Spell Checking

This website contains links to software which is either no longer maintained or will be supported only until the end of 2019 (CKFinder 2). For the latest documentation about current CKSource projects, including software like CKEditor 4/CKEditor 5, CKFinder 3, Cloud Services, Letters, Accessibility Checker, please visit the new documentation website.

If you look for an information about very old versions of CKEditor, FCKeditor and CKFinder check also the CKEditor forum, which was closed in 2015. If not, please head to StackOverflow for support.

Check spelling is a function in the FCKeditor which will allow you to check if you didn't make any mistakes in spelling while writing.

To activate the function simply press Spellcheck.gif on your toolbar. A popup window called "Spell Check" will appear:

In the top of the window you will find a field with your text. The first word which is incorrect will be highlighted and will also appear in the field called "Not in dictionary". To ignore the mistake press "Ignore" or "Ignore All" if you want to ignore the mistake in the whole text. If you want to correct the mistake:

1. choose the word you had in mind from the list below the "Change to" field. If you peak a word it    will appear in the "Change to" field.

2. press "Replace" and the highlighted word will be corrected. If you want to correct the same mistake in the whole text press "Replace All"











When the check spelling will finish an information about the amount of words changed will appear:

Pressing OK will end the spell checking procedure.
