MindTouch makes authoring web documents painless with FCKEditor. This built-in WYSIWYG editor is similar to that of a light weight word processor. There is no arcane notation to learn and memorize. Instead, you can format text with a click of a button and even copy/paste from other web pages and office applications. Likewise, inserting images and links is done through dialogs, which allow you to browse the wiki hierarchy or search for keywords. Below you will find the various toolbar sets that can be changed easily through the MindTouch Control Panel.

Go into {WEB_ROOT}/editor/fckeditor/core/editor/dialog/fck_spellerpages/spellerpages/server-scripts/spellchecker.php and make sure the current aspell_prog is defined (Note: by default the C:\ path for aspell will not be commented out):
//$aspell_prog = '"C:\Program Files\Aspell\bin\aspell.exe"'; // by FredCK (for Windows) $aspell_prog = 'aspell';
Once you have the above configured, then clear your server cache by going to Control Panel -> Maintenance and History -> Cache Management -> Clear Server Cache
Then clear your browser cache and do a hard refresh.
Note: By default the spell check uses a web based spell checker. If you'd like to use the local spell checker, follow the steps in the documentation.
