No spell checker
Author: Dan B.Two Questions and then my comment:
1. Why, still, no Spell Checker?
2. Why can't I save my project as in the past, and now having to open software with Admin permissions? (I lost a lot of work when I went to save and it would not let me -- I then opened with Amin permissions and it would save. This is new and I don't like it, what is the fix? Sorry, three questions)
I have been using this software for years and requesting a spell checker. And I see others requesting, now, this same thing. Years ago I received a follow-up email from tech and was told there are not plans for adding a spell checker, it would be too hard, with all the different languages. At first the answer I would receive on the user forum would be a, Thank you, they would submit this as a suggestion. Then I got the email that told me, in certain words, to go fly a kite. After hours and weeks devoted to developing the Website -- working up material in Microsoft word, copy-paste to Web project and losing all formating and having to reformate in the web page software editor -- what a hassle. So, to this day the same old pat answer is being handed out, like the one to Danny S. -- same answer they used to hand me. So, I found a spell checker that would work in this Web builder, so I stayed with Website X5 Elo but guess what happened, after so many more years? Unless I open Website X5 1.5 or 2.5 as Admin. the Project work will not save, you lose it all. Open and giving Admin permissions and it will then save current project work -- you find this out after you do a bunch of work and try to save -- you lose it all. Okay, so then using Website X5 with Admin permission, and guess what? Now the Third Party Spell Checker I found will not work. Right back where I started a decade or more -- What is the answer? The one they gave me, years ago, the same one they gave user Danny S. -- what does this mean? It means that they have no intentions of adding a Spell Checker to this software -- you pay a premium price for their product and it is their way or no way. I am looking to start over with a different Web Builder. The problem is not the Software ....
Hello. I sent a notification about your question to the company employees, expect an answer from them here in the comments.
Hello Dan
I'm sorry that you're experiencing such issues with the software, but I would like to clarify a few matters about this
About the Spell-checker, I am afraid that there's not much to add. Although it has been requested for some time now, it is currently still not planned for the software. I'm sorry to say that there's no news on this
About the issue with Administrator privileges, this is definitely something regarding the device on which the software is used, since the software itself doesn't require administrator privileges to work.
The reasons why Admin privileges might be required are many, perhaps one of these matches your case. It might happen if
1_ If the antivirus is blocking the software. You can fix this by adding the software to the exceptions
2_ If the projects are being saved in a protected Windows folder that requires special permissions to write in
3_ If the software was installed as Administrator and then ran as a normal user
Please take a look at these and let me know if you manage to solve it. Alternatively, simply configure the software to always run as administrator
Thank you
