PHP Spell Checker intergration into vBulletin

Not too sure if this is where its meant to go but if it should be moved please move it.

I have been trying to find a simple spell checker to work on my forums for a while -
Eventually i found this one http://www.master-technology.com/phpbb/ which was working with phpbb.
As i have no idea how to code anything - at all!!! I asked one of their support teams to help and they gave me the answers.
So I can't take any of the credit for it, and thank them for helping me out.
At present it doesn't support vbulletin but since talkin to them they are going to be doing so in the near future.

files to upload: 17
files to edit: 1
templates to edit: 1 (possibly 2)

Instructions:
See the attached text file

Now I get this again.

Warning: main(spell_MySQL.php) [function.main]: failed to create stream: No such file or directory in /xxxx/xxxx/xxxxxx_xxxx/forum/spelling/spell_config.php on line 166

Warning: main() [function.main]: Failed opening 'spell_MySQL.php' for inclusion (include_path='') in /xxxx/xxxx/xxxxxx_xxxx/forum/spelling/spell_config.php on line 166
You must choose a Database Type in the Spell Configuration file.

did you see if the table is created in your db? it should make the table spelling_words?
apart from that i have no idea - it is working fine on mine and the only difference is that i have set it too forums/spelling rather than forum/spelling
but it shouldnt make much difference. Did you change any of the other files? and you did change the permissions to 755
I spoke to their support team and they said that they are planning on releasing a proper patch for vbulletin in the near future.

I have attached a clean spell_config.php to see if that makes any difference

The directory permissions are set to 755, but all file permissions are still at 644. No, there is no spelling_words table. And I didn't change any other files. When they release an update for vBulletin, please let me know. Until then, I'm out of luck.

But not without a fight. got the message

, I had entered the database even tried the full path. That wasn't the problem when I used the MySQL admin tools found that I had a default username entered as "root" no password but a user. Added then did the change from MySQL to pspell and back and it works.

Thanks!

Just want to know if I can remove the Learn button. Want to stop anyone from entering mis-spelled words.

Just browse one of the files for the HTML code with the insert button, you should be able to just remove it.

I cannot believe how quiet this hack is, I think this is one of the best hacks available - it works excellently on my site and all of my users are praising it!

To disable the learn function totaly do this:

In the spelling folder open your spelling.js (remember to back it up first...)

Online 404 (approx) find:

PHP Code:

    odoc.write("<input type='button' value='Learn' class='clbutton' 
onclick='this.blur();parent.Learn_Word("+The_Current_Word_ID+");'><br>"); 


and delete all of it

then still in spelling.js find online 473 (approx):

PHP Code:

function Learn_Word(Word_ID)
{
  Word = Bad_Words[Word_ID].Word;
  Cookie = Get_Cookie("SpellLearned");
  if (Cookie == null) Cookie = Word;
  else Cookie = Cookie + "," + Word;
  Set_Cookie("SpellLearned",Cookie);
  Ignore_All_Words(Word_ID);
} 


and delete that as well.

Save the spelling.js and the learn button is removed.
