Only yesterday I installed it on here, and the spell checker doesn't work at all. It worked absolutely fine on my own computer as soon as it installed. I've checked in the Options under the Advanced tab to see if it is ticked and enabled - it is. I've cleared all of my private data and even tried downloading and installing the browser twice - didn't work.

Does anyone have any more ideas on how to get this working?
 
Mine doesn't work whenever I quote someone's posts. Then I right-clicked and saw there was a "Spell check this field" option. You might want to check that out.

Edit: Apparently you need to check that option every time. :confused:

I figured it out: You need to use the basic post editor (the default one), not the WYSIWYG editor.
 
I always use the default one, so that isn't the problem. It's the same on other forums as well.

I tried right-clicking where I type to see if the "Spell check field" option comes up. Oddly, it doesn't at all, and does on my computer.
