Hi there. I haven't written a post since switching over to HUBS. I just finished my first draft since the switch. However, I tried to check spelling and grammar but there's no

All content generated through the Author platform is "error free", so that is why we vacated from that...along with all browsers now having built in editors. So they are much less of a requirement and we didn't want to add unnecessary bloat the platform.

Thanks, Kyle! I have not used the author platform yet. I did not know of it until now. I'll look further into it to help me with future posts. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!

Terese

Sounds good, I highly recommend you use it. It will really help you speed up the process. :)

Hi Terese: All browsers have spelling & grammar checking built in. I don't recall the WA content editor ever having these features. But if it did at some point, they may have removed it since the browser(s) already have it.

Hi Dave,

Thanks for your reply. WA must have removed it, but I will get used to being without it. Thanks again!

Terese

Depending on your browser, and your personal preference, you can probably find a spelling/grammar browser extension to enhance the functionality. I just did a search in the Chrome web store and found several. I've always been satisfied with the built-in browser functionality so I haven't tried any extensions.

Yup, that's correct, but you can easily enable it per browser as it is built in :)

Open Google Chrome.
Go to Settings.
Click Advanced > Languages.
To the right of Spell check, please turn it on or off.

You can get it via Google if you use Chrome, it has been changed

Hi Abbie. Thanks so much. I am using Chrome. Would I need to update Chrome to get the spelling and grammar function?

See the above comment with the image :)

Open Google Chrome.
Go to Settings.
Click Advanced > Languages.
To the right of the Spell check, please turn it on or off.

One thing to note, with most browsers there is not an option you can click to spellcheck an entire page at once. It basically happens on the fly while you're typing. Any spelling or grammar issues will get a red/squiggly underline to let you know there is an issue. You can right-click on that word/phrase to see the suggestions. I took a screenshot example of some intentional errors I created in this comment before I posted it. 😉

Got it. Thanks so much!

Terese

You are welcome, Terese :) Please keep us updated on your progress...

That's what I'll miss about the WA spelling and grammar function. You hit that button and it will take you through the whole page. I don't have any red, squiggly lines in my text so I am all good now. I appreciate your response!

Terese

Yup, that's correct, but when it was there, it didn't really catch everything... Mind you, I usually edit in the Grammarly app in addition to the build in browser feature :)

This is helpful. Thanks, Abie. Do you have Grammarly pro?

Yeah, I do :) And yearly for great savings

Hello,

I have been experiencing technical difficulties with my website lately. Some featured images are missing on the homepage (screenshot below).

Just when I am

I hope you get it sorted soon, Terese!

Jeff

This sounds like a question to tech support. Please put in a request and if you can take a picture so they can see what is happening. They may ask for that.

Hi John,

Thanks for your reply. Is tech support the same as site support? I did email site support and they told me to inform the theme provider. I emailed the theme provider. Just waiting to see if they'll be able to help out.

Terese

I like using the Wealthy Affiliate site support. Yes it is the same.

Hello,

I have been trying to solve an error for weeks that I have been experiencing. I have reached out to the theme provider a few times, but they are not interested in

Hi, if you want to chance it and correct , at least back up your site. You can use AIO Migration or Updraft.

However, although this is a theme error and whether you are receiving support from the developer, it is worth a try asking support if you could help with a resolution.

Hi Abie,

I will try asking for support first. Thanks so much 🙂.

Hello,

I am having trouble in wordpress. I want to add a welcome sidebar instead of a static page. I have been provided instructions from the theme provider of my blog (T

Suggestion: You may want to add your code inside the Ad Inserter plugin, as you do not want to edit your themes files directly as you will lose your changes when the theme updates or if you change your theme.

Hi Abie,

I will install this plugin and see if that helps. Thanks so much.

Terese

It seems the code you have is trying to inject PHP where it doesn't belong which is inside an HTML container, though I could be wrong because the screenshot image is too small to read the corrupt text.

I just opened one image in a different window. I was able to blow it up and see better. Still somewhat blurry, but way more visible. Not sure if you are able to do the same, but thanks for your reply.

Terese

I tried but my eyesite is poor because of my diabetes. I need another set of glasses and I just got these in February.

No worries at all. I appreciate your effort!
