xml, the button shows but when I click it nothing happens ??? And the status bar reads error on page after clicking it??

I am running ver vB 3.6.8 and this mod wasn't working until I made your change.

Thanks!

My forums are under the /forums subdirectory so I made the link "/forums/sbspell.js" and "/forums/vbspell.php" by editing the templates under the plugin manager.

It seems to be working great now :up:

I also get the icons.. but they do nothing when clicked.

JirQuest... can you please go through the process, step by step of what ever changes to make that will get this working for all of us who are having promblems on 3.6.8?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Tim

Hi,

Yeah I am getting the same problem with vb 3.6.7PL1 and 3.6.8

The problem only appears to be under Internet Explorer. Under firefox the spell checker appears to work correctly.

Maybe this might help in starting to track the problem down.

Regards

Not sure how, but my son got it working. Works great in VBulletin. However, it had disabled the comment option in PhotoPost.

Anyone else run into this and fond the fix for it>

Bob

"vB Spell installation problem, please notify the webmaster." is the message I get in the top box whenever trying to use VBSpell. The server my copy of VBulletin is on is Apache Red Hat Linux. Not sure what other debugging data you'd need. I even added the postbit_quickedit code and saved it, but all that did was add the spell check button to the quick editor. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling VBSpell to no avail. I've tried this in both Firefox 2.0.0.6 and IE 6.0.2800 and it doesn't work in either browser.
I'm using VBSpell 10.3 .. which I notice in the Edit box for the product, says "3.5.0" for compatibility, even though your data here indicates it works with 3.6.x versions also.

This worked for me. I actually had to change it in the vbspell template.

Thanks.

Like someone already said. A fix is needed for this so it doesn't interfere with the PhotoPost comment option.

This worked for me as well... asfter spending 2 hours going through posts and trying to figure out what went wrong.

The instructions should state explicityly that users of the older versions should remove the old code from their templates.

The plugin should also be updated with the fix decribed above.

hey. sorry about getting back so late. i hardly visit these boards, so if anything that you need help with, email me.

steps:

1. admincp - plugins & products - plugin manager.
2. look for "vB Spell Template Changes".
3. click EDIT.
4. find "/vbspell.js". Change to "/forumsdirectory/vbspell.js".
5. do the same for "/vbspell.php".

it's right at the top. you can't miss it. i am also getting the problem with the "VBSpell installation problem" after changing webhosts. Will try and see how i can fix that.

Where can I get dictionary brazilian portuguese for it?

Thanks that worked, but I was a bit confused by your directions at first - the "forumsdirectory" in "/forumsdirectory/vbspell.js" should be the forum directory that you use - for example if you use "forum" them use "/forum/vbspell.js" or if you use "forums" use "/forums/vbspell.js"

Now the only problem I have is the window is a pop-under - it pops under the open browser window instead of in front. I used the fix from post 214:
but that is just a workaround since it initially pops under, then on top.

Here you go.

If anyone else wants any other language dictionaries, simply go to:
and download the dictionary of your choice, and rename the extension to all caps, (from .dic to .DIC). They have the following dictionaries available:

Is there any Greek dictionary I can get for vb spell?
Does vb spell work on vB 3.6.8?

Didn't do it for me!
I'm running VBulletin 3.6.8 new install.

mine has stopped working since 3.6.8. Is there a problem?

I've installed 3 times.. last time was a charm worked just fine for all of 10 minutes.. now getting this error any suggestions.. the vbspell.php file is in fact there on my server. Also running 3.6.8.

Are any of you having trouble with Quick Reply? I have people saying they have Fire Fox and they say... 'After I post in a thread, I get stuck on a blank page and it stalls. I have to use the back button to get back to the forum.'

Any idea?

I just tried to install it and got this error:

I uninstalled and reinstalled but still the same.

Thanks,
