A 3.6 version by cynix2 is posted here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=124578

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 Works in WYSIWYG toolbar, Standard toolbar, and no toolbar
o Can be added in full edit mode, quick edit and quick reply.
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:
Note: There is a french version of vB Spell, by cclaerhout posted here

1. Upload files and run vbspell_install.php
2. Go to AdminCP > vBulletin Options > vB Spell and edit your usergroup permisisons.
3. Template edits: (see alternative method, if you don't mind removing the ieSpell button made by vB : https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....9&postcount=48)

For each template where you would like to add a vB Spell, do the following edits (Example: editpost, newreply, newthread, etc.)

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

Other templates:

Optional: Other Templates that contain edit boxes are:
USERCP_SHELL just add A before the </head section and B after it. Required for pm_newpm and modifysignature.
editpost
Calendar Templates: calendar_edit
New Posting Templates: newreply, newthread

Quick reply: . Put change A and B in showthread, as the rest, and use this for step C:
HTML Code:
<input type="button" class="button" value="Spell Check" onClick="spellCheck('qrform', '$editorid', '2');" />
Right after this (also in showthread):
HTML Code:
			<input type="submit" class="button" value="$vbphrase[go_advanced]" accesskey="x" title="(Alt + X)" name="preview" tabindex="3" id="qr_preview" onclick="this.form.clickedelm.value = this.value" />
For quick edit in postbit_quickedit, use this for step C (A and B are in showthread):
HTML Code:
		<input type="button" class="button" value="Spell Check" onClick="spellCheck('vbform', '$editorid', '2');" />
After this:
HTML Code:
		<input type="button" class="button" tabindex="1" accesskey="p" value="$vbphrase[go_advanced]" id="{$editorid}_adv" />

History:

Make sure you rename the file to DICTIONARY.DIC

Give it a try, and let me know if it spells properly or not, I have not tried it and I'd be interested to know.

Great program but you are not very clear on a couple of things for us "Non-coder" types...

First, do I assume the dic is placed in admincp or what?

second, you are not very clear on these instructions:

Other templates:

Optional: Other Templates that contain edit boxes are:

USERCP_SHELL just add A before the </head section and B after it. Required for pm_newpm and modifysignature.
editpost
Calendar Templates: calendar_edit
New Posting Templates: newreply, newthread

Quick reply: . Put change A and B in showthread, as the rest, and use this for step C:


Can you say that in stupid english?

Your hack is really great and it works with french language. Thanks you very much.

I've just modified the installation process. I find it easier.

Code installation
Put
Code:
<script src="vbspell.js"></script>
at the end of your headinclude template.

Put
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="">
</form>
at the end of your header template.



Link to the dictionnary

editor_toolbar_on:

Find
Code:
			<if condition="is_browser('ie') AND !is_browser('mac')">
				<td><div class="imagebutton" id="{$editorid}_cmd_spelling"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_editor]/spelling.gif" width="21" height="20" alt="$vbphrase[check_spelling]" /></div></td>
			</if>
Replace with
Code:
				<td onclick="spellCheck('vbform', '$editorid', '2');"><div class="imagebutton"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_editor]/spelling.gif" width="21" height="20" alt="$vbphrase[check_spelling]" /></div></td>



postbit_quickedit AND showthread_quickreply :

Find
Code:
	<if condition="is_browser('ie')">
			<td><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_editor]/separator.gif" width="6" height="20" alt="" /></td>
			<td><div class="imagebutton" id="{$editorid}_cmd_spelling"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_editor]/spelling.gif" width="21" height="20" alt="$vbphrase[check_spelling]" /></div></td>
		</if>
Replace with


Code:
		
		<td><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_editor]/separator.gif" width="6" height="20" alt="" /></td>
		<td onclick="spellCheck('vbform', '$editorid', '2');"><div class="imagebutton"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_editor]/spelling.gif" width="21" height="20" alt="$vbphrase[check_spelling]" /></div></td>

What does it do ?
It replaces vB spell check with this one. I'm so happy it works with french language

Precision : i've got vB Gold Version
