User functionality
Proofreading modes
- The check-as-you-type mode instantaneously detects writing mistakes and provides suggestions on-hover.
- The proofread-in-dialog mode aggregates all the issues detected and suggestions provided.
- User-level custom dictionary allows end users to create personal dictionaries with specific words and terms (complex words, acronyms, proper names, etc.) and use them while working with WordPress. Once a word is added to a personal dictionary, it will not be considered as a misspelling, and will appear in the suggestions list. All words you add are stored either in the browser local storage or on our cloud and are accessible from the browser.
- Organization-level custom dictionary allows creating dictionaries that extend the vocabulary of the standard dictionary with custom words specific to your organization culture, industry, domain, etc. All the words added to a dictionary by the admin will be available to all users within your organization.

更新日志:
3.1.0 - 2026-04-24
- Refactored plugin internals into focused classes while preserving the public WProofreader class and option names.
- Fixed PHP 8 compatibility issue in the bundled settings API.
- Enabled local user dictionary access for Free edition and disabled autocomplete for Free edition via supported bundle configuration.
- Enabled AI writing assistant for Premium edition by default.
- Added filterable WProofreader service configuration and reduced hard-coded endpoint duplication.
- Hardened the settings AJAX handler and content cleanup.
- Added a few global activation toggles (disabled by default):
-
- Enable in admin area to run WProofreader across the WordPress admin.
-
- Enable on front end to run WProofreader on the public site.
- Fixed issue where spelling autocorrect could modify URLs; now disabled by default in link-related fields.
- Updated service path to remove the legacy component ssrv.cgi, which is no longer used.

- Fixed issue with user preferences not being remembered. A recent issue caused user-selected options (e.g., selected language, ignore settings, enabled check types) to reset on every page reload. Now, these preferences are stored.
- Compact badge enabled by default. Users can now click directly on the badge to launch the proofreading dialog. In earlier versions, this required hovering over the badge and selecting the “proofread in dialog” option.
- Improved suggestion mode in dialog. The dialog now opens in an extended view that shows all suggestions at once. Previously, users had to go through suggestions one by one.
- Renamed WeDevs_Settings_API to WSC_Settings_API and WeDevs_Settings_API_Test to WSC_Settings to avoid naming conflicts with other plugins using similar settings API classes.
- Fixed issue with RTL (right-to-left) languages visibility in the Language dropdown on the plugin Settings page.
- Minor update resolving the URL input problem in the Classic Editor.

- Fixed issue with the dialog mode.

To do so, please navigate to the badge (orange bubble located at the right bottom corner of the editable block) > click on the gear icon > toggle “Correct spelling automatically”.
- Fixed a minor issue with the plugin permissions and an error shown on the settings page.
- WProofreader is disabled in the table element in the Gutenberg editor to prevent breaking a table and overall glitching.
- Fixed the integration issue that appeared in v2.6 with the Classic editor when Gutenberg is disabled.
- Enabled error logging mechanism. Now errors will be displayed on the plugin settings page, which will help to troubleshoot issues faster.
- Improved the integration with the Gutenberg editor. Now WProofreader will be automatically started in all editable elements of the editor without the necessity to click on each element to enable the spelling/grammar checking.
- The orange badge is disabled by default for all types of elements including the Gutenberg editor. There is a setting allowing to reactivate the badge.
- The dialog mode option for proofreading is disabled by default for the Gutenberg editor.
