Spell Check on Search

Post by Amy W »

Would it be possible to add a spell check to the search box? Like on the Bing search, where it asks if you meant to spell "car" instead of "carr". In the listing of search topics, I've noticed quite a few misspelled words, so a spell check might make searches a bit more productive for everyone.

Interesting Idea! I've been doing some thinking about spell check for submissions and the like. If we implement it this would be another great place to put it in place.

At the moment we've a few priorities that are in front of this one, but I'll keep this in mind.
Thanks!
