Despite my having it as a selected option in Firefox, the Firefox spell checker does not work in Word Press. Why?

I keep finding, and being given advice, that if I select the spell-check as you type option in Firefox options, I will get my text spell-checked in WordPress. But it just aint so! What is the problem between Firefox's spell checker and WordPress? Even WordPress says my browser spell-checker should work, but it doesn't and never has! Help....

You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages sub menu. At least one dictionary should be installed and have a check mark to indicate that it is selected.

  • open the "Add Dictionaries" link to install a dictionary if you do not have one.

The spelling checker is enabled if [X] "Check Spelling" in the right-click context menu has a checkmark.

You can enable or disable spell checking globally:

  • Options/Preferences -> General: Language and Appearance: "Check your spelling as you type"

You can look here for dictionaries:

Note that for spell check you need a dictionary. A language pack provides string translations for the user interface.

You can check on the about:config page that layout.spellcheckDefault is set to 1 (multi-line) or 2 (single-line).
