Under Font formatting does it say: Language: Do not check spelling or grammar? That indicates that the language setting for that word is set to not check. Click on the screenshot to go to Suzanne Barnhill's article on this. The screenshot above is from a computer with only one language installed, with spelling and grammar installed and active. May 27, 2019  Symptom 1 Spell Checker does not recognize misspelled words in Word 2010 Symptom 2 When you click the Spelling & Grammar button in the Proofing group on the Review tab in Word 2010, you receive one of the following messages. Apr 22, 2019  I've just started using a new version of Word - Word 2019 - and I can't get the spell check to work properly. I'm used to words spelt wrongly having a line underneath them in the document, so I can immediately spot them and correct them. That's not happening.

I am currently using TinyMCE 4.0.5 with jQuery package and noticed that spell check is not working

i am using a simple set up

With this set up i can see the option 'SpellCheck' under 'Tools' but when i click on 'SpellCheck' it throws an error'Error: GENERAL'

Also there is an error in the error log 'File does not exist: PATH/tinymce/js/tinymce/plugins/spellchecker//

but i can see the following file in the above path PATH/tinymce/js/tinymce/plugins/spellchecker/plugin.min.js

According to what I've found elsewhere, the spellchecker plugin was powered by Google service - which has been retired. So at this time there does not appear to be an integrated TinyMCE spellchecker solution.

However, you CAN enable the browser's built-in spellchecker by doing the following:

Be sure to remove spellchecker from your toolbar and your plugins list.

The current version of the tinyMCE PHP speller checker (2.0.6.1) seems to be for tinyMCE 3.x not 4.x. I had the same issue as you when setting up 4.0.12. Even if I set my spellchecker_rpc_url to point to rpc.php from the 2.0.6.1 php, it doesn't work because the code doesn't line up with the JSON request being sent by tinyMCE.

There is unreleased work on the tinyMCE spell checker git hub https://github.com/tinymce/tinymce_spellchecker_phpIf you download this and use this instead you should have more luck. Beware though, the Google API doesn't exist any more, so you'll have to use enchant or pspell. Knockout 2 download photoshop cs6.

There is also a proposed solution to updating the 2.0.6.1 code to work with 4.x on this post http://www.tinymce.com/develop/bugtracker_view.php?id=6309%29.

Ran into this and solution is even more weird then problem itself: the thing is, that when plugin misses spellchecker_rpc_url parameter, it simply queries the same directory he's in, that's why we get

File does not exist: PATH/tinymce/js/tinymce/plugins/spellchecker/

Set spellchecker_rpc_url parameter to your script URL and this error message will be gone.

I did a lot of R&D how to make it work with PHP and details are given below:

  1. Download the community version of tinyMCE form the tinyMCE website. In the download directory, there is a folder spellcheck under plugin folder in which there is a file plugin.min.js. Reference to this file needs to add in the client side code.

  2. Download the PHP spell check code from the given URL i.e https://www.tinymce.com/docs/get-started/spellchecking/#phpspellcheckercomponent

Host the same on PHP server. And make sure that the enchant option is enabled on PHP server.

You can check the same via phpserverurl/spellchecker/info.php, find the enchant module [to check the enchant option is enabled or not, on PHP server][1][1]: https://i.stack.imgur.com/fBzDm.png

If the file phpserverurl/spellchecker/info.php does not exist, then create a new file there and write the following code:

Client-side code for tinyMCE:

// Scripts reference

Back tinymce.init
({
mode: 'exact',
selector: 'textarea',
height: 540,
with: 'auto',
menubar: false,
toolbar: 'spellchecker formatselect bold italic strikethrough forecolor backcolor link alignleft aligncenter alignright alignjustify numlist bullist outdent indent undo redo removeformat',
toolbar_items_size: 'small',
branding: false, // To disable 'Powered by TinyMCE'
statusbar: false,
plugins: 'spellchecker',
spellchecker_rpc_url: 'phpserverurl/spellchecker/spellchecker.php', // this is url of php server where spellchecker code is hosted spellchecker_languages: 'en'
});


Click on spellcheck icon when the editor is rendered and it will give you the suggestions to correct the misspelled words.

If your tinyMCE code and spellchecker code is hosted on a different server then add a line of code in the header of spellchecker.php file i.e given below

In order to resolve the cross-domain request, otherwise, there is no need to add the above line of code.

Thanks.
