hi there,
i've found some nasty problems in function SpellCheck(), causing it to not work with my (bulgarian) language. The problem i've encountered is in 1.1RC2, but the problem stays in RC3 too.
I will not describe the pain in the ass i've had until i've figured out that not aspell/pspell is the problem.
I'll instead point the "solution" i've found, adding some code and pinning some values in:
All of the quotes are from Subs-Post.php
first, just after
function SpellCheck()
{
global $txt, $context, $func;
insert
setlocale(LC_ALL, @$txt['lang_locale'] ); //edi
then, about 10-15 lines below, find
// Next, the dictionary in question may not exist. So, we try it... but...
$pspell_link = pspell_new($txt['lang_dictionary'], $txt['lang_spelling'], '', strtr($txt['lang_character_set'], array('iso-' => 'iso', 'ISO-' => 'iso')), PSPELL_FAST | PSPELL_RUN_TOGETHER);
i've commented this out and placed this line instead
$pspell_link = pspell_new('bg_BG', 'bulgarian', '', 'cp1251', PSPELL_FAST);
then, below, find a line like this:
$alphas = 'љћабвгдезийклмнопстуфхцшщъыьэя[:alpha:]\'';
and replace it with
$alphas = '[:alpha:]\''; //edi
and it works. actually, the last line changed causes the problem - 1) it does not work, 2) it does not contain some chars - like ж,ч,ю and maybe some others from cyrillics, and i am quite suspicious if it will work universally.
setlocale and [:alpha:] does the work, i dunno if the second (pspell link) change is nessesary, but i beg you consider using not $txt['lang_character_set'] but different, new language setting, for example, $txt['lang_spell_character_set'].

i did try but when i pess Spellchek all boxes are empty - i use smf RC3 and i have pspell library installed on red hat linux.
Thanks
btw i try bulgarian spellchek
ivo,
sorry did not read this in time - in 1.1 (1.1.1) there is surely a change in the spell check.
anyway, the first post's code was taken from a sucessfully worked with spellcheck forum, tested also on a "clean" install. if you do have problems - maybe you should check if the aspell/pspell is working correctly on your server.

Let me try it
