To install the spellchecking dictionaries you need to download the spellchecking dictionaries for the languages you want, each file is a zippped SQL file containing the dump of a table used for spellchecking, the table is a collection of words for the language. Install the spellchecking by adding the table to the MySQL database where Tiki is installed.

Example:
mysql tiki < words_en.sql u tiki_user -p

Once installed the spellchecking will be able to check words for the language installed, if no dictionary files are installed for the language being used the spellchecking will just pass any word as correct.

In order to enable the spellchecker you have to enable/disable spell checking for the different Wiki objects from the admin screen, you can enable the spell checker for all or just some of the objects in Tiki.

The spellchecker can be used in:

• Wiki Pages
• Articles Reviews & Submissions
• Weblogs

Example:
