GrumpyGnome Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I think we may have to wait a few days for that area to be populated and functional - DA has said it's on the snagging list. GG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrumpyGnome Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Spell checking is not on the forum but your browser can provide that......method varies between browsers GG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Manuel Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 (edited) To get spellchecker working in Firefox, you need to download and add a dictionary and enable it. It's under Addons in Firefox. I use the recommended British English dictionary. Once setup, it works on all web sites. The dictionary and instructions can be found here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/british-english-dictionary-2/ Edited February 12, 2021 by Gary Manuel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flight1 Posted February 12, 2021 Author Share Posted February 12, 2021 (edited) well spellchecker works now . cheers Gary . I had set the language in settings to English UK and I presumed Firefox default would have had a dictionary . Now i can blog with out looking so illiterate with added dyslexia ? .

Try this, flight1; OK, it requires a bit of work to set you up but once done, it'll be easier from then on. You are currently logged into the Forum but need to log in to the RCM&E magazine website - click on the RCM&E logo, top left of page. Click on Login/Join - it should bring up a panel which contains your email address and starred-out password. Change the email address to your forum user name, keeping the same password and you should be able enter the site. Once in the magazine website, click on 'Subscribe' and the drop-down menu includes the digital archive - the March issue is in there?

GrumpyGnome Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 I just tried that ..... I get subscription options for a magazine called Total Carp (no, I have not typed it incorrectly........) GG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete B Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Hmm - sounds fishy to me.....? Have you successfully entered the magazine site? If so, you should get the home page which looks like this, with 'My Account' rather than 'Login/Join' in the top right corner? Hover your cursor over the 'Subscribe' button and the dropdown menu lists, in the last but one option, 'Digital Archive'. If you just click on the 'Subscribe' button you do indeed get to the 'Total Carp' offer. Hope this helps... Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bott - Moderator Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Just to clarify, when you're in the forum, clicking the RCM&E logo takes you to the home page of the forum. To go to the RCM&E mag homepage you need to click the link "RCM&E Home". In the desktop version, this is under the logo. I'm mobiles it's I. A drop-down from the 3 bars icon.

GrumpyGnome Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Ah, got it thanks. Need to be signed in as user name and not email address - and need to be quick finding the correct menu option as I am using a tablet and have no mouse to hover ..... But I am in, that's the main point, so ta v much. GG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
