There's also a vB 3.5 version: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=92202

What this does: vB Spell allows you to install a dictionary (English dictionary included) into your MysQL database, and provide a spell checking window that works in both of vB's editor modes, standard and WYSIWYG.

Background: Many of you liked PungoSpell, but didn't like recompiling PHP for it. Many liked PHPSpell, but didn't like the lack of WYSIWYG support and browser compatibility. vB Spell solved both problems, I hope, by combining the best of each.

Features:
o Supports most recent versions of browsers. Tested on IE, Firefox, Mozilla/Netsacpe, Opera and Konqueror (Konqueror implies Safari, but please confirm Mac folks)
o Learn Feature uses cookies, so it won't increase the database size
o Admin panel options
o Skips quoted text and other tags (PHP, code, etc.)
o Usergroup permisisons
o Template based interface, and uses your default style.
o Link buttons (Thesarus and Lookup) with links to Merriam Webster's online thesarus and dictionary links with the suggestion for misspelled words.

Installation:
1. Download vbspell.zip and upload the files and run vbspell_install.php
2. Go to AdminCP > vBulletin Options > vB Spell and edit your usergroup permisisons.
3. For each template where you would like to add a vB Spell, do the following edits (Example: editpost, newreply, newthread, etc.)

Note: For those running PHP in cgi mode and get timeouts while installing the dictionary, you can download the file dictionary_sql_for_php_cgi.zip to import it to mysql through the mysql command line.

A. Find:
HTML Code:
</head>
Add before:
HTML Code:
<script src="vbspell.js"></script>
B. Find: (or anywhere in the body)
HTML Code:
$navbar
Add after:
HTML Code:
<form name="spell_form" id="spell_form" method="POST" target="spellWindow" action="vbspell.php">
        <input type="hidden" name="spell_formname" value="">
        <input type="hidden" name="spell_fieldname" value="">
        <input type="hidden" name="spellstring" value="">
        <input type="hidden" name="toolbar" value="">
</form>
C. Find the submit and preview buttons:
HTML Code:
		<input type="submit" class="button" name="sbutton" value="$vbphrase[save_changes]" accesskey="s" tabindex="1" />
		<input type="submit" class="button" name="preview" value="$vbphrase[preview_changes]" accesskey="p" tabindex="1" />
Add below:
HTML Code:
<if condition="$show['wysiwyg']">
        <input type="button" class="button" value="Spell Check" onClick="spellCheck('vbform', 'WYSIWYG_HTML', '2');">
<else />
        <input type="button" class="button" value="Spell Check" onClick="spellCheck('vbform', 'message', '1');">
</if>

Other templates:

Optional: Other Templates that contain edit boxes are:
USERCP_SHELL just add the first change (A) here in above the </head section. Required for pm_newpm and modifysignature.
editpost
Calendar Templates: calendar_edit
New Posting Templates: newreply, newthread
Modify User Options Templates: add the the first change (A) in USERCP_SHELL) and the rest (B and C) in modifysignature

Quick reply: . Put change (A) in showthread, above </head>. Then add change B to the beginning of showthread_quickreply. Then find
HTML Code:
			<input type="submit" class="button" value="$vbphrase[go_advanced]" accesskey="x" title="(Alt + X)" name="preview" tabindex="3" id="qr_preview" onclick="this.form.clickedelm.value = this.value" />
Add after it:
HTML Code:
<if condition="$WYSIWYG == 2">
        <input type="button" class="button" value="Spell Check" onClick="spellCheck('vbform', 'WYSIWYG_HTML', '2');">
<else />
        <input type="button" class="button" value="Spell Check" onClick="spellCheck('vbform', 'message', '1');">
</if>

I forgot to mention, the last problem reported turned out to be due to ad/popup blocking by Norton Internet Security

Nothing wrong, it was just vague. After a couple of PM's, I decided to re-write that section to make it easier. Test it in quick reply in standard and WYSIWYG, if it works, then you're o.k.

I've installed it and it installed perfectly.

One question though, how do I modify the permissions so that all usergroups can use the spell check? Where would I go to modify them?
