It's the Opera browser that is red lining my spelling. Using a VPN, I cannot change the settings until I log out and I am downloading some files at present so that will have to wait.

I lived in the Old Dominion. A small place called Berryville. Most of my workforce were from Front Royal area.

Just bloody ignore the red line FFS. What a ridiculous post. Who CARES about the red line? Its not like it actually changes the spelling. Just another waste of time post.

I'm convinced CEO does not have a 'spell checker' at all, and that the site setting has no effect on whatever spell checker you are using.TOG wrote:The site (CEO) setting is British English.that genius wrote: ↑Wed Sep 12, 2018 6:06 pm Your keyboard setting is dominated by the site setting.

Whoaaaaa. someones having a hissy fit. Time of the month perhaps?
Maybe the thread on Wanking or abusive language about litter makers may be more suitable to you than a straightforward question.

Being pedantic, I like to use British English just as Americans prefer American English. Seeing the red lines brings into question my spelling.
Unlike some who obviously never made it past kindergarten and probably cannot spell their own names.
