I followed the instruction to the “copy into” point. It doesn’t do anything in Wordpress when I’m in Write mode, which is the only place I’d be using it. So how do I “activate” it and what would I modify in config.cs?

And just thinking…. when these plugins are offered up, of course its always appreciated, but a little less assumption that everyone can read the software writers mind and a lot more in the way of installation instructions would really be a great help.

I’m pretty sure, although I can always just delete it and try again.

Sorry I have no idea why. Did you extract the folder correctly into your plugin folder?

I like this plugin, and I think it’s a great idea, I am however having a little trouble with it. Whenever I use the check while typing mode, it starts marking all (or most of) the words as misspelled. I toyed with the config.php and tried enabling and disabling the Google service but no luck. Any idea what might be going on?

Sorry I didnt notice plugin guidelines eariler. It seemed to me that plugins that dump their files into the plugin folder was much easiler to install.

Its slow now because the php script makes multiple calls to the webservice for each word. The script is supposed to be able just to make a single call, but I have not figure out how to do that yet.

Thanks for your comments.

Cool. My host just deleted aspell so I was looking around for an alternative..

I like the setup a lot. My first thought of what it could use is a way for the user to add their own words (personal dictionary, that is).

I also noticed that the plugin expects the spell_checker directory to be located under /wp-content/plugins while the plug-in guidelines state that supporting files should be located under /wp-content. It just threw me for a loop for a second when I went to install it.

I haven’t used it much yet here, but from the looks of it, it may be rather slow at checking anything over a paragraph or two. Perhaps if it cached the words it looks up it could run faster. (though I know nothing of it’s inner workings as of now)
